Assessment and treatment of clients suffering from schizophrenia and psychosis | Psychopharmacologic Approaches to Treatment of Psychopathology | Walden University
When I initially made the decision to pursue a career in nursing, I expected to gain greater job satisfaction and a sense of purpose—both of which were achieved but not to the extent that I had anticipated. This was due to the fact that while nursing can be very rewarding, it’s also an emotionally and physically demanding field with long hours which can take its toll on one’s mental and physical health over time. This profession is not without its challenges. There are many paperwork requirements and the need to deal with complicated patients.
Due to my inexperience, I faced unexpected difficulties along the way. For example, I had difficulty understanding concepts and felt overwhelmed at how much more there was to learn. All these things compounded together resulted in me not achieving everything I had hoped for when taking on this line of work—but despite these setbacks I eventually managed to find ways around them and am now happily employed in a job that brings me immense amounts joy every day.
