I agree, it should NOT affect anything. Depression is a medical problem that can be treated, so what is the difference between that and any other medical disease process? I agree.....I think all of the nursing students I have met have been going through some serious situational depression. Hang in there!

Follow your heart...If you truly want this, you will find a way. You may have to hold on with your hands AND your feet, but the rewards are endless. I just finished my first semester and have two children and am a newly wed. There are some days when I am so overwhelmed that I feel like I am not going to make it, but then there are the days when I feel like I am just where I am meant to be. I have sacrificed a lot, but am determined. Your husband will follow your lead on this..if you are in doubt and you are both scared, he may steer that path. If you are excited and positive, he will be too! Hang in there! Suzanne
