Night Shift Sleeping Woes
JessieKRN, I am so in the same boat. I'm miserable. I hate the night shift. I've been up since 2 am and it's now almost 8am. I'm depressed, don't want to leave the house at all (and I need to b/c I have a dog to walk) and all I on my days off is sleep, eat and sleep some more. I've been nursing for almost 2yrs and this is my first night shift (ICU) and I'm thinking of quiting bedside nursing all together and getting a nursing job that's behind a desk somewhere (RM/managed care...something). I have nothing to offer - just venting. Sorry.

Cant stand the wait!!
areafl --- thanks for the words of reassurance... but I'm dying though!!!! I mean some folks fail at 75!!!! I had lots of priority, delegation and safety/contact precaution type questions...no hot spots or select all (which were my weak areas.) Okay -- I know, there's nothing I can do until the results come out... so sorry for the neurotic posts....Thanks for the good wishes and I'M SO HAPPY FOR THOSE THAT DID IT... it gives me hope...

Congrats on passing alegea23!!!!!! I took it yesterday too. The waiting is the WORSE. I PRAY I passed. The waiting is making me sick -- slept but woke up this morning sick and crying... Probably won't get the results 'til saturday I pray.

took the nclex today and I feel like a mess
Hi all I took the NCLEX yesterday as well. Cut off at 75 -- had NO CLUE on how to answer a number of questions and think I made really silly mistakes. I didn't get any hot spots or select all. Lots of priority/delegation and meds I've NEVER heard of. I'm done. I slept last night and got up this morning about to cry.... I took Kaplan and did questions on learningext.com -- but I just don't know. I pray I passed b/c I have a job waiting. It gives me hope to hear about all those that passed recently and gives my angina to hear about those who are retaking it.... What the heck was that?!!!
