NCLEX RN on Monday....can't Sleep!!

Published

So....here I am with my NCLEX about 2 days away sitting at my computer freaking out. I haven't been able to sleep good for a few weeks but its getting worse!! I need to just relax. I feel confident for the most part. My school has a really good pass rate. I did fine in school, didn't struggle much. I have done all of the Kaplan QTrainers on that Slide share site and my scores were 68%-73%. I have gone through the entire (except the last four case studies) LaCharity Prioritization book, and I went through the entire (cover to cover) Kaplan strategies book. I feel good most of the day but when I lay down at night the anxiety hits. Just cant wait for this to be over and to have passed......

You are in fight or flight mode. Your body will sleep when it has to. I was a total insomniac for 2 weeks leading up to the exam and then crashed and got a good night in the night before the exam. You sound ready, good luck!

My test is on Tuesday and I'm the same way! As soon as my head hits the pillow, my mind starts racing and I lay awake for hours. Good luck on your exam, it sounds like you're well prepared and I'm sure you'll do great!

Goodluck to y'all, God is with y'all always pray even when your heart is racing tell God to take control and He will surely do...Pray is the key for everything..I prayed my way out even during my exam on Monday the 13th and God heard my prayer...and i came out smiling....because i knew He was with me during my test....don't panic believe in God and hand Him over everything He will see u through.

Yea I didn't even realize how nervous I was a couple of days before the test until 2 nights before I was up at 230 am eating corn nuts and watching E.

Yea...i didn't realize how stressed my body actually was ! But i took sleeping pill that night..and the night before i was like trust your self ..trust yourself..

just write down 10 times or maybe more...i will pass the NCLEX i will pass the NCLEX..

So I think I'm done studying. I tried to do more questions today and I just felt like I'd already done them before. So I stopped at 40 questions. I'm just worn out and I feel like theres nothing more I could do between now and Monday. I guess I'm just looking for someone to say it's okay to stop at this point.

I was having the same problem (couldn't sleep) until after I took my NCLEX and got my "good pop-up". Lol. I took it yesterday, got my good pop up, and slept for 10 hours straight!!!Just remember to relax and take your time while testing. Until then, you won't sleep. I couldn't! lol
