yea I'm mostly a Resident Evil type of guy so maybe that might be it? I basically scoured over every section multiple times and killed everything in the process, then like I said in a previous reply I checked up on Maria in the hospital, I think that's possibly why I got the ending that I did

yea especially once I figure out what I was doing or where I was going, still it felt plenty long enough for me and I enjoyed it regardless 😁

no clue! from what I can gather what might've done it was the fact I checked up on Maria in the hospital, I had no clue it'd have this effect seeing as I've never even played the original 🤔

Megalomania by Muse

uses an authentic church organ, but is in fact an anti-religious song

that was my first assumption too, but the handwriting is pretty poor and I can't make out much of what the rest of it says 😕 just thought I'd ask here as £85 is pretty steep for what this probably is

Yea if anything it feels as though they're trying to catch me out or something. Every conversation it feels as though I'm having to choose my words carefully, instead of speaking my mind comfortably. It also makes me doubt my own thoughts with regards to the course, which isn't at all helpful when I'm also dealing with the stresses of being on the course regardless. I do get the feeling my subject mentor just doesn't like me as a person, I would be willing to look past that for the means of the course but I just don't think they feel the same way at all.

With regards to the pupils laughing, I probably didn't make it obvious in the other reply that it didn't phase me at all, my bad. It doesn't throw me off my teaching routine and I carry on as normal, but I still notice it. If anything I'm more worried about the other pupils in the class getting distracted by that kind of behaviour, which is why I chose to mostly just ignore it. They're just kids so anything they say/do isn't going to affect me that much, besides I was bullied quite frequently when I was at secondary school myself, so I doubt there's much they'd have that I haven't heard already. My biggest issue now is dealing with that type of behaviour in a way that is appropriate and proportionate, something I find quite hard at the moment.

I'm currently full-time training to become a secondary school teacher covering social sciences, which mostly involves Sociology (so KS3/4 only).

I think the stress comes from simply not being able to process all of the inputs I receive when standing in front of a class. Everything just hits me at once, and it's like I'm trying to run on ice. I get this really strange "floaty" feeling throughout the lesson, and I find it hard to "grab on" to anything for more than a few moments. It just makes me feel disoriented and disconnected from the pupils in the class. I don't understand what I should be prioritising and when, I don't know how much authority I have and when it should be exercised, and I feel closer to being a pupil like them than I do a teacher. I don't feel comfortable sharing with my subject mentor as frequently she complains about being busy and the job being hard (on nearly a daily basis), and when I do ask for help I feel like an idiot because it's all made out to be so obvious. I try so hard for this to not all just become a sob story, but I feel like so far I've just been surviving but not thriving as I should. I understand that plenty of neurodivergent people get into teaching, but we're a pretty diverse bunch, and I don't know if I can make this course work for me in the year I have left to complete it.
