I've been under a great deal of stress lately.
And as some of you know, I'm in a new job-temporary. I had the interview, but it went poorly. I know why it did, and it's ok. I won't get the results until tomorrow at a staff meeting. I think that sucks, and I may not attend. I don't need to be publically humiliated on top of everything else. But, I will still be in this position, until the school department can find a permanent position for me. So, I'll be there for a while.
But, here's the real issue. My classroom is an internal room. I never get to see daylight. Even if the door is open, I can only see another wall. And, I work all periods. I have no free period for prep, or to escape the room. No fresh air; no sunlight. All day. Every day.
I've always had a slight issue with Seasonal Affective Disorder. I think the classroom is contributing to the stress I'm dealing with. I know it contributes to depression, but, I've not heard if it does for stress too.
Anyone know? And do you have any suggestions?
Thanks!
Shalom!
