Dont focus on the little inconviniences that life sometimes throws at you, of course it can get annoying in the moment but dont let it affect you the whole day. Instead be grateful for the little big things in your life.

Im tired of feling this way. This wave of frustration and sadness that i cant make it go away. No matter how mcuh I focus on positive things, exercise it doesnt help. I feel so helpless and lost i dont know how to be truly happy.

when you most need that person to be there for you the’yre no where to be found. This is why you dont rely on others. You really only have yourself.

365 days ago I started my first job as a nurse. I was excited, terrified, and honestly I had no idea what being a nurse truly entailed. Let me tell you what nursing is

Nursing is crying with your patient when they make that decision to go home on hospice. It’s being hit by a patient at 3AM when you’re trying to get a blood pressure, but you know it’s because they’re confused and scared. It’s explaining treatment plans over and over because they just can’t comprehend they were just diagnosed with cancer. It’s not being able to leave someone’s side as they take their last breath because they have no family and you don’t want them to be alone in death.

Nursing is also saying bye to a patient who has been declared cancer free as they get discharged for the last time. It’s singing that song with a patient that has their name in it because it makes them smile. It’s hearing a patient tell you they love you, and they are so grateful for you. It’s sitting in a room with a couple at 3 AM for an hour just to laugh at to the stories they tell of the husband falling off ladders and hurting himself. It’s sitting with a patient and her grandkids as we watch funny videos of her when she was younger. It’s coming into work and seeing a bag with your name on it with Christmas gifts from your patient.

Even after 4 years of college and clinical and classes, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. There are days I feel like I can’t do this, that I’m not good at it or that I wish I had picked something else (and I thank everyone who has to listen to me cry and complain during moments like those. Especially Mom). I leave work in tears many times, either from stress of a bad shift, or from my heart breaking over a patient that I love so much. But it’s also full of smiling and laughter. It’s having the most amazing coworkers who are some of the best people I’ve ever met. It’s about challenging yourself to become an even more compassionate, humble, and smarter person.

Within the past week I learned that 2 of my very favorite patients I ever cared for (both of which I first met during my first couple months as a nurse, when I was new and probably knew nothing) have passed away. It broke me, but I also knew without this job, I never would have had the honor of knowing them or their family. I’m so humbled people allow me into their lives. They let me hold their hand, get to know them, meet their kids/grandkids, and listen to all the stories that make them smile. Nursing has blown my mind, and you can’t truly understand what it entails until you put on those scrubs and work that 12 hour shift.

I have now come to the realization that you dont really love me. You love the idea of me but not me. I love myself enough to know I dont deserve that...

For a long time in the relationship I felt like I gave too much of myself, my time, effort and love. Honestly that’s gonna need to change I need to focus on myself and what path I want to take and that’s okay because not everything revolves around that person either. Sometimes you got to make changes & sacrifices.

I guess that these couple last months I didnt want to admit it but I am depressed. I was so unaware and in denial. Because how can the happiest person become so depressed. Where did I go wrong? Why am I feeling like this. I feel like I shouldnt even feel like this because I know other people have it worse. yet, their strong. I feel like I have it good. But why am I feeling like complete shit everyday. It sucks becuase I have good days, I do go out and do fun things. But it just hits me out of nowhere. One minut I feel great the next I feel Like shit. And I hate it. I hate feeling this way.

I miss you like crazy & I want nothing more than to be with you rn. This feeling consumes me.
