Teaching is an arduous and often thankless occupation. Of course, I was aware of this fact throughout my year at the school. I wasn’t proud that teaching impacted my mental health so significantly. At one point, even the school secretary suggested I see a therapist. I was ashamed I couldn’t do this basic job so many people do, year after year, with no problems.
