Stressed !!

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

I am so tired and stressed...

I am nervous and I do not know if I am studying right...

Everything is not going right at all...

I missed my august exam because I got really sick and was hospitalized...

I did well in school...but I do not know why I can not pass NCLEX...

I am not seeing my friends and I cant even look at my parents...

I have younger sisters that look up to me...

I am sooo embarrassed...

I am so depressed and confused...

Everything is falling apart...it's just not right...

Hang in there and take a few deep breaths. You can do it, have you talked to your doctor about exam anxiety?

Relax! a lot of us here felt the same way when we received the result that we didn't pass. That's life, but it's not the end of the world. There's always light at the end of the tunnel.

I'm currently working on my second attempt. Got suzanne's plan. It's been helping me a lot. Thought I'm doing a better strategy than ever before. Just like you I'm not seeing my friends and family/relatives because I'm trying to really focus on my review. I have a 7 yr old son who looks up to me but a wonderful husband who's always been supportive. So hang in there....there's always a chance and never lose hope.:)

First you have nothing to be embarrassed or shameful about. You made it through school, alot of people don't. You know the answers to the questions, calm down and think about the question your being asked. My mentor gave me the same advice, I had horrible test anxiety; whenever I took a test after working I would be tired, sleepy and totally unfocused. Believe or not that was when I did my best, because I was on autopilot, unable to overthink or second guess. I am not saying to put yourself in this position, only that once you realize its not the answers your missing but the focus its alot easier to fix. Good luck!!!
