@lowselfesteem92 I am sorry to hear you are in a tough position as a teacher. Nowadays that is one of the hardest jobs to do.

It sounds like the tests are done by an external testing organization. That makes your job even harder.

I found in the workplace I had to have an avocation. I did creative things like music and writing and exericising to allow myself to cope. It was not easy. I think the key for me was to lessen putting my identity in the workplace and my job and to find activities that really gave me a sense of fulfilllment. That may be difficult for you because I heard teachers work long hours to do everything needed.

Non reaction is a skill I am trying to develop. Mindfulness has helped me a lot. Both the free app Healthy Minds and the free resources at Palouse Mindfulness helped me develop new perspectives.
