Any insight from other guys that have large builds? I need cammies fit a large person but not someone that is obese. All the tops I try on are extremely wide in the stomach area while being very short(bell shirtish) XL seems to be good fit as far as shoulders/arms but definitely too wide and not long enough. Give me some brands if you've had success

I have Nursing Fundamentals, Pharmacology, Long-Term Care(Clinical), and Nutrition in Nursing

So here's my quick background. I am a 26 year old male nursing student that got out of the Marine Corps just over 2 years ago. I plan to work 12 hours a week because my job counts part-time employment towards my pension and I intend to hopefully stay at my employer after I get my RN. I am married with two little boys (1 and 3). I have all of my pre-reqs completed so I will only have to do my NURS classes and clinicals. My program is for a BSN and is pre-licensure (students aren't RNs). I am anticipating an easier time than some fellow students because 1. i have all pre-reqs done 2.am used to bootcamp/rigid scheduled life and 3.have a Bachelor's and used to APA and long papers. However, I am concerned because I suffer mildly to moderately from PTSD. I do not freak out or anything just get very anxious. Anxiety has been good for a few years but just after deployment I did have "attacks". I am nervous that a new level of stress will bring with it a new level of anxiety. My loose plan is to: Wake up at 5 (M-Sat) (Sunday-sleep in maybe) Go to Gym at 6 (hour workout M-Sat) Go to school/clinicals at 8 or 9 (depending on day) Stay at school until 6 (on M,W, F)(Classes are 1/2 of that allotted time) Work on 2 days from 730-2:00 then study at school(T, TH) Spend time with family just before kids bedtime (roughly 6-8 pm 3-4 days out of week) Weekends- (Keep open for studying, hour or so of yardwork/housework, etc.) Nights-either study or watch some tv to relax until 11 at latest This is a rough plan but it already has some study time built it. It treats my school schedule like a work schedule (8-6) M-F. But leaves room for additional studying (weekends, after 6 pm on needed days). I intend to listen to lectures (recorded) during my workouts, pack lunches night before, and use study groups. Does it seem as if my schedule allows for enough study time even with 12 hours of work?? Does my schedule look too planned out, not planned out enough for study time, etc? Any tips or pointers from nursing school vets? Any tips for male nursing students to avoid drama but also form relationships with peers? (I am an extrovert but by no means what any drama, etc.) Thanks for any help and sorry this post is so long! Sincerely, Excited but Anxious Nursing Student
