I have Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and I am really struggling with it this year. I know it qualifies as an ADA, but I am wondering what accommodations the school could provide? Has anyone had experience with this.

I get you 100. I’ve had to take 3 leaves in 26 years. You are not alone. At times the stress and anxiety can be overwhelming. I know of a case where a teacher only worked 3 days a week per doctors orders.

I experience anxiety and slight depression and have also been diagnosed, yet I fail to see anything my district might do other than hold it against me. Sad face here.

I know of no accommodations. I suffer as well. These past two weeks my class behavior has escalated to unbearable levels. Despite medication, I had to ask for someone to cover my class for a few minutes, and had to take a mental health day immediately following. If I am consistently fighting myself to keep from screaming at the kids, I know I am I'm trouble. I have taken two stress leaves in 18 years of teaching. I pride myself that it has only been two. Generally, I do not struggle with classroom management.

Hi!! I’m an HR Coordinator currently (about two years of experience) but my job has so many responsibilities and tasks I’m beyond burnt out. It’s truly impossible to focus on one task because things are constantly being thrown my way. I’ve heard whisperings of a promotion or raise, but my workload is already too much, I don’t know if I’d want to accept more responsibility. Is it normal to feel like you have just as many responsibilities as your superiors who make 30k+ more than you?
