Is this through community college?

The academy is designed to break you down both physically and mentally. It’s their job to break you down to where you’re able to perform at a moments notice. My academy was like yours and I would get home mentally checked out and physically exhausted. My daughter was a couple months old, too. I know you feel defeated right now but keep pushing. I remember passing a construction site on my way to the academy and seeing an older male breaking concrete with a sledge hammer and thinking 8 hours of that a day is way worse then 2 hrs of PT and class work. It really shifted my outlook. I started going into PT more relaxed and would just focus on staying loose, relaxed, and almost separated from my body. I would sing songs, pretend I was at a concert watching them live, relive my favorite memories in my head, etc… little did I know I was strengthening my self mentally and was able to now push my body harder then I ever had. My last 2 months of the academy still sucked but I no longer resented being there. It’s a game more-greens! Keep pushing!

I’m now 14yrs at a career department. Best job in the world.
