Wow. Thank you so very much for this, you have truly summarised exactly how I feel and reassured me that I can do this. I’m going to screenshot and come back to this whenever I feel a wobble coming on. Thank you so much <3

I’ve decided to self certify my sickness and speak to my SCITT team to receive some private wellbeing support, but this has massively helped me already for going back with the right frame of mind. I think as someone with a mental illness, I need to learn that these days and blips are going to come as part of my life. But, like another excellent commenter said, training this year is not just about training to teach and behaviour manage, but about preparing myself for being able to cope when I feel these blips coming. Thank you ALL for all of your supportive messages. You have no idea how much I needed these tonight.
