Just wondering how you all deal with this, apart from medication.
I am a private language tutor and since Covid hit, I have only been teaching via the internet. I have managed to set up some group lessons via Zoom, but I'm finding it involves a lot of stress. I worry about the lessons being good enough. I also to liaise with parents etc and stay very focused to answer everything. There have also been issues with sound quality which just adds to the stress. I've tried to improve my broadband plus audio stuff, but it's still hard to tell and I don't have spare money for buying new stuff.
I like working on my own from home, and prefer not having students in my home, but I feel constantly on edge now. I'm also drinking too much in the evenings, in an effort to forget feeling bad about things. For instance a parent wanted to sign her child up for classes and I missed her post in spam for a few days. Easy mistake, but I always beat myself up.
