I Know I Need To Find A PMHNP Preceptor ASAP – Where Do I Even Start?

👉CURRENTLY ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR PMHNP PRECEPTORSHIPS ON-SITE & TELEHEALTH — CALL, EMAIL OR DM FOR MORE INFO OR TO SCHEDULE AN INTERVIEW👈

Every PMHNP student reaches this moment — the urgent need to secure a clinical preceptor. Without one, graduation can be delayed, anxiety rises
and doubts about the future set in. You are not alone — this is one of the biggest challenges in nurse practitioner education.

Signs You’re Struggling with Preceptor Stress:
• Constant worry about falling behind in your
program
• Feeling unprepared and unsupported
• Sending out requests without responses
• Considering settling for a less-than-ideal site just
to move forward

Where to Start:
• Tap Your Network: Ask professors, former
colleagues, and classmates for referrals.
• Professional Groups: Join PMHNP associations
and Facebook or LinkedIn groups where
preceptors often connect with students.
• Clinical Sites: Reach out directly to outpatient
practices, community clinics and mental health
centers.
• Mentorship Programs: Some universities and
state nursing boards offer structured preceptor
matching.
• Persistence + Professionalism: Always include
your resume, learning objectives and program
requirements in your request.

A 2021 study in Nurse Education Today found that NP students who used structured preceptor support programs had higher satisfaction, reduced stress, and improved clinical readiness (Mott et al., 2021).

Finding a preceptor takes persistence, but it is also your first lesson in resilience as a future provider. Stay professional, stay consistent and keep moving forward.

I Know a Lot of People – Why Do I Feel So Lonely?

It’s possible to be surrounded by people and still feel profoundly alone. Loneliness isn’t about the number of contacts in your phone — it’s about the depth and quality of your connections.

Signs You May Be Experiencing Loneliness:
• Feeling unseen or misunderstood, even in social
settings
• Emotional emptiness despite being “busy” or
“social”
• Lack of meaningful, supportive relationships
• Irritability, sadness or fatigue from shallow
interactions

Why This Happens:
Surface-level relationships don’t provide the emotional support that close, authentic connections do. Many adults fill their lives with acquaintances but miss the deeper sense of belonging that comes from trust, vulnerability and mutual care.

Treatment & Coping Options:
• Psychotherapy: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
(CBT) can help identify thought patterns that fuel
isolation and encourage healthier social
engagement.
• Building Quality Relationships: Focus on
cultivating a few authentic connections rather
than many surface ones.
• Support Groups: Sharing experiences with others
reduces feelings of isolation.
• Medication: If loneliness triggers depression or
anxiety, psychotropics may help restore balance
alongside therapy.

A 2020 study in The American Journal of Psychiatry found that strong, high-quality social connections significantly reduce loneliness and improve mental health outcomes (Santini et al., 2020).

Remember: knowing people isn’t the same as feeling connected. Prioritize depth over numbers, and your sense of belonging will grow.

I’ve Tried Everything & I’m Still Depressed – Should I Give Esketamine Nasal Spray A Try?

When depression does not respond to multiple medications or therapy, it is often called Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD). Living with TRD can feel exhausting—like nothing will ever work. But there are new options — and Esketamine nasal spray is one of the most promising.

Signs You May Have TRD:
• Little or no improvement despite trying 2+
antidepressants
• Persistent sadness, hopelessness or emptiness
• Ongoing fatigue, poor concentration, or loss of
interest
• Suicidal thoughts or emotional numbness

Why Esketamine?
Esketamine works differently than traditional antidepressants. Instead of only targeting serotonin, it acts on the brain’s glutamate system, repairing damaged neural connections and often providing relief within days.

Treatment Process:
• Administered in-office under clinical supervision
• Combined with an oral antidepressant for best
results
• Patients are monitored for 2 hours after each dose
for safety

A 2019 study in JAMA Psychiatry found that patients with TRD experienced significant reductions in depressive symptoms with Esketamine compared to placebo, making it a breakthrough for those who had “tried everything” (Popova et al., 2019).

If traditional treatments have failed, Esketamine may be worth considering. Relief is possible — you do not have to stay stuck.

You’re Back at College – Don’t Ignore Your ADHD & Let Your Semester Get Away From You

Heading back to college is exciting, but if you have ADHD, ignoring it can quickly turn excitement into stress. The structure, deadlines and distractions of campus life often magnify symptoms — and without support, it is easy to fall behind.

Signs Your ADHD May Be Getting in the Way:
• Procrastinating until deadlines pile up
• Forgetting assignments, classes, or meetings
• Difficulty focusing during lectures or while
studying
• Feeling restless, anxious or overwhelmed
• Lower grades despite working hard

Why This Matters:
ADHD is not just about focus — it affects organization, emotional regulation and time management. Left untreated, it can derail your semester, impact self-esteem and increase risk for anxiety or depression.

Treatment Options for Students:
• Medication: Stimulants (like methylphenidate) and
non-stimulants (like atomoxetine) improve focus
and reduce impulsivity.
• Psychotherapy/Coaching: Cognitive Behavioral
Therapy (CBT) and ADHD coaching build
structure and coping skills.
• Academic Accommodations: Disability services
can provide extended test time, note-taking
support or priority registration.
• Lifestyle Adjustments: Exercise, consistent sleep,
nutritional adjustments, vitamin supplementation
and digital tools for reminders help sustain
performance.

A 2018 study in Journal of Attention Disorders found that college students with treated ADHD reported significantly improved academic outcomes and reduced emotional distress compared to untreated peers (DuPaul et al., 2018).

Don’t wait until midterms to realize you’re falling behind. Treat your ADHD now — your GPA, mental health and future self will thank you.

I Started a Business But Now It Feels Like a Job—Where Did I Fail?

Many entrepreneurs launch a business full of excitement, only to later feel trapped in the very thing they created. When your business starts feeling like a job, it is often a sign of burnout, role confusion, or lack of strategic delegation.

Signs You’re Stuck in “Job Mode”:
• Spending most of your time on repetitive tasks
instead of growth activities
• Constant exhaustion and lack of motivation
• Feeling more like an employee than a visionary
• No clear boundaries between work and personal
life

Why This Happens:
Entrepreneurs often fail to transition from operator to leader. Instead of building systems, they do everything themselves. Over time, the excitement fades, replaced by fatigue and frustration.

How to Fix It:
• Delegate & Automate: Offload tasks that do not
require your expertise.
• Revisit Your Vision: Align daily actions with long-
term goals.
• Psychotherapy or Business/Executive Coaching:
Process stress and rebuild clarity in decision-
making.
• Medication & Support: For those experiencing
clinical burnout, SSRIs or anxiety management
tools may help stabilize symptoms.

A 2020 article in Harvard Business Review found that entrepreneurs who focused on system-building and leadership growth reported higher satisfaction and long-term scalability compared to those stuck in daily operations (Feldman, 2020).

You didn’t fail — you just shifted into the wrong role. With the right adjustments, you can reclaim the freedom and vision you started with.

My Wife Seems Sad Since Our Baby Has Been Born – What’s Going On?

Bringing a baby home is supposed to be joyful, but for many new mothers, it can also bring unexpected sadness, worry and emotional changes. If your wife seems down since your baby’s birth, she may be experiencing postpartum depression (PPD)—a common but treatable condition.

Signs & Symptoms of Postpartum Depression:
• Persistent sadness, tearfulness or irritability
• Loss of interest in activities she once enjoyed
• Difficulty bonding with the baby
• Fatigue, changes in sleep or appetite
• Feelings of guilt, shame or being a “bad mother”
• Trouble concentrating or making decisions

It’s important to know this is not her fault — and not a sign of weakness. Hormonal shifts, stress, lack of sleep and lifestyle changes can all contribute.

Treatment Options:
• Psychotherapy: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
(CBT) and interpersonal therapy are highly
effective.
• Medication: Antidepressants may be prescribed
safely, even while breastfeeding, under medical
supervision.
• Support Systems: Partner involvement, family
help and support groups can ease the burden.
• Self-Care: Encouraging rest, nutrition and time for
recovery.

A 2018 study in The Lancet Psychiatry found that early detection and treatment of postpartum depression significantly improved outcomes for both mothers and infants (Stein et al., 2018).

If your wife is showing these signs, encourage her to seek professional help. With the right support, recovery is possible — and both she and your baby will benefit.

I’m About to Graduate My PMHNP Program But I Do Not Feel Prepared at All! Did I Pick the Wrong Career?

If you are about to graduate your PMHNP program and feel completely unprepared, you are not alone. Many nurse practitioner students report feeling overwhelmed, questioning their readiness and even doubting if they chose the right career path.

Signs You’re Struggling with Transition Anxiety:
• Fear of making mistakes or not knowing enough
• Imposter syndrome: “Everyone else seems more
prepared than me”
• Trouble sleeping, irritability, or racing thoughts
about the future
• Considering abandoning the profession before
even starting if there is a true realization of a more
fulfilling career path

Why This Happens:
PMHNP programs provide strong academic training, but gaps in clinical mentorship, real-world exposure and system navigation often leave graduates feeling underprepared.

Treatment & Support Options:
• Mentorship/Preceptorship: Working with
seasoned clinicians builds confidence and
bridges gaps between theory and practice.
• Psychotherapy: Addressing imposter syndrome,
burnout risk and anxiety early can help prevent
long-term mental health struggles.
• Professional Support Networks: Peer groups and
PMHNP associations reduce isolation and provide
guidance.
• Medication (when appropriate): If anxiety or
depression symptoms interfere with functioning,
psychotropics may help in the short term.
• Lifestyle Changes: re-engage in social activities
on hold due to the rigors of school, a sleep
hygiene, exercise, proper nutrition, vitamin
supplementation may help with mood, energy and
stress.

A 2019 study in the Journal of Nursing Education found that structured mentorship programs significantly improved new NP confidence, role transition, and patient outcomes (Faraz, 2019).

You did not pick the wrong career — you are simply standing at the steepest part of the learning curve. With support, you can and will grow into a competent, confident clinician.

My Medication Treatment For Depression Has Not Helped For A Long Time – Should I Try Esketamine Nasal Spray?

If you have been battling depression and your current medications have stopped working, you may be experiencing Treatment-Resistant Depression (TRD). This means you have tried two or more antidepressants without meaningful relief. TRD can leave you feeling hopeless, but there are advanced options available — one of the most promising is Esketamine nasal spray.

Signs You May Be Facing TRD:
• Persistent sadness or hopelessness despite
treatment
• Low energy, motivation or interest in daily life
• Suicidal thoughts or emotional numbness
• Multiple failed trials of antidepressants

Why Esketamine?
Esketamine works differently than traditional antidepressants. Instead of targeting serotonin, it affects the brain’s glutamate system, helping restore neural connections and often producing faster symptom relief — sometimes within days.

Treatment Options Include:
• In-office administration of Esketamine under
medical supervision
• Combined use with an oral antidepressant
• Ongoing monitoring for safety and progress

A 2019 study in JAMA Psychiatry found that adults with TRD treated with Esketamine plus an oral antidepressant had significantly greater improvements in depressive symptoms compared to placebo (Popova et al., 2019).

If your depression treatment has plateaued, it may be time to explore this breakthrough therapy.

How Do I Know If It’s Burnout or Just Needing a Vacation?

We all hit walls at work, but there’s a big difference between needing a week off and experiencing true burnout. Recognizing the signs can help you know when rest alone will not fix the problem.

Signs It May Just Be Vacation Fatigue:
• You feel tired but bounce back quickly with rest.
• You still enjoy aspects of your work but need a
break from routine.
• Stress is temporary and linked to workload or
deadlines.

Signs of Burnout:
• Constant exhaustion, even after sleep or time off.
• Irritability, cynicism or loss of motivation toward
work.
• Feeling detached, unproductive or “checked out.”
• Physical symptoms like headaches, insomnia or
stomach issues.

Treatment & Support Options:
• Psychoherapy: CBT helps rebuild coping
strategies and address negative thought patterns.
• Medication: SSRIs or sleep aids may be useful if
burnout triggers anxiety, depression or insomnia.
• Structural Change: Setting boundaries, adjusting
workload or rethinking career direction.
• Lifestyle Change: Regular exercise, mindfulness,
vitamin supplementation, engaging in hobbies,
socialization and quality sleep promote recovery.

A 2020 review in The Lancet confirmed that burnout is linked to higher risks of depression and anxiety, underscoring the importance of early intervention and systemic support (Salvagioni et al., 2020).

Vacations refresh — but burnout requires deeper healing.
