Hello boxofrain, of course nursing is a tough and rugged profession but you are pushing yourself too hard. You need to learn how to walk before you can run. Go find a slower paced facility and build your confidence and skills first. I see a career nurse in you, because for people like you once they get it, the sky is their limit. Mind you that nurses eat their young you need learn to fight for your self. Do not not quit, GO GET THEM.
