Publisher's summary

Sometimes, do you just want to stay at home and soak in your bathtub because the thought of going to work and seeing other people deal with illness, pain, injury, or death scares you? Do you still believe that being a nurse is one of the best and most fulfilling things to ever happen to you, and are looking for a guide to help protect your mental health from all the issues associated with your job?

If you’ve answered yes, this book will help you understand the real issues in nursing stress and mental illness and help you deal with them, improving your career experience!

Being a nurse requires you to devote so much time to caring for others that you might forget to take care of yourself. However, no matter what you experience every day, it is important to protect your mental well-being because your job depends on it, and your health is just as precious as anyone else’s. Probably you are wondering…

What does it mean to “take care of your mental health”? Where do you begin? How do you deal with different patients every day without being emotionally attached? Will your experience get better? How do you know that you are having mental issues? These and many more questions are comprehensively covered in this book!

From it, you will discover:

  • The truth about the magnitude of your workload and the common challenges faced by all nurses
  • What depression is, its symptoms, its main causes in nurses, and how to deal with it
  • What anxiety is, its symptoms, what causes nursing anxiety, and what to do in case you experience it
  • More about nursing stress and burnout, i.e., the causes, symptoms to look for, and how to overcome either of them
  • How to approach workplace violence and aggression
  • How to deal with the patients you love and those that blame you
  • How to avoid lawsuits and what to do in case you get one
  • And much more!
