Hello
I am a new RN that passed NCLEX. I am writing to maybe vent or maybe get some advice who knows. Anyways I just found out I cannot be a graduate nurse (you know start working) right now rather I have to wait 2 entire months. At this point I am exhausted and completely burned out. I haven't made any money for 2 stinking years and i literally don't have food to eat. I need a job and I need one now. I come from an extremely dysfunctional family and I am the only person to not only graduate but become a nurse. I even did extremely well in nursing school. The thing is I am at an extremely low point in my life...yes I did pass my nclex in 75 questions under one hour and all that crap but i NEED to eat and pay my rent. At this point I have a friend that is an escort and she advised me to do what she does so I can afford to buy food and pay my rent this month. I never thought I would end up doing such a thing but I am desperate. I have cried all night knowing I will be getting paid for sex but there is nothing i can do. There is no other job in the world that will pay be so much money on the spot. I have no friends that are nurses nor do I feel comfortable reaching out to the nurses I do know. I wish I could do anything but escort but I have no clue as to what and my rent is coming up.
Anyways I hope you guys have a great christmas...
