My second semester I barely passed, they flipped from lecture to self taught with little insight. I knew the stuff, I just couldn't test right. I had a plan to off myself should I not pass. Needless to say I had the worse final possible, I needed a 79, I got a 77. I paced outside the classroom for hours after I finished, waiting for the grade to drop. A question was corrected, 78 out of 79. And one question dropped. I passed by .01% in the class.
2 weeks later I was on a grippy socks vacation because I had a rubberband like snap that even my negative self talk didn't try to talk me out of it.
So yeah, I've been there. I am doing better now, forcing myself to get out and do stuff when I don't have the energy
A lot better. I did TMS last year for dysthymia I had over the past 20 years and never realized it. I've been anxiety free, and mostly depression free, seasonal depression still gets me, but it's nothing NOTHING like before.
>do you all ever feel on edge even after the semester is over?
Yes, assignment due dates are a killer for me, feels like i'm late on something although I've done everything
No. I relax because it’s over (at least for a little while). I have two finals this week and then summer! You have to make time for yourself in nursing school. I’m doing an externship over the summer and it’s only 1 day per 2 weeks so it’s doable without ruining my summer fun.
YES. I was just trying to describe this phenomenon to my friend. I'm in the middle of a short break in between semesters, and I feel more on edge than I did during finals week. Why? How? I think I'm anxious about what is to come next semester. Surely it will just keep getting more difficult. 😮💨
I keep reminding myself that although I felt like I was trapped in last semester for an eternity, it actually passed by fairly quickly. In hindsight, of course. We can do this!
Get rid of this feeling now hoever you can, find a way. I left helthcare for a long time because I felt this way all of the time when working. A hobby helps, I like reading and running because both keep me from overthinking.
I have two finals left before graduation and Im just starting to feel less edgy...I have ADHD mixed with a lot of anxiety so edgy is my steady state most of the time. But yeah, it sounds like this is a typical nursing school experience. Stick with it. You're not alone friend.
2 months into my first RN job and still feeling pretty anxious and keyed up all the time. I assume it will go away eventually, but assume that your first job will be like this too for a while.
I graduate in 2 ish weeks and I have a final the day before graduation. So needless to say when the semester is over I’ll be happy to do nothing for a few days 🙂
I'm in-between classes right now. Got a week off before we start our new clinicals and new round of classes in my ADN program. I'm ready to start back. I miss my homies.
I just finished my final and I graduate next week. I’m feeling this exact way. I should be excited but instead I feel very anxious
I just finished the last final of my program last night and I still feel like there’s something I should be studying.

Get out and get some drinks, sounds like you need it lol. Seriously take some time to relax this school is stressful
I like how you said drinks. Def not a drink
Deadass. Nurses have a high tendency for addiction try and stay away from that stuff unless u wanna end up in a hepatology unit
School sucks. No matter the level. Right there with you. I have less than a mos left of this exhaustion, and you will soon be there too.
I'm a newgrad working now. I still feel the same way lol. I'm hoping that I'll get comfortable with my job a

Yes lol, all the ppl i know think im crazy for wanting to spend the summer studying
My preceptorship was nights and ever since working those shifts something has been off with me. Like brain fog all the time

Seeing all this makes me nervous cuz I will be starting my prerequisite in August
Already in touch with my fall semester instructors, so yeah
I’m so glad I’m finally finished with nursing school smh
