Running out of gas

woody436 · Oct 11, 2008

Hang in there! The last semester is always the toughest, but you can do it. You've come this far. Just remember, you're being taught to pass the NCLEX, not necessarily to practice as a nurse on the unit/floor :)

6 weeks is a cakewalk at this point! Good luck to you!!

Yes it's like the last semester of a pregnancy. You just want to get it over with. HANG IN THERE!

Go ahead and scream! You deserve it. Just know that there are those of us out there that can't wait to be in your shoes. You can make it!

Ok, I have 6 and half weeks left b4 I am completely done nursing school and I am so exhausted and tired. My brain is tired and so is my body. I am tired of the foolishness and these crazy instructors, giving us incorrect information. I feel like I want to scream.

I completely relate!!! (although you will be done much sooner than me!) I have a terrible case of Senioritis! Feeling very burnt out and ready to just be done with it all. Think of the reward you'll have in 6 weeks, though! I wish I were to the point you are:yeah:

I remember that feeling. Hang in there.

Pebbles, if you afford it here is what I highly recommend: a pedicure. Just those few minutes of having someone else scrub and massage your feet can restore a little sanity.

But I really feel you need to be refreshed right away in order to get a second wind.

Best of luck to you!

I feel your pain.

I grad. in April 2009; This is the semester from H-E- double hockey sticks.

I'm totally out of gas. I'm runnin' strictly on fumes

Hang in there :specs:

Please do what ever you have to to relieve your stress. I found myself in the ER today with a severe anxiety attack. The DR told me that I could not keep on going the way I was. He said that I was going to have to find an outlet for my stress or give something up. So scream if you have to.

Oh No - Hang in there!!

You can do it!!

You can see the light at the end of the tunnel at this point, you just have to push to get to the summit!

Ok, that was 2 analogies mixed into one - but it makes sense!

"I know I can, I know I can" Wash, rinse, repeat this as often as necessary.

Turn to us whenever necessary, we will be your cheerleaders! :yeah: :specs:

Thank you for your support and ecouraging words. I went to toppers this weekend and had a full body massage, manicure and pedicure. Oh and I forgot to let you guys no, that this tuesday is my FINAL NURSING SCHOOL EXAM, and then I have 5 weeks of leadership. I hope that is less stressful. Thanks again for the support.
