I'm going to stop responding to you because I feel as though you statement was bias. Not only that but very negative. Thank you for your time.

I think there is still hope for me to become a Nurse Recruiter but it would be difficult to become a Nurse. Can you tell me more about what your professor said? I am just trying to make a relation to that and this article. Thank you so very much!

Dear K. Everly, I should have mentioned that it was not the case all the time that the therapists would Baker Act me. I have great insight into my condition let me break it down: 4 out of the 14 times I was clinically depressed. Another 3 out of the 14 times my family were dishonest (my mother even admitted to the police who wanted to charge her for it) and had me sent out of spite. It was their dishonesty versus my truth I clearly lost that battle. When a family and a patient has disagreement about what happened and the patient has history of whatever mental illness, they will believe the family (my nurse told me this). I am still taking medicine for it because I don't have evidence that against their claims. The other 7 times I was calling therapists that were not equipped to guide me through trauma. I take full responsibility for it because they were working hotlines. They were not always licensed therapists nor were they someone who should be seen on a fixed interval basis. They were just doing their jobs as I was describing inactive depression later I was informed if I say certain things they will become alarmed. It was 100% my fault for calling those places when their job was to aide people and 9/10 they call for immediate assistance. I have gone to see three other Psych Drs. and one other mental health professional who would not agree that I had schizoaffective even though I tried to explain to them because I'll be honest here I could lose my disability income. At this point I would not just reject a diagnosis as serious as this because I want to become a nurse. That would do more harm for me than good. It was hard for me to even get medication in the very beginning as my first psych eval- the hospital could not diagnose me although I shared so much with them. I was rejected from applying to disability my first round. Also, I was rejected from seeking outpatient treatment. It was very difficult for me to keep pushing through so that someone would finally treat me for mental health. Thank you, AA

Vocational Rehabilitation flat out refused to help me pay for Nursing schoo.

Earlier this year I posted about having a mental health condition. I was just reviewed my medical records and I was actually admitted involuntarily to the mental health hospital 14 times. It has been my dream to become a Nurse since I was a small child. I really want to help patients rehabilitate or recover to the extent of optimal health. I have since moved out of the assisted living facility. I haven't been admitted to the any of the psychiatric hospitals since January 6, 2019. I have been in recovery for a little over 20 months now. I have even taken Human Anatomy and Physiology which I passed with an A. I have also scored an A in Statistics, College Algebra, and English Composition. My current major in undergrad is Psychology and my GPA is now 3.557. I needed a better backup plan than communications. I live in FL, USA. I believe the Nursing Board reviews the psychological history of their testing candidates. I asked one of their representatives who told me " We will have to wait and see until you graduate from Nursing School."

I was recently accepted to Nursing school. I passed the TEAS exam with an overall score of 83 before ever taking Human Anatomy, Human Physiology, or Microbiology. I has been my dream to be a Nurse since I was 7 years old. I am a recent graduate of a Certified Nursing Assistant program at a local Nursing school. I have been hospitalized 13 times all involuntarily for depression. I was mainly admitted for saying I was depressed and not going to hurt myself. It didn't matter to my counselor what I said after I said that I was depressed. In Florida they take it so seriously and even over use the Baker Act. The Baker Act is a involuntary 72 hour hold in the mental hospital. I was diagnosed with many different things. I was even sent to live in an Assisted Living Facility because it was either that or go to the state mental hospital for a long time. They did not specify for how long. I was lucky enough to have never been sent to the state mental hospital. I have not been in the mental hospital since January 6,2019. I want to earn a Bachelor in Nursing Science and maybe even a Master in Nursing Science and become a Nurse Practitioner. I have never been to juvenile, jail, or prison. I do not have any criminal charges against me. I am currently in university studying communication as a back up plan in case Nursing does not work out. I have a 3.723 in my undergrad Bachelor program.
