Can someone help me please?

OK. I have a problem and don't know what to do?? I have a few problems going on atm, namely I had a miscarriage two months a go, a week after my partner split with me after three years. I haven't told anyone this, only my doctor knows. I also have some problems at work (i work in a school and are having problems with a few boys but this is being sorted) and the only person I ever spoke to about my problems was my partner.

All of this is eating me up inside, but have very few friends where I live atm as I've just moved house. There is someone at work who helps everyone else with their problems and I want to ask for her help but don't know how to approach the subject? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

    As hard as it may seem to you, maybe a chat in the staff room over a cup of coffee during a free period may be the answer.

    Certainly I would advise that you let her know you have something that you would really appreciate the advise of a wiser ( and probably older ) colleague on.

    there is every chance that she will want to help, particularly as it gives you a chance to get to know each other better, and obviously any problems can affect your work, and have repercussions on the children.

    It's good to talk, and listen.

    Just approach the person and work and ask for a few minutes of her time.

    If she helps every one else I am sure she won't mind helping you.

    You need some body to talk to.

    Just go to lunch and after having a conversation for a few minutes it will come up, it's always great to talk about things.
