When the thinking is too much...

Critical thinking all day long. Sometimes we are just DONE with it? When to do this, when to call which doc, ugh! Does your critical thinking skills carry over to your home life? Are you overthinking your relationships?

This is SOOOOO me right now! I'm completely burned out on school. The light is at the end of the tunnel (will be done in May!) but it still seems so far away right now. Can't wait to be DONE! In the mean time....no one bother me on my lone "day off"**

** "day off" = still study for 4 hours because the guilt of not doing so negates any possible relaxation that might occur...LOL :)

OMG I just finished my first month of nursing school. I had 5 tests this week so I am completely brain fried right now. But like you SopranoKris, I will still study because I feel guilty if I don't lol.

I do nothing on the weekend it is my time to recharge and get ready for the week. Only time I open a book is if I am at work or I have a test on Monday. I think it is important that people take time to decompress and breathe or you wil go crazy (been there not going back). I am a senior nursing student, Jesus I remember my first month of nursing school, denisenorris74 don't want to go back

I refused to discuss anything nursing related on my days off! Definitely no Greys Anatomy, House, ER, or like shows allowed. But then a close friend pointed out that I hang out on ALLNURSES all day. What the world?!!??!!!!:blink:
