I'm not really interested in talking to patients as much as I thought, I prefer the science behind their illness, that's what I find interesting, I'm not so much interested in them as an individual I'm finding. I'm not interested at all in lab when we practice things like catheters, ambulation, standard patient care, vitals, etc. none of that interests me. I also find interacting with patients to be really nerve wracking and uncomfortable, and I dread clinical rotations. I thought nursing was what I wanted but now I'm thinking that I just made myself think that this is what I wanted, because that's what everyone was telling me. I am thinking that accounting is more for me, but I'm scared that if I switch now I'll regret it. I'm not sure if it's just the topics we're covering that make it boring or what.

Hi! I'm currently in my first semester of my BSN program and I'm starting to second guess myself. For the longest time before I went to college I was torn between majoring in nursing or accounting, and I chose nursing. I'm worried now that I mad the wrong decision. I'm currently enrolled in Anatomy I and Fundamentals of Nursing, and I'm doing great academically, but I'm bored out of my mind. I find little in Fundamentals interesting an dread having to go to clinical and to talk to patients. I overall am bored by it and can't stand it. Anatomy is better, sometimes. The cellular science was interesting but the actual names of bones and muscles are a real drag. I don't enjoy my classes and feel like I went with nursing because I was listening to everyone around me instead of seeing what my heart right in front of me. I'm talking a business class soon as part of my gen ed, and after that I think I'll decide if I want to switch majors, but I want to know how many others were bored or discouraged while in nursing school. Does it get better, or did you consider switching majors as well? Any words of advice? Thanks for your time! Much appreciated.

And this guy is an acupenturist?!?
