Hello! I have been a nurse for about 6 years and I wanted to make some extra money when my full time job stopped offering OT. I currently work in a CVICU and I love it! I picked up a PRN job at another hospital in the ER and I have been struggling with anxiety. It is very different than my full time job and I'm starting to wonder if I should just quit the PRN thing. I feel anxious before I go to the point of tears. It's hard because I don't feel like the people at the PRN job are very friendly and I struggle feeling comfortable there. I'm so worried about looking stupid. I just want to know how others have coped with these types of feelings. When I first became an RN I struggled with work anxiety as well. Should I just quit this PRN thing? I'm still in orientation there.
