  1. Old new RN with Social Anxiety

    I don't have social anxiety but I am diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder and I'm very awkward around others. I go to CBT with a psychologist and I also see a psychiatrist for medication...
  2. What was the HARDEST PART OF NURSING SCHOOL for you?

    The hardest part of nursing school was saying goodbye to any social life that I had, say goodbye to any tv show series that I loved to follow, and getting use to no longer caring about putting make-up...
  3. can we have an honest discussion about foreign profs?

    I can sympathize with what the OP is feeling-- my mom is full Korean and I was born, raised, and lived in Korea until I was 13 years old-- so you'd think I could understand anyone with an Asian...
  4. Here we go..... I have 24 Class C Misdemeanors...

    This occurred in 2003, the last 2 checks hit the DA's office in January 2004, so I was arrested once in 2003, and once in 2004. The date in a previous post was most likely before because I had planned...

    Oh, I am definitely counting my blessing because each check was written for
  6. Here we go..... I have 24 Class C Misdemeanors...

    Oops. So now I'm bad at math. Good catch! It wasn't 2001 (that's when I graduated high school) it was 2003 bc I was 21 yrs old and met him at a bar on my 21st
  7. Here we go..... I have 24 Class C Misdemeanors...

    I couldn't deal with the checks at the time because the DA said I needed to come up with $12,000 for legal fees, bounced check fees, and fines in a 2 week period-- there was no way I could do that!...

    Is it just me or am I seeing more threads about the Ok BON? that does not make me feel so good about my
  10. OK BON

    Oh no!! My lawyer said the same thing about the investigator that just left the board!!! He said she was very fair and just. He said we needed to hope that this didn't go to the committee because...
  11. OK BON

    So what class are they making you take? I'm sure my license (if I even get it) will say severely reprimand on it too, but chin up-- you're not the ONLY one with it on your license. Shockingly, a lot...
  12. Here we go..... I have 24 Class C Misdemeanors...

    UPDATE: Today I met with my attorney, which somewhat eased the anxiety of the whole situation, but then got me a little fearful again because he said, "I have to admit, this is my first time...
  13. Here we go..... I have 24 Class C Misdemeanors...

    I'll definitely keep everyone updated. I keep saying, "If I can survive nursing school and all that goes with it- I'm pretty sure I can survive anything." I just wish that at age 21 someone gave me a...
  14. Funny things patients say !

    last week in neurotrauma icu we had a 16-yr patient that was in for an ATV accident.... well his catheter wasn't draining like it should have so I told him I had to flush his foley. I pulled out my...
  15. Nursing School = Divorce???

    Well, he filed for divorce, so maybe the rumors are true.... nursing school = divorce. He said that I wasn't "maturing at a rate comparable to his", but what he really meant to say was that he traded...
  16. Nursing School = Divorce???

    Well.... if your marriage isn't bound tightly it does tend to fall apart. I'm in my last year of nursing school and definitely have seen a disconnect between my husband and I. He doesn't want to hear...
  17. Your Favorite one liner used with patients

    I live in Oklahoma and lately we've had a few minor earthquakes.... But one morning during my clinicals on the post-partum floor we had a tiny earthquake (4.2 on the richter scale)- small but enough...
  18. Legitimate Pain or no?

    I have never been so angry or frustrated in my nursing school career!! Please correct me if I'm wrong because I've been banging my head against the wall to understand the rationale that was given to...
  19. Legitimate Pain or no?

    I did ask the patient's nurse if there was a recent pain consult (since she was admitted on the 1st of September and I didn't see one in her chart) and she told me that it was not her place to ask the...
  20. Legitimate Pain or no?

    Don't get me wrong, I completely understand what my professor meant by picking my battles-- it's just that I truly felt that this was one of those battles that I couldn't just stand down and watch as...
  21. Class President Problems

    I wish I had the problem of people making a big deal about it-- in my case, people tend to ignore the fact that I am the President and they continue to make decisions without my approval, belittle me...
  22. fellow classmates and HIPAA

    It started today during clinicals. I pulled out my iPhone to check something on my Taber's App and noticed I had a new message from my friend that was doing rotations on the floor beneath me. The...

  24. One of my professors has it out for me.....

    Actually, everyone was right. About two weeks ago the professor asked me to speak to her in her office.... she said she wouldn't push me so hard if she didn't think I could handle it, and that she and...
  25. Background Check - University of Colorado Denver

    I had a somewhat similar situation, and I knew it wasn't going to show up on the background check because my school specifically only does a state background check, and this situation occurred in a...
