The patient dropped it, I redirected them back to their room, 5+ security showed up. No one got hurt. My coworkers were nice and sent me home early. Still, I had a real deal panic attack (hyperventilating, chest pain, nausea, etc etc.) after work while sitting in my car. This event triggered some pretty awful memories from my childhood + a violent SA from when I was a young adult. I don’t think I can do nursing anymore. I’m so tired of feeling scared of my patients. Any advice is appreciated.   submitted by   /u/Throwawayyawaworth9 [link]   [comments]
