I noticed many, many posts by teachers. Is there something about teaching that factors in to our having Fibro? If you are a teacher, why not share what grade-level you teach and your teaching area. I started teaching at the age of 50 after completing an alternative certification program at the university. I am certified to teach Visual Art and Family and Consumer Science from grades 6-12. My last job was eliminated after being there just one year. Having a hard time finding a job right now. Have to move out of secondary teaching I think. I have a MSED in Workforce Education and Development. Seems it makes me too expensive to hire when there are so many with bachelor degrees. Love teaching, but Foods and Clothing classes are too stressful for my body. I do want to work with students, but focus on helping them become successful in academics and planning their education and career paths. I have been substitute teaching for most of the last 2 years and doing some career exploration and development volunteer. I was sick for most of a year and am restarting my job search now that I am on a med that treats my Fibro and Migraines. Becky My physical goal is to hike and rappell again. |
"In the 3 months I have been with MDJunction I have developed a sense of calmness. I now friends who do not judge me because I have been a mental mess at times. It is such a good feeling to have friends I can tell my deepest thoughts and always get back to me with their support. I have never seen a therapist for long periods of time. Right or wrong, this is the best therapy possible for me. Thanks Roy for getting this up and running and making such a difference in my life. Sara" (saralaurie)
