@therelateableschoolpsych: I’m sure you remember navigating something recently and wishing life would just slow down to “handle it” Maybe you were grieving someone Maybe you were navigating a complication friendship drama Maybe you were going through health issues that were scary These things never line up with a day off or break, they usually pop up when we least expect it or our day feels full of meetings or deadlines. But sometimes that extra pressure pushes you over the edge of “okay” to “man, I’m really struggling” This is where taking your time matters before you really need it. Sometimes that also looks like a day to celebrate a once in a lifetime moment or be there for someone special in your life, outside of work. So use your time. Time to recover mentally or physically or embrace the moments in life that don’t fit in a “holiday schedule” share in the comments something you hope to do more of this year to take care of you, so you can take better care of our students who don’t always have the voice for when they need a break too. 💕 . . . #schoolpsych #schoolpsychologist #schoolcounselor #schoolpsychology #educator special ed advocate mental health Merrill
