just some something would be good. I am unravelling quicker than I can deal with. Ive got crazy thoughts I am not coping. Not ill enough to be not working not well enough to be working just brinking on the edge. The holidays start at the end of June and that just feels a life tiem away. I want and or need something. I cant cope I just cant cope anymore
can someone save me please

feel better xxxooo
just keep going, and something good WILL happen i promise
maybe 5 mins from now, 5 hours, or even a couple days but eventually there will be something that will make you smile that is worth waiting for
I wish I could save you. I know how hard it is to be on the edge and not quite ill enough to need sick leave, but ill enough to find the days hard going. Teaching is one of those jobs where taking time off isn't the easier option it is in some other jobs. I know, I've been there.
Make the best use of all the coping strategies you have to get through each moment, eac hour, each day. What helps you relax, safely? A good chick lit novel? A movie? Cuddling soft toys? Wrapping yourself up in a blanket? Listening to some soothing music?
Its all work related - I was offered a maternity at the school I am currently at but shes taken it back no real reason no real anything. I have gone to the union but Im scared on two levels the first that they cant do anything and the finical loss that will bring. The second that they can do something and I will have to stay in this place
Im just not coping I nearly walked out today
:(
Let me get this. You were offered a job, and your Head went back on themselves and offered it to someone else? That is not on. I hope the Union can help.
But I understand how equally frightening it must feel to think of staying in the same place where you have been... rejected.
Do the Union know of your health issues? Could they support you in getting a post elsewhere?
hey nat - long time no... see?
anyway, take care m'dear. talk to your union - health issues or otherwise, they'll be able to help you out. what happened was out of order.
take care and good luck. x
Any event, once it has occurred, can be made to appear inevitable by a competent historian.
Can you talk to the union and see where you stand? If you signed a contract they would be in breech of this. If you hadn't signed a contract they may not be able to do anything, but it's worth looking in to. The union wouldnt have to know about your health issues as the two things aren't related. Did the Head not have a good reason for changing her mind? That could go in your favour even if you didnt sign a contract.
*cuddles* that's a pile of pooh nat. maybe it's a good thing...look for another job (you could go around breaking teacher's legs...!) you don't want to be under that headteacher. *cuddles again* 21 days to go until the end of june. and 6 of those are sat/sunday so i make it 15 days of work. that's not so bad sweetie, you can do it. mand x

I scream for the sunlight, or a car to take me anywhere, just get me past this Dead and Eternal snow.
And if the perfect spring is waiting somewhere, just take me there, and lie to me and tell me it’s gonna be Alright.
