Hello, everyone. My boys (12 and 10) started back in person this year. The oldest was in person last year for the last half of the year. This is the first time the youngest has been back in person in a year and a half. They both started new schools. With work, after school activities and having to wake up at 530 every morning, I am exhausted. I already feel worn out. I talked to my friends with kids and they all feel similar. Any other parents/caregivers or even students feeling the same way?
Of course, we have forgotten a mask a couple times and had to run back home.
Seems everything is triggering fear more than usual
Just Feeling (more) Miserable
They help our anxiety more than they know
Is it more than regular depression
Only 2 days into school and I'm already more anxious and stressed
