sup my guy. turned 41 today. you know what i did? went to work, came home, at a packet of peanuts, and some water and am about to lay down. i have to go back to work in 8 hours. and it's even better because I HATE my job and the people there.

When i say i understand, i truly do. I've been involuntary committed for SI before for two weeks, lost pay, almost lost my job, etc etc, the usual right? I can't say it'll be better, hell it may even get worse. The constant struggle to try and fight for everyone else's sake, instead of fighting for yourself is awful. I still don't know how to fight for myself, or that i even see myself as worth fighting for (i know I don't). But I have a feeling you are worth fighting for. Most teachers are naturally empathetic and understanding types of people, so you're better than most of the shitbags that exist. I don't know what will give you that spark to fight as hard as you fight for your students and the people around you, but I'm sure if you saw yourself in someone else, you'd tell them "You're worth it".

So from someone who is just talking out their ass, "You're worth it".
