You do need a mental health day. Take one, you have to take care of yourself. Sometimes a day off does the trick.
I'm the kind of person who believes in speaking up for myself (I'm not a physical person). If you make it known to one person that you're not going to put up with their mess and you state it in no uncertain terms (no threats needed), they will not bother you again, and others won't bother you at all. You have enough on you with dealing with the kids on a daily basis. Don't put up with people treating you bad. Some adults are worse than kids that bully, don't give them the satisfaction. Turn it around on them, and give them a dose of their own medicine.
Yes, you have had a bad day. You stated you did not even know why and that hate crying. Something is bothering you or upset you to the point that your body and mind feel like you need to cry. Crying is a way our bodies release some of the tension and stress we care with us. So find a quite place where you can cry it out. Once your relieve that stress think about taking that mental day and look for ways to take care of yourself. Please remember what you are feeling is only human. This too shall pass. I know there have been days that I get in my car and cry or I am so mad at someone or something, that I need to take a moment and think who is this really hurting. Yourself.
I'm not sure which adults were horrible, but if it's the parents perhaps get the principal involved when you correspond with certain parents. Always having the principal cc'd on your correspondence with those parents. Face to face meetings for those need to be with the principal. Set clear parameters that we ask questions first and establish facts rather than assume/accuse/criticize. If it's your peers or administration try to define what it was that triggered you and think about what your expectations are-are they unrealistic for that/those person(s)? Only you can control your reaction and set parameters within communication. Take that day off and take time to explore healthy , professional responses to conduct and behavior of others. Good luck!
