Nursing update!
I have been on pins and needles for two weeks. Every semester we have to re-take our dosage exam and although we have three times to pass, we have to pass with a 95. Tonight was my last chance before getting the boot.
I have huge math issues. Tremendous math issues. So while I know the material, I am so overwhelmed with anxiety that I can't do the test. It is horrible and embarrassing. Not being able to do math has been holding me back for years. I almost didn't go back to college because of the math placement test. I almost didn't take the entrance exam for nursing because of math. It has been a stumbling block for a long time. So...anyway. I went to see psych today to get some coping techniques. I have been to the tutor twice.
To make a long story short. I passed. With a 100%! I am so, so relieved! Now because I have such anxiety they want me to have counseling once a week to help me get over my issues, I have signed up every week for the next three months!
The counseling is free because it is all part of the retention program. Basically, I am getting top notch psych counseling for free!
Anyhow, thanks for all of your positive vibes....you guys rock!
