Are you happy ?

I have been learning and exploring the medical field since I was in high school (15yrs old). My school offered a health academy program for students who were interested in the field. It was from 10th-12th grade. I ended up doing CNA as my ROP class my senior year. Since then I have been a cna for 6+ years and I’m currently in an accelerated BSN program/ nursing school. I fell in love with the field. I have worked in skilled nursing facilities, sub acutes, hospital (med-surg, tele, onc, icu). I cant see myself in any other career. I hope to get my Nurse Practitioner one day (maybe a DNP🤔) while I work on that, I want to get certified as a CCRN. I’m not sure which specialty I want yet (I have 2 years left to figure it out) but I’m leaning towards Pediatrics and Mother-Baby

What career are you in ? What is your title ?

If you work in the nursing field, how did you choose your specialty ?

why you are feeling lonely in a group
for a really long time I would feel lonely, but not when I’m alone, it would actually be when I’m around people. this is very odd to me because it would be around people that I would call my friends or family as I later comes to realize it was not the right people for me and I decided to let a lot
