Hate It

How do you know when it's time to just throw in the towel? I hate nursing school. I'm in my first semester of actual nursing classes. Academically, I am doing fantastic. My grades are not an issue at all. I've finished all the academic requirements, other than the actual nursing classes, with a 4.0 and am getting A's so far in my nursing classes.

In clinical, however, I am uncomfortable and have trouble with even the most basic tasks. I hate it.

I have spent several semesters and lots of money pursuing something I think I hate. I don't want to make a rash decision, but I don't want to end up with a degree I hate.

What do I do? I need a crystal ball. Will this all work out? Or do I just cut my losses now?

    My prior career was a lawyer. I think I'm good with thankless people. That was my life. I hate suits. I hate sitting in an office all day. I enjoy my time with the patients. Unfortunately, I don't think I can get paid to chit chat with people.

    I met with the school about dropping out. I am finishing the semester but I don't know what's next yet.
