I am being pulled in a few directions and I need help with my decision making.
I feel very strongly about not doing something but so many people are pressuring me into doing it. It is just stupid of me but I feel very strong about not doing it, but I may not have any control in the situation??
the 2nd thing is Im being pressured into doing something I do not want to do, and they will not drop it. Even after I verbalized how I feel about it. i am feeling like Im being taken advantage by this person and they are in a role where they should not be doing this to me.
The last thing I am being pressured into requires me to hurt someone if I dont do it, really hurt them. It seems mean but i so strongly disagree with what it is that I cant bear to do it.
Yeah this is a pretty stupid post, it is so vague and unclear that it probaly makses little sense...sigh
but if anyone understands me please helpthanks a bunch

It's hard to say since it is pretty vague but you are the one that will live with the consequences of whatever it is you chose to do.. Not other people who are pressuring to make these choices.
So just keep that in mind and remind them of that as well.
I pray you will find great wisdom and understanding so you can know what to do.

The only person you have to live with is you.
As far as hurting someone, perhaps you could explain your stance and make an alternative gesture.

I guess from your post that you can't say what they want you to do. But, I have to sleep at night, and if it would keep me from sleeping I wouldn't do it. I quit a lot of jobs as an RN when asked to go against my principles. Yes, there are plenty of jobs available for RN's but I still could not hurt another human being if I thought it was wrong. I'm so sorry you are in such a bad situation. Fondly, Phillipa

I was so stressed about this stuff and one of them is WAY too trivial to even have been mentioned but I feel strongly about it. the most important thing,I have made my decision on, I just dont know how to break the news. I cant do something I feel may be wrong morally.
I felt so stupid posting after I did, I just told somemone if I so paranoid to say things here I am better off not posting I guess. It is frustating to read criptic stuff. I hate the thought of saying to much.
But the point is thanks for responding, I am going to do the best thing according to my standards and morals. Now I just have to come up with a good let down. Thanks again
