Things you would LOVE to say to your nursing instructors...
I would say: " Do you remember-- what it was like to be a student? To stay up all night studying and then barely pass? To go to bed at 3 am and get up at 5 am? To be so sleep deprived that you fantasize about sleep? To kind of forget what your family and friends look like?" Also... "Are we reading the same text book you are because some of these test questions are out of the blue?" And (to one particular teacher) "Do you stay awake at night thinking of ways to make my life a living hell? Are you always this unhappy or do you just hate us?" But also there are some teachers I respect so much and have learned so much from them that "thank you" is not enough! :bowingpur

Underwear and white scrubs?
If you wear white scrubs you must wear nude panties! At my school we were not allowed to wear thongs and "nude" panties were considered part of our uniform. So I'd go with nude panties if I were you!!!

Migraines....Anyone else have 'em?
Yes! Someone who has migraines too! I have had then for 12 years but they were under control til nursing school. My head pounds so hard I can hear my pulse in my ears. I take maxalt too and sometimes it helps and sometimes it doesnt!!! I mean when your head hurts and then you start vomitting... just makes your head hurt worse! What to do????

So overwhelmed! I can't do this
Maybe you should try just a med/surg floor, where things are less critical. You wouldnt feel so overwhelmed! You can work so many places, doctor's offices, home health, hospice, etc. So maybe you would work better in a less stress environment! Hope the helps.:icon_hug:

What mantra is getting you through nursing school?
My mantra? I am not sure I have one but someone once asked me "What do they call the person who graduates last?" The answer? A NURSE!!! And I keep telling myself to just keep on keepin on!
