Is it normal to be scared about getting out of high school?

I'm so worried about school, getting out of high school, going to nursing school, getting a job, house.. All of that. Normal!? And does everything end up working out?

    ya, i felt the same back then. but it'S only cuz... you just DON'T know, you know. it's the future and it'S school life and then all of a sudden real life in a way. but lucky for you, you even know that you're going to be a nurse so that gives you a head start. i had absolutly NO idea on my last day of school. so take it easy.

    I think everyone worries about it, your friends all move off in different directions, you see a couple of them every now and again, but it's not the same as when you were "kids". It's even worse if you live in a small town cause everyone you've really known all have such high hopes it seems, and when you just wind up at a grocery store and you feel like you're going nowhere, that's when you bottom out. But, you stop worrying about it eventually, you catch up with friends when they're in town, get an awesome apartment, and you feel like "holy cow, I'm an adult... When did that happen?"

    So don't worry so much, at least you've got a plan for the future, stick to it, see it through. =]

    When you get to college everybody acts like they aren't nervous, but really they are. Don't worry about it they are the best four years of your life.

    Yeah I think everyone get's a little scared at that. When you're a senior in college, you'll get scared again. I wouldn't worry about it. Once you're in college, you be so relieved that it's not as bad as you thought.

  • Everyone does it! If you get lost, try not to be stressed about everything and take opportunities as they come.

  • i was scared once, but then i had a lesson about it, my teacher was saying about all the stuff , she said don't worry about the stuff in the future, what matters is the present, u need to work hard to achieve that goal that you want , and then she started talking about how she achieved her goal , and it worked fine for her. I agree with House , every thing will eventually work out and that time you would know what to do.
