My mental health has been in free fall for over a year. I could go on an on listing the things I have done to help with it, medication and therapy included. It is just so frustrating when you finally get to a good mental place and one bad thing happens and then you want to kill yourself again. As many of us do, I have so many good reasons to live. However, the bad things going on in my life just push out the good things from my mind when they happen. The financial stresses and trauma of being a teacher are catching up to me and not being able to find another job outside of teaching soon might just be the death of me.
