I wanted to introduce myself. I'm Carlie and I am student adult nurse.
I was recently diagnosed with ASC last month and I am awaiting ADHD assessment.
I love being a student nurse and I can't think of doing anything else now, but I do facer adversity and I do feel alone with my diagnosis in the work/ placement environment.
I was wondering if there were any nurses or student nurses here that might want to share their
experiences or difficulties going into social, highly-pressured working environment and any coping strategies?
Thank you!
Hello there, @NAS73516. With your diagnosis, I believe you could work as a nurse in a hospital. Because your diagnosis does not interfere with your employment, I believe it is acceptable to work with it. However, you will be subjected to stares and contemptuous attitude from both employees and patients. However, I can guarantee you that if you perform a good job, people will treat you kindly. I also recommend that you read [removed by Mod] for additional information on patient care. I believe you should broaden your knowledge in order to do a better job.
