Struggling to Find a Job That Fits My Health Needs

I’m having trouble with finding a job that my health can handle. I’ve been a teacher for a long time but my body is not keeping up. I was a psychiatric technician before that but both my mental AND physical health couldn’t keep up. My dream is to do something in psychology, but I’m open to other suggestions. Any ideas on jobs my body and mind can handle?

I liked being a patient transporter, you only deal with people for 20 minutes at a time, take them from their room to ultrasound or xray. It's a really chill type of job. I could've worked it forever had my coworker not dropped dead at work a couple years back. (He had other health conditions but I already had ptsd prior to that so I didn't handle it well)

i’m a teacher too and while i love my job, it can be very overwhelming at times. i have really bad anxiety so i feel like i do a good job at work usually, but i feel like i would have a MUCH easier time if i didn’t suffer from the anxiety. sometimes i think about looking into another career that would be easier
