I’ve been thinking about this for months and I’m unsure of what to do. This app has helped me so much. There are so many supportive people on here so hopefully I can get some advice.

I started getting an AS in health sciences which is a prerequisite for the nursing program at my university. It is VERY hard to get into this program and I was informed by my advisor that I probably wouldn’t make it. But I could always go into another schools nursing program. The thing is.. I always doubted myself as a nurse. I had my mind set on this at the same time. I enjoy taking care of others, enjoy learning the material etc. I guess I just feel intimidated that I won’t be enough. There’s so many people in my classes that will catch onto concepts and I’ll struggle sometimes.

On the other hand, I could major in psychology which I was always interested in since high school. I enjoy listening to others, giving advice, but I keep feeling like a failure if I give up nursing? I spent 3 years learning all about physiology, anatomy, pathophysiology, health sciences. I feel like I’ve learned so much.

I’ve taken career tests and I’ll get both of those careers every time. I don’t know what to do. I’m 21 years old and I have a 6 month old. I would like to have my mind set before this fall semester comes back around. I refuse to take breaks.

Any advice?
