Why not a Nurse Practitioner? Seems they are more aligned with the parts you enjoy about nursing, come from a care/preventative model vs a PA who is more focused on a diagnosis/disease model.

100% they are planning ahead for the 2028 elections and 2030 midterms. Gotta be able to blame the democrats somehow and the democrats will likely let them do it without forming any kind of real retort.

I’m not a doctor but you should ask yours about depression and take a screening. I felt the same way after leaving a job(albeit by choice) and starting one a million times better. Even after several months, I still had zero interest in anything and realized I was in a “funk” I couldn’t get myself out of this time.
