Wow do some serious networking, read 48 HOURS TO THE WORK YOU LOVE. Keep in mind there are many jobs for nurses but sadly many of those jobs are modern day sweat shops. Another crop of nurses just graduated today. Maybe think about specializing. Yes it is a female dominated field make sure you find a balanced work place or an area of medicine where men gravitate to. You will see the gender games starting in school. good luck

I am in a similar situation. I'm on vacation time right now that's why I found your post. Read 48 DAYS TO THE WORK YOU LOVE it is helping me find my mistakes its easy to say "Learn from your mistakes" , but there is a lot more to finding a your mistakes The book really helped with the part that said look at the areas in your life where you've been successful other than work, it worked I have a great wife, no debt other than mortgage and I've kept myself healthy. Really brought me back to life and out of despair. I'll have good thoughts and prayers for you.
