Re: Trouble !

So many various feelings is natural. Keeping fingers crossed for you.

@Kurra

Congrats @utopia Find other things that actually do feel good.

@Former-Member Full time professional work and motherhood is such a huge ask. NOT all your fault, just so much to manage. You cant even leave the job at the workplace. Hope you have some Happiness these Holidays.

@Faith-and-HopeI know you have your big girl shoes on, and give so much support to others.

Take care of you too, Bella.

Thanks @Appleblossom ..... 💐💕

And I agree with that @Former-Member ..... single parenting and full-time work that you can’t leave at the office is a really tough gig. Have to keep that inner critic in check ...... not all your fault.

Re: Trouble !

Sometimes we are more expansive, but trimming back sometimes can help.

We do have some room for choice but in my experience it is rarely a completely "free" affair. There are many aspect which determine our current position. It also takes time to come to terms with what are actual position may be ...

Re: Trouble !

thank you all, i think part of the problem with teaching in general these days is that the workload is increasing every year and theres just no way to do it in 'work hours' but its the way it is, I guess my position is that i need to work for many reasons. Its not possible to work part time and not something im able to look at doing for a while, for many reasons, only one of those reasons being financial.
it is always make or break somehow with my mi and when i wasnt working it was the same with the low lows and i thought work would help, which it does in a way as it gives me purpose, just am over the cycle of how i am and the issues that are constantly going on with other life stuff. just have to keep going for now. I have some extra responsibilities this year that i shouldnt have taken on but that is the way it goes i guess. thank you @Appleblossom and @Faith-and-Hope

Re: Trouble !

I believe you @Former-Member

You are the best one to judge your own circumstances, but try and do that with a discerning (best for you and children) approach rather than a merely judgemental one. Sometimes the concepts are used interchangeably but they can be quite different.

Re: Trouble !

It sounds like you ar doing an amazing job @Former-Member ..... and part of that is having high standards for yourself .... but the flip side is holding high standards over yourself, and thinking in a punitive self-deprecating way when you can’t reach or maintain them.

That is a core situation amongst our lot over here .... so I say very gently .... please don’t be too hard on yourself .....

💜💐💜
