[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 141331, member: 84"] My advice, for what it's worth...... (coming from a person with alot of anxiety issues) Stay in school. It will be really tough going back. Not just academically, but as far as the anxiety goes as well. Drop the two most stressful course that won't make your schedule wacky or too difficult to manage.. In a few weeks if your stress levels haven't improved, you can drop the remaining classes if you need to. But I'll be honest with you. If I let it, my anxiety would keep me out of school. It is a constant battle that I won't let it win. This quarter I almost backed out of. I almost changed my mind about doing the RN program at all. Money is a [B]huge[/B] factor. But so is my anxiety and honestly it was the sole motivator behind my wanting to forget about the RN program and go to work. So what did I do? I signed up for classes. Why? (because we truely are suffering in the money dept right now) Because the money problems aren't going to fix themselves. Following my dream [B]will[/B] pull us out of the bottomless hole we're trapped in right now. And it is tough. Really tough when you're not sure you can make the house payment or if there will be food on the table. But going thru these rough years will be worth it once I reach my goal. And yes, there are days when I have to repeat that to myself a million times. ((((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
