Feeling very low

Feeling very low I graduate nursing school in a week and I feel like shit. I can’t even introduce who I am without blocking. I know I’m smart but I don’t feel smart when I talk. I know people in my nursing class make fun of me behind my back. I just feel so worthless. As much as I can try to not care it’s not easy. I know it won’t get easier. What nurse will I be if I can’t even say what my name is without blocking.
