What do I do? Please 🙏 any guidance and support would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Hi 👋 my name is Donna, and I have an AS in ECE and realized teaching isn’t for me and a BS in GS. After some guidance and reflection from others and myself, I decided to look into becoming a nurse (I believe that’s what God keeps pulling me towards!) I was accepted into a nursing program, but, unfortunately lost my parents almost 2 years apart and it took a very bad toll on me. Moving forward, I found a school that would except me, but, have to study and pass the TEAS exam (I have so much anxiety, doubts, fear, and overwhelming negative thoughts that I won’t be able to comprehend, understand, and pass!) I’ve feeling so depressed because I’m starting to do like before and feeling like I don’t have what it takes to become a Nurse, thinking my I should go for RT, Radiology Tech, or Sonography…….but I keep seeing nursing and saying is it a coincidence and it’s my imagination wanting me to believe it or that’s the Lord who is still talking to me and tugging at me!? I did my research on those other career paths that are awesome to, but, don’t have the opportunities the way nursing does! With that being said, I was also told no matter what your career path in whatever field you choose, there are always stress and anxiety at times, but, it’s not an option every day if you allow it! When your passionate about something, you put your whole heart into it. I‘’be always been told I’m very caring, kind, and always want to help others and put a smile on their face! I’m so confused 😵‍💫 and crying 😭 not knowing what to do anymore!? I’m 51 years old, no children, and I know it’s never to late to learn and become something as long as you believe in yourself; I seem to lack that too. Please 🙏 any guidance and support would be greatly appreciated, grateful and thankful.
