I don’t often ask for prayer, not because I don’t think I need it, but because I’m a pretty private person.

I could really use some prayer for me as I navigate burnout over the next few weeks, before I am able to take a break.

Then I start the fall semester, where my covid concerns are at front of my mind and heart but not in alignment all all with my workplace.

I'm tired of fighting. I have to keep fighting. I need support from anywhere I can get it.

Thank you so much.

I had a telehealth appointment that led to an ER visit that led to them finding nothing wrong, more tests pending. Stress is ...killing me?

Last place on earth I would ever go is the ER unless I actually thought I was dying. Still alive, no closer to figuring out what's wrong. Bad Day.

I am trying very hard to put my health first. I have no understanding of how to rest.

I thought I knew how, but turns out being anxious while seated - that's not it.

What are your go-to things you do to rest?

My new mantra: someone else can do it.
