To be diagnosed w/ADHD do i need to see a psych Dr or can my primary do the job?

i can sympathize, i did very well in school but have taken the RN NCLEX 4 times now and still am having trouble passing, i was thinking maybe trying hypnosis to help w/test anxiety, i am very frustrated and want to get this behind me as well, i wish your daughter best of luck and to keep trying Don't Give Up !!!!!

i.ve taken the RN NCLEX 4 times now and still not achieved my goal, i knw i have major test anxiety, have thought about hypnosis, has anyone ever tried this method to relieve test anxiety?

I wk for the V.A. now and still do some PRN wk for a state correctional facility here in FLA, corrections is easy wk and the pay is good, but you lose any skills you may have aquired, it's best to keep it as a pt. time job plus DavidB is right the inmates can be very manipulative, i've wked in corrections for 4 yrs, it takes a special person as some people can't wk behind locked doors and razor wire.

Don't give up !!!!! You can do this...A&P is a pain in the A@#$ just keep at it, i had to take several meetings w/my professor she helped by suggesting a few books that weren't on our list of books plus this made her aware that i was serious about completing the class.....i've also heard that the teachers at HCC really don't care if you pass or not it's entirely up to ea. student....Good Luck

Beware Galen students i also went to both of their programs LPN & RN and after not passing the RN NCLEX they wouldn' t even return my phone calls regarding helping me find ways to successfully pass the test, just remember schools are a business they're nice to you when you're paying them your tuition but when all is said and done they'll drop you like a hot potato....FYI

I agree w/the walk away and don't look back part, schools are a buisness they want your money, i went to Galen who alos boasts about their passing rate, i didn't pass my RN NCLEX and when i contacted them about possibly attending a study class they dropped me like a hot potato, wouldn't even return my phone calls, so right then and there it was a cold slap of reality, the only person i can count on is myself and the kind folks i've found on this web site.

Hi Angel, thx for the response no i haven't tried that source but will def look into it, and yes i think i do have test anxiety but was afraid to take a xanax befor taking the exam for fear of being too relaxed, was considering trying hypnosis to see if maybe that might be an answer...thx for the kind words of encouragement, i want ot get past this so i can move on, thx for the support. Jeff

I am in the same situation as i also have taken the nclex 4 times and have not passed, plse anyone who may have any type of insight on cracking the test plse let me knw, although this site has been very uplifting with all the kind words of encouragement, like those before me i am just soooo frustrated and don't even knw where to begin to start to study.....

Hey, yes i can relate to your situation as well i've taken the test 4 times and am still having trouble passing....am very frustrated and don't knw where to begin studying again....
