Hello everyone,
Currently I am in school doing pre-req's for my RN, but something happened this weekend to make me wonder if this is the right thing for me. My DD came home from school with lice. I know to everyone else this is not that big of a deal, gross but no biggie. well, I about died, had this huge anxiety attack and freaked out. today, i dont even know what to clean first and i am thinking i probably have it too, but i dont have anyone to go through my head for me so everytime i go to clean something i feel like i am "re-contaminating" it.
I dont know what it is with this. its like my worst nightmare. everytime i go to the movies or sit in a airplane seat its all i can think of and i feel all itchy like theres stuff crawling on me. i dont get grossed out with germs in general, its just this. i already have my cna and work in a nursing home so im wiping poop and dealing with nasty stuff all the time, i even have a resident with mersa that i can deal with just fine. using all the precautions of course, but i dont feel like im gonna catch it or anything.
so what do you guys think, is this a look into the future telling me what i will not be good at?
thanks in advance
