After listening through the Barkley review with a mix of triumph and dismay at my knowledge base, it is time to dig into the source material. My test date is looming and it is time to see if I know what I think I know. Sources are primarily the ANCC review book and a couple of the well-used texts from school, which I hope will result in a super-pass. Here is my life for the next few days:
Saturday: PMHNP role, scope, regulations, and theory
Sunday: Neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, behavior, and assessment of disease
Monday: Pharmacological principles and non-pharmacological treatment
Tuesday: Mood and anxiety disorders (apropos as I am getting a massage)
Wednesday: Psychotic and cognitive disorders
Thursday: Substance and personality disorders
Friday: Child/adolescent disorders and managing the dreaded yet interesting "other"
Weekend: Practice tests and reviewing the "know this cold" sections from Barkley review.
July 30th is the big day. Wish me success!
