People don’t understand how much it cost to be a Nurse…I’m sorry but I’m glad I got out my mental health couldn’t take it any more

Laura Hagerman :
I worked in the ER for 1.5 years and it drained me, switched to outpatient dermatology (private practice and my boss made it MISERABLE)… really thought nursing was over for me. Then I moved from NY to PA, got a job working at a retirement community (#2 in the country, not giving nursing home vibes) and feel like a new person. It does get better… nursing has so many different paths, keep trying and hang in until you find where you belong!! 🥰

Still adjusting to my new position & feel like I’m not a “real nurse” bc I don’t work in the trenches full time anymore and I have a “soft” WFH nursing job. Wishing you the best of luck on your new journey!!!

Same, loved my coworkers but were always anxious. Made the switch and I just started my outpatient job on Monday in a neuroscience speciality!

That’s the beauty of nursing! If a specialty doesn’t feel right anymore, leave! Good for you for realizing it wasn’t the area for you anymore. You got this ❤️

I felt this!! We rise and we find better in the end! Do what makes you happy and if it’s not that anymore, let it hurt and then dust yourself off 💚
