How can I mentally be okay during training?
Back in 2024 I lost my gymnastics coach to suicide and then gymnastics just got harder. My mental state at the time was not good because I had just moved to a new house and I was going to switch schools in the upcoming year. I was leaving all of my friends and the only person who helped me through it was my coach. My mental state is much better after going to therapy for a while. But sometimes I just cry at gymnastics because I can't forget about my coach. Any ideas to keep her with me as a good thing and not cry during practice?
How do I know working as an Oncology nurse won't affect me mentally or if it's even right for me #Fall25?
I know I will get to experience different specialties in nursing school and get a taste of what I may like or not like to work in. I lost my mom to ovarian cancer. I am currently on my educational ride towards my nursing career. I really feel like I would love working in oncology because I will be able to relate and connect with my patients. Many people say it would make not having my mom around even harder. Should I look for a different path instead of oncology, or consider a different specialty? What all can I expect in the day and the life of an Oncology nurse compared to a different specialty? #Fall25
