Question for all of you nurses/students! I have had ADD since I can remember... I haven't been on medication since I was 12, and I am now almost 28. I am starting my pre-reqs, and when I took Biology last semester it was the hardest class I have ever...

Thank you :) I currently am not on any medications, but I do it really healthy!! I will admit I don't exercise too much, but I do enjoy my hikes. I am going to look into medication, and I am also going to start exercising more in order to clear my he...

Where do you live? I would love to volunteer at the l&d unit! I will need to go to different hospitals and see if they offer that volunteer position. :)

I was diagnosed with ADD at the age of 6, and having ADD has been a big challenge for me. I have not been on medication since I was around the age of 12 and now I am almost 28. I have a very hard time focusing in school and although I have managed g...

That is a good idea. That would be awful if I took medication and it turned out really bad right before a test!! Just thinking about that makes me nervous!! haha

Last semester I took Biology to get a taste of science....... well turns out I hated it. I am an A student, but received a C in Bio and felt proud of that C! Hardest class ever! Granted the teacher was not the best, but I still had a very hard time f...

Thank you so much!!!! I am going to take anatomy and see how that goes :) I feel like I need to give it another shot. Also you are right, I feel after taking Bio I realized how I should be studying. Taking a science class is much different than human...

I hate everything about vomit.. I have had this phobia since I can remember and I am now 27. I am determined to get over it but I know it will take therapy and lots of it. It is so weird to have a "vomiting" phobia... it is kind of embarrassing becau...

This phobia has taken over my life at times. I am hoping to start therapy for this in December but I question how much it will help! My phobia is so bad I can't even help my daughter when she is sick I ask others help out... I know people are going t...

I couldn't find any recent posts to this question so here we go: I am currently doing pre-reqs and I will be done within a year or less. I am feeling overwhelmed by the amount of programs in the bay area. I am looking for an RN program, but I feel ev...

Thank you so much!!! I appreciate your response.
