So I started my #4Th placement last Monday. Community nursing.
Going to peoples houses and...talking to them? Seeing if there is something wrong...I think?
I'm being looked after by two mentor's, they re both very similar. They overwhelm me with information and then I cannot think what to ask, what to say, what to comment. I end up with 'oh really? oh OK' and feel a bit of an idiot. They said I need to ask more questions, but I don't quite know what to ask.
Is it my fault or theirs? Both.
I should have a greater subject knowledge by now, but having said that, all of my other mental health placements have been in a mental health hospital, actually looking after patients
Community nursing is completely different, so it feels as though I'm having to learn and to start all over again. It's very similar to social work. I do Not want to be a social worker.
I have gained confidence, but the bar just keeps getting higher. I'll appreciate this in a few years time, no doubt.
Anyway.
Do not watch paranormal activity. I sat through it, laughed and mocked it.But it seems it's left a subconscious chilling feeling in me. I keep waking up and thinking threes a spirit in the room. My dreams seem cursed too.
One time a few years ago, I had a dream which I don't remember what happened, I only know the feeling. A feeling of real dread, it was chilling. I believe I experienced a small, minuscule feeling of evil.
In the next week I felt an overpowering good feeling in a dream, again which I cannot remember. My whole body was tingling and I woke up feeling ready for the world and feeling blessed. I believe I experienced a small, minute feeling of good.
I'm just plugging away at this now, working hard, playing a fair amount. Life will improve, just believe it.
Oh and, whoever you are, watch this. Your very much welcome.
Very informative Bob, PA had no lasting feeling on me unlike the alcohol we drank after, that, along with 2 festive bakes, made me feel quite ill, anyway....
