Exhaustion and nursing seem to go hand in hand, but they don’t have to! If you’re fed up and ready to leave nursing altogether, this post is for you!
Ready to leave nursing? Does this describe you:
- Exhausted, but picking up extra shifts to help your understaffed unit with no end in sight?
- Running errands and taking care of everyone else on your day off?
- Feeling like there’s no time for YOU?
- So busy you haven’t gone to the gym or made a doctors appointment in ages?
- Can’t remember the last time you did something for yourself?
- Or even got a restful night’s sleep?
- You’re just so ‘tired of being tired‘ you question why you got into nursing in the first place.
- Sick of feeling like you’re missing out on life and you’re ready to leave nursing completely.
- Frustrated because your friends and family just don’t understand?

So what does exhaustion look like?
- It’s losing your temper over something small or insignificant.
- Trudging through the day, feeling like you’re in a thick fog.
- Crying in your car on the way home from work.
- Collapsing on the couch the moment you get home.
- Cancelling plans with friends or loved ones because you just can’t find the energy.
- Self medicating with alcohol or pills to help you cope.
- Neglecting your own health and wellness
