With the worldwide coronavirus pandemic far from over, thankfully, if there has been one good thing that has come out of the enforced lockdowns and other social and communicative restrictions, it is the rise and increase in popularity of self-care techniques. In the modern world, everyone’s daily schedule is always packed full of duties, roles, and responsibilities which are often more for other people, and often there seems little time in the day to take care of yourself.

How do you know if your depression is adequately managed?

I've been paying a great deal more attention to my depression lately because I can feel it creeping in as the holiday approaches. Admittedly, I've not been working out as I should be, and part of that is probably depression-related as well. At the same time, I could be forcing myself to go, but I'm not. I feel run down and lack the energy necessary to expend during a workout. I'm also fully aware that I would feel so much better if I pushed through it and hit the gym, even if it wasn't for the full 90 minutes. The truth is, sometimes I get in my own way. Anyway, I've been looking at different ways to control my depression better, and I thought I would share some of the…

Tips For Fostering An Autistic Child

Being a foster parent is always going to be challenging. The children you look after will come from a variety of backgrounds and they will have been through different things to have put them in the foster care system. Understanding this and being kind, caring, and compassionate is crucial. However, what would happen if the child you needed to take care of was autistic? How would that change things? Of course, you would still want to care for them in the same way, but this might not be possible; children with autism may need a different kind of care, depending on their individual needs.

An emotionally exhausting level of personal growth this week

It's been a long, emotional couple of days for me and I'm exhausted but feeling better. Sometimes personal growth can be a bit more challenging and it forces me outside of my comfort zone. While it can be unpleasant in the surrounding moments and take some adjustment on my part, it's ultimately a good thing. This is especially true when learning to navigate new things for the first time. I'm a big fan of personal growth and sometimes it can be uncomfortable but it makes me a better person in the end. I know the people in my life deserve the best I have to offer. I woke up today feeling really good and highly motivated to keep pushing forward with what I know I can do. I have people…

You’re not a bad parent and here’s why

Parenting is hard. There are no two ways about it. Parenting kids with unique challenges like autism, ADHD, anxiety, mental illness, or other physical/emotional disability can be even more complicated. I've been a parent for over two decades now, and I'm still learning. My parenting experience is mainly special needs in nature but believe it or not; there is some overlap with more typical parenting. Also, we should acknowledge that some people are terrible parents. That's just the way it is. That being said, the overwhelming majority of parents out there are so much more amazing then they give themselves credit for. As parents, we have the best of intentions, and while none of us are perfect, we strive to give our kids the best lives we possibly can. Sometimes,…

Oh, that’s definitely broken

I'm not gonna lie, it was a great weekend. Sunday was spent hiking, hanging out, playing games, and eating delicious food. It ended with a fire in the fire pit and watching our kids get to be kids. It's been such a long time since my kids could just be kids and getting to experience that was pretty amazing. ☺ Gavin is spending less and less time doing things with the rest of us but he's becoming more and more independent. He's happy and that makes me happy. I truly believe that he will be on his own (in a supervised setting) at some point in 2022. He's so focused on that and I will support him in every way I can. I realized that I forgot to mention that…

Perspective: Why I’m so grateful to be stressed out about work and money

I've not been writing as much as I'd like to lately because it's a bit overwhelming for me right now. That's the only way I can think to describe it. At the same time, this doesn't mean I'm drowning or overwhelmed with life in general, though. I actually feel incredibly fortunate because I have a good life and I get to spend it with the people I love. My stress tends to be work and money related. I suppose those are pretty common things to be stressed out about. Honestly, I feel fortunate here as well because I'm stressed out by something not related to autism, health problems, or behavioral issues. For a large part of my adult life, I was consumed with managing all those things and I felt…
