It seems to me that could be a good idea and somehow cathartic to express here how you are feeling.
Perhaps, others users replies can be helpfull or you can share the same feelings with them. Just today, I'm feeling very tired at work. I'm a teacher and we are putting into practise a new method to cope with bad behaviour. It's quite extressing. But you know, that used to happen always at the beginning when something is new or unknown. |

I'm a teacher too Azul! We have conferences today. Bit worried about it because I'm exhausted. And just remember last years... I had to go home at 10:30am last year because I kept throwing up (would have called in sick if it had been a normal school day).
Also dreading next week. I'm in a play and next week is rehearsal week and then the performance. I'll be up way too late every night and I am going to be exhausted! And I am still feeling frustrated with my apartment. In a post-break-up funk and everything reminds me of my ex, so I've been avoiding reality and playing on the xbox instead of doing chores. So yeah. Nothing good going on right now! you? __________________ "The time has come, the Walrus said, to talk of many things. Of shoes, of ships, of sealing wax, of cabbages, of kings!

I think I never daré to prepare a play with the children to be performing in front of their parents. Too much responsability for an avoidant. Perhaps, some day...I don't. Were you recently passing through a break-up? I'm sorry. It's very hard. It's much harder for an avoidant. We have so few possibilities to share life with someone else. Rant in my thread as much as you like. I'm happy to find you.

Oh... with plays... I run a drama club.
Weird, but I'm good at that with them. I actually have two different groups of like 20 kids each. It's insane. But I'm also attempting to perform in the local theatre group. Last year I helped backstage, but this year I'm one stage for two brief periods. I'm absolutely horrified and wish I hadn't in a lot of ways! But it was a challenge that I decided to give myself, because there isn't too much in this place for me to do (smallish and very isolated community) that would be a challenge. I'm really a bit bizarre in what I will and won't do. Like... I can run a talent show and be the MC no problem without even having a script. But have me be the centre of attention for people to sing happy birthday to me? NO DICE. I find theatre and stage stuff... it's different, because it's not ME on display. I'm just there doing X Y or Z. But I'm not the topic. What grade do you teach? I've got grade 4. __________________ "The time has come, the Walrus said, to talk of many things.

It's fine you follow a challenge. I was thinking about récording a song with my children. My partner has a friend with a small recording studio. Who knows, perhaps.
I have students on nearly each age. I teach them English and Spanish Reading. So, I've got learners from 3 to 12 years old. I'd like to teach the older learners a beautiful song in English and récord it to put it on the school web site. Have you ever heart about the Golden 5 method or methodology? This is the one we are learning to apply in our school. Just now, I'm feeling quite satisfied. A hard week is over and I recived hugs and "I love you" from my children.  I'm not the best teacher in the world, it's only that I have lots of patience with my little sweets. And they show their gratitude. |

I think I've heard of it, but can't remember (and don't have time to google right now, hah).
I find it important to give myself goals and challenges. I've been doing that since I was 16 (am 30 now) and it's why I'm functional and don't come across as shy and insecure. (Really, a lot of the time I act like an extravert... learned behaviours ftw right!). So my issues are just in my head - find I stand out less and feel less pressured if I do what's expected and feel like I would stand out WAYYYY more whenever I'm more withdrawn... so.. play up pretend confidence it is. Which leads me to my first acting performance. :S Sooooo nervous about it. __________________ "The time has come, the Walrus said, to talk of many things.

Sorry to hear that you had a boring weekend. Maybe there was just one good thing that happened?

No, sorry because I can tell you. It's very personal. There's only a thing of two. You can't know it unless you are the other person.
Going back to the topic: how are you feeling now? Just now, I'm quiet. I have just arrived home from work and today I haven't to be bòthered by any coworker. Yesterday, it was different. Obviously, as an a good avoidant, I'm rumiating around why the hell a coworker yelled at me yesterday.

Maybe you would be better off thinking about the good people who care about you than those who mean nothing to you.
Fall back on loved ones because they will spend a life time of love, kindness and support with you rather than a nobody who is only taking up 5 minutes. __________________ Diagnosed: AvPD.

You're right, honey.
People who is rude may have a problem. I shouldn't feel responsible. I shouldn't let it affects me. It's only that I feel upset. I don't understand why people are so rude. I'm worried mainly for my kids. They have to cope with such a ***** everyday.

Hola, mi amor!
I can't. I don't want to mess up. She is knowing these children since they were 3 years old. I guess they are used to her way. The principles thinks that each teacher has their way to treat the kids. But, i never liked her way. |

Being rude to you is not acceptable and the work place should be a safe environment for both the students and teachers alike.
Talk calmly to the principle about how she treats you...not about her students, how she treats you! Then let him do his/her job as bulling isn't accepted. __________________ Diagnosed: AvPD.
