  1. Managing chronic insomnia with RX meds while on TPAPN?

    AesthesiaSeeker posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    So I’m going to start Texas’ peer assistant program and clearly drug testing is going to be a part of it. I’ve been reading through the information packet and it’s very, very sensitive to just...

  2. Not going to sign TPAPN Participation Agreement. What comes next?

    AesthesiaSeeker posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    Got my psych evaluation done for Texas’s TPAPN program a couple of weeks ago and it’s finally come around to signing time. Been going to AA for over a year, went to in-patient treatment, got my...

    AesthesiaSeeker replied to AesthesiaSeeker's topic in Nurses Recovery

    @TriciaJ You are brilliant! My license was initially delinquent because I was in Minnesota which is non-NLC and I was looking to renew it. I’m just going to let it lie, give myself 1+ years of being...

  4. Not going to sign TPAPN Participation Agreement. What comes next?

    AesthesiaSeeker replied to AesthesiaSeeker's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm not too worried about the licensing issue; I'm looking to go back to school for my master's in bioinformatics and work in health data science. You bring up a good point about consulting with an...

  5. Is this TPAPN order fair?

    AesthesiaSeeker posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

  6. Is this TPAPN order fair?

    AesthesiaSeeker replied to AesthesiaSeeker's topic in Nurses Recovery

    ***EDIT: Before I go any further, I want to specify that by "fair" I mean fair compared to other TPAPN board orders people have received. Yes, I did wrong; yes, I must face the consequences - I have...

  7. Managing chronic insomnia with RX meds while on TPAPN?

    AesthesiaSeeker replied to AesthesiaSeeker's topic in Nurses Recovery

    So I can’t be in TPAPN because I take sleep meds for insomnia and have been for the past twelve years? What next, are they going to tell me I can’t join because I have autism? Because I have that...

    AesthesiaSeeker replied to AesthesiaSeeker's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Honestly I am going to fight that tooth and nail. They are not going to dictate what prescriptions I take. I will hire a lawyer if I have

  9. Non-bedside nursing jobs while in TPAPN?

    AesthesiaSeeker posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    So I'm a nurse who for all intents and purposes should probably have not become one - I have Asperger's & did fine in nursing school & clinicals - but completely couldn't perform working full...

  10. Got the dream job, not quite sure if I'm walking into failure

    AesthesiaSeeker posted a topic in Critical Care

    Hey y'all, I gotta back up a bit because I need to give this a little context: In 2016 I was a new grad and started a Neuro PCU residency. Problem is, that only lasted 6 months. A family member got...

  11. Got the dream job, not quite sure if I'm walking into failure

    AesthesiaSeeker replied to AesthesiaSeeker's topic in Critical Care

    Thank you. Seriously, thank you. I have always wanted to do ICU nursing and I can't think of a better place to do it. I also kinda have Asperger's so learning can be a little difficult as I remember...
