taking a personal day and might be put on the schedule to work my summer job.

i took a personal day because i couldn’t work 2 shifts (7am-8:30pm) and i took off my school job since its a half day before memorial day weekend. my summer job doesn’t post the schedule until wednesdays, my summer job starts at 2 and my school ends at 12. I shouldnt get in trouble right?

why would a student seek validation from a teacher?

i wrote this on another subreddit but i will put it here because i think i know the cause but at the same time i like different perspectives.

“I got word from someone thar an ex friend (she soft blocked me on socials, she is younger than me but i helped her out in college) got her dream career and our old teacher was applauding her (honestly I'm happy for her). One thing I noticed, since my sophomore year was I had a massive validation problem with the same teacher, he knew my dad and knew how much I wanted to be there so the expectations for me were just higher I guess? I have the exact day when it started to develop mental breakdowns of going to class and thinking I will never be good enough.” and why at 23, that I am seeking that validation from him specifically. I struggle with my self esteem and positivity because of health issues made my body feel so behind of my peers, and most likely I have OCD or some type of a high functioning anxiety disorder which would make sense, but i don't know anymore.
