Let me start off by saying I loveeeee Reddit! Secondly, I just got done talking to ChatGPT because I really don’t have anyone to talk to about my phobia’s and when I do, I feel super silly and ashamed because I know some ppl just can’t resonate on the level I need in order to feel supported. Anyway, im a home health nurse (peds in home) been doing this for the last 3 years, started when I was an LPN and now as an RN I just recently graduated back in Dec when I passed boards. This is my last case (I work diff cases with diff agencies) as I just recently accepted a new grad position at a nearby medical center. This case I’ve been working, is a permanent case M-F 8a to 5p and I do genuinely love it, client is a 2yr old girl super sweet, love the family, but I realize they do have bugs. Last week there was an ant issue on the countertop and the parents took care of it but that’s not it though. I have a really bad scolopendrophobia (fear of centipedes) chileee…. I came in this morning and seen two back to back. This isnt my first time seeing them, I started seeing them maybe I’d say a month after starting. When I first seen one tears literally came to my eyes and almost had a fckin panic attack. I just started this case in beginning of March so not that long. I bought centi repellent with natural ingredients but the mom was allergic to the herb smell. I bought ultrasound repellent plug ins but they don’t seem to work. I’m also arachnophobic but dont really see too many of those thank goodness but I really cannot do this shit. I don’t start my new job until June 15, which is about a month from now. I’m really sick of sitting in ppl houses even though this is a very laxed job. I planned to give two weeks and have a week off before starting but I’m so uneasy coming in here that I may just leave after this week and use apps to pick up PRN shifts I hate this so bad. I’m trying to leave responsibly but my mental health is also important as well, I can’t even think straight right now and I keep thinking I’m seeing them or something is crawling if something touches me, I can’t think about eating my lunch I’m just so anxious I really don’t even want to come back after today 😭

This message if for single moms who are NOT struggling, have family support, have great careers with flexibility to travel. I’m looking for a single mom/friend group. I’m not married. It seem like other single mothers around me are struggling and can’t really afford to travel or they’re still “male centered” chasing behind men in hopes of getting married or what ever and that’s just not the space I’m in. Does anyone have any advice on where I can meet other single moms to maybe travel with (travel buddies) with our kids and solo date travels as well? Brunch dates with kids or no kids ect. I’m juts looking for a community of moms that’s not centered around struggling all the time or centering men all the time. Please I hope that that is possible.

Hello, this question is for the graduates of Capella FP. I’m currently in RN-BSN FP and wanted to know what will my translated grades look if I score a basic on a competency with everything else being distinguished or proficient? Just wanted to get a general idea so I won’t feel the need to revise every single paper if I don’t have to. I just want a decent overall gpa when im all done. Aiming for 3.0 and higher for graduate program applications. I already know what each one is equivalent to (distinguished=A Proficiency=Band so forth) but it’s hard to get an idea when dealing with competency based assessments. 😩
