Positive post- got my first nursing job!

So finally, after 12 years using this site, 24 years on and off self harming, 8 hospital admissions and multiple Mental health act assessments...I am in my final year of my nursing degree! And this week I had a phone call offering me a job as a CPN!

I’m still under services and still struggle at times but despite that, finally, at the grand old age of 31, I’m nearly in my dream job!

Very well done to you, I'm sure you'll be great!



I'm fine! Totally fine. I don't know why it's coming out all loud and squeaky, 'cause really, I'm fine!


Who else is fine?!?!?

Please do not give me virtual hugs unless you are only using the hug function on threads. Thanks.


You can't always keep it separate.
This is happening, this is part of you.

That's great news and a good reminder to all that MH issues absolutely do NOT have to define your destiny!

Have you ever confused a dream with life? Or stolen something when you have the cash? Have you ever been blue? Or thought your train moving while sitting still? Maybe I was just crazy. Maybe it was the 60's. Or maybe I was just a girl... interrupted.
I know what it's like to want to die. How it hurts to smile. How you try to fit in but you can't. How you hurt yourself on the outside to try to kill the thing on the inside. I tried groups, didn't work out just made my depression a lot worse.

Thank you so much everybody! I genuinely appreciate your responses. I finish my CAMHS placement tomorrow before going somewhere else. I keep being told to be more confident lol but that’s not natural for me

Confidence can be hard to find, hopefully you can build it up though.

How are you feeling about finishing your CAMHS placement? Do you know where you're going next?

I bet you will be an amazing CPN!

Well done for everything you have overcome in order to reach this point and for everything you've achieved along the way. You're going to make a brilliant CPN and I'm delighted for all the people you'll be working with that they'll have you fighting their corner and helping them on the path to recovery.



No other sadness in the world would do
