Thanks Eva!
This a reminds me of two sayings I always try to remember…
“Stick with the winners” and “This too shall pass”

Hello amazing Eva!! Thank you so much for starting this blog. 2022 was a rough year for me and I ended up making BIG changes to my life because of what I went through. I have been teaching middle school for 21 years, of which 20 were at the same school, same classroom. I had been begging for a change in scenery for years, but to no avail. I had a major anxiety attack at school in February 2022. My therapist and I agreed that I need to take time off from teaching to focus on my mental health. I ended up taking 8 weeks off. During the 8 weeks off, I admitted myself to inpatient care to get back on my feet. It helped tremendously! But that best thing that I did for myself was to apply for a new teaching job in a neighboring school district. I am on month 8 at my new school and I am in a much better place mentally. I had to make that change for me. My old school was too negative and was draining me. I am glad that I made that change. Days are looking better and better!
