Just last week I resigned from my nursing job - I'd been there just on six months. I resigned not only from my position but consciously resigned myself from "nursing" altogether. Nothing against nursing, I just cannot do it - it's too stressful & taxing on me both physically & mentally. I've never really enjoyed nursing in the decade I have been a nurse & I believe that it is one profession that you really do need to "like" to be good at it.
So what now? I have no idea. Prior to getting a "job" I'm going to concentrate on restoring myself a little - be it physically, mentally, emotionally or spiritually - cause I've treated myself pretty bad over the last few years.
My recent trip back home had a profound effect on me - I found myself having feelings for my family that I had not had for a very long time. Not that I didn't love my family beforehand it was just that I was somehow anaesthetised - like I had somehow lost the ability to love my own family, and to a greater extent God. It is probably because the depression & despair are lifting & for the first time in ages I can see & feel past my "self".

I'm so sorry to hear that you resigned Mrs. Sue. I hope you'll be able to concentrate your time on restoring yourself and having a bond with your family. I wish you good health and hopefully, you'll be able to take a rise from your seat one day and to find a job again.
More power,
Louise :)
Thanks for your well wishes Louise, I'm seeing leaving work as a positive - I've been unhappy at work for a very long time.
I just had a look to see if you had been posting...I am so sorry I am behind the times and missed the last few posts.
