Hello. I hope that someone has an answer to this question. I took the boards today and feel very anxious myself. The time can't go by fast enough.

hi nurse tech,

i believe in prayer. i also test tommorow 7/25. the last couple of days have been so streessful because i have been constantly have nightmares and i time i had a dream that i failed and the next day i had a dream that i passed. so last week wednessday i was having palpitations difficulty breathing and chest pain, so i took sleeping pill to help me sleep, when i fell asleep i had a dream that i have heart attack, i quickly jump up from my dream and started praying to God. i say to myself that i'm not going to let this exam to kill me whatever the outcome God have reasons for everything. i prayed more and more relax you wont even know i have exam tommorow. i'm going to watch the pirate of the caribean tonight before going to bed.

After the exam, I would go home and relax. It may be easier said than done, but there is nothing else you can do once that computer shuts down. Maybe take a nice, warm bath or shower, get a good book, and wind down. I remember crying when I got home, because I SWORE I failed, but was pleasently fooled. My husband took a shower, came downstairs, and told me "We are going for a ride. You need to come down off of this". I meekly followed him, but it was the best thing to do, because we spoke about it, and went shopping. Then, I came home, curled up next to him, and cried myself to sleep. The rest of the weekend, I read books until I got my results.
