My health is suffering. I am feeling stressed and exhausted. Every change and extra surprise task at school feels like it weighs 1,000 pounds. I do not have the mental or physical energy for the activities I used to love or for my loved ones. I feel like every moment I have to choose between doing my job well or being a good teacher.

This is difficult on days that I feel as though I am pouring from an empty cup.
