Hi all - I have a low threshold for stress. I have had melt-downs during each attempt at nursing school. I have taken the first semester twice - almost to the end. I'd say that each time I dropped it I allowed the clinical instructor to stress me out. I feel stronger now. I exercise, I eat right, I sleep well and think that I have a good attitude. I know what to expect and I know how to handle difficult situations. To attempt nursing school for the third time, I have to write a letter to the head of the department. I haven't sent it yet.
Thank you so much, hurley and non for the inspiring and encouraging words! I will go cautiosly and find the right spot for myself. I wll know in May if my request to re-enter will be granted. Since I have just about been through the whole first semester twice, I also requested to challenge nursing 1 with their exam. We shall see what they say.

I think sensitivity, once you master it, wi be an extremely valuable asset to you and your future in nursing. If anything, it means you Actually care.
