Anxiety about Teaching my Literature Class

Work/School

Vacation is over and I have to go back to work tomorrow.

I think my mind associates my workplace with negativity and stress. I've been there for 5 years and it's an extremely toxic environment in terms of workload and office politics. Plus, I also have a fear of public speaking.

I haven't been in the classroom for ages and I'm terrified of going back to work tomorrow. I feel a sense of unease.

I have already planned my lesson for tomorrow. But yet this sense of unease and impending doom is gnawing at me and making me feel restless. I love teaching Literature and I love my students. I don't want to disappoint myself tomorrow by succumbing to anxiety.
