So I'm not going to totally divulge my diagnoses but unfortunately due to a traumatic childhood I have bad anxiety amongst other issues :/ I was just wondering if any of you battle with some form of mental illness but still make a wonderful nurse? I'm like 99% sure acute care isn't for me neither... I think I want to work in the least stressful environment as a nurse. What would you say that is? I'm thinking like working for a primary care physician in a clinic setting. Thanks!

Yes I feel the same way you do and I'm almost done with 1st semester already. I've wanted to be a nurse since I was 16, but in my heart my dream job is to own my own successful online business. But idk how to really do that... plus I've waited YEARS to get into the program I'm in which is really highly rated. So I'm going to try my best and stick it out. I can always do an online business on the side especially this summer! But nursing is also a great career.
