1. Don’t check work email. 2. Do at least one thing that makes you laugh each weekend. 3. Use a Sunday afternoon to plan out the week. Keep task lists short each day. You’ll feel more prepared going into Monday. My Erin Condren LifePlanner makes me feel happy and empowered.
I have also been struggling with being anxious on the weekends. I try to leave work at work and take time for myself and my son on Sundays. Take a walk, go to a park, do something you enjoy
Is this about admin, parents, students?
I am the department chair at my school and I know I’m no one’s boss, all I’m trying to do is have a create cohesiveness and as much as I don’t want to take people’s responses personal, I have not been able to. And my admin isn’t always there to help.
Spending time with my family how I lower my anxiety. I struggle as a high school SPED teacher to not let certain students affect my mood outside of school. Sometimes I am successful and sometimes I am not.
Relieve stress the natural way.... 😉
Same. Found out one my students is transferring and I'm having a real hard time coping. My class is very small so her absence us going to leave quite a hole.

Find teacher friends that you can talk to in your school. Having one or two trusted people to share experiences with and/or get advice from is a game changer. My school besties are my barometer for my reactions and my trusted sources of advice. Talking with them helps reduce the isolation of this job. If I can tell someone what I’m stressing about before I go home, I don’t obsess as much by not having understanding ears at home.
