This is a 'how long is a piece of string' type of question (particularly because the way that 'nervousness' is displayed isn't explained in your question). So you're not going to get a precise answer based upon the limited information you've provided here.

However 'nervousness' is often synonymous with 'a lack of self confidence' (and/or 'self esteem'). A course of cognitive behavioural therapy ('CBT'), perhaps lasting somewhere between three months and two years, can help some sufferers.

That really depends on why you are nervous and your own personal make-up. if it is really bothering you why not seek help from a hypnotherapist.

At the end of the day its practice practice practice, only when you are totally confident so you can do the procedure in your sleep will your nervousness pass.

Ah - your post makes sense now - I didn't know if you meant nervousness as in anxiety, or nervousness as in lack of confidence. It ill come with time, and it's different in each of us. Are you newly qualified? presumably you have a registered nurse mentor or supervisio - you need to tell them now you feel, perhaps you need a bit more on-job supervision to help increase your confidence. This will help your patients feel more at ease, too.

[Girlmissyou]

to buenchico i read that cbt is for persons with anxiety depression psychosis and the like there are no nervousness mentioned there so i guess its not the cure for nervousness.what so you think?

[lcg]

don't you mean anxiety? if so, there are many different types, so you do need to be specific. general anxiety disorder (gad) is most common. go and wikipedia it and start from there. then come back with a proper question.

[Girlmissyou]

your right lcg i just want to be specific to make sure but your right i just think of nervousness as in lack of confidence but its just the same as anxiety maybe cbt is also one of the natural remedy to treat nervousness.right?

how about passion flower i heard it treats nervousness.how long do you think it will treat nervousness?

[Buenchico]

'Nervousness' simply isn't a medical condition in its own right. It's a symptom of something else, with anxiety being top of the list of the conditions that lead to it. In turn, anxiety is likely to arise through a lack of self-esteem. So it's the underlying causes of the nervousness, rather than the nervousness itself, which needs to be treated. I still think that CBT might be the best route to follow.

Herbal remedies (such as Valerian tablets or products which contain Valerian, like Kalms) can provide relief but other measures are needed to deal with the underlying causes.

Without being judgemental and only going by the tone of your replies, I think learning some relaxation techniques may help you.


It is normal early in a job to be apprehensive doing certain tasks, take a deep breath, remember what you have been taught and proceed.

It may take a little time but with patience you will gain confidence.
