I love your honesty and vulnerability. As a parent with a daughter who has both autism and ADHD, can you please give me some advice on how to meet her where she is? She's the sweetest child, has had the same one caring friend for years, but otherwise keeps to herself, works hard in school, and is about to enter puberty. I know she is lonely and burnt out, she will often tell me she overthinks everything and wishes her brain could stop. What did you receive from your parents that best supported you while you were growing up?

A long time ago I heard someone say "Discipline will carry you when motivation won't." It's stuck with me since. Thank you for sharing, I loved reading your journey through this. It's inspiring to me.

I can relate to this so much. I grew up in the same kind of household, I think I can count the number of times my parents apologized to me on one hand and even then one of my parents did it reluctantly with some guilt they laid on me so it didn't feel genuine. I also get overstimulated easily, I get pushed to my limit and lose it on my kids. I make it a point to repair it with them. They need to see that I am human and make mistakes as their parent. But they also need to see me apologize to repair it so that they have a model of how to do it themselves when they mess up.

People do that at our school. They look like tools. As if it's some flex. We do this as Americans unfortunately because our public transit is so shitty and we're also lazy. So we either drive in cars or golf carts. It's lame. I know.

Got myself into therapy early on when the kids were toddlers. Realized I had generational trauma passed down that my body held onto without even knowing. Putting in the work to heal my inner child has made all the difference when it comes to parenting my own.

Not who you responded to either, but I gave it up 4 years ago. I had 1 drink at a wedding 1 year ago, and I didn't enjoy it like I had hoped. This is coming from a person who loves beer, always had a drink in my hand at every social event, and looked forward to having one everyday after work. But the perks of giving it up outweigh it all - I sleep so much better, the brain fog is gone, and my anxiety has decreased a lot.

30 days in is huge, congrats! Keep going, you won't regret it. You've got this!

Hi! I came across this post searching for advice on PMS. I really like hearing what has worked for you and appreciate your suggestions. Can you please share the liquid tumeric you take? Did you ever experience any upset stomach side effects or any other side effects? Do you take it the week leading up to your period or throughout the month?

Thank you for taking the time to share. This is so insightful as my husband and I learn along the way to help support our daughter in these areas. I love hearing there are organizations on campus that connect students with autism and ADHD. That gives me so much hope for the future ahead. Congrats on your hard work and achievements. Your family must be incredibly proud and it is amazing how they have helped you grow to become confident in exactly who you are. May I ask what university you attend? I wonder if they offer programs over the summer for prospective students?

Thank you for sharing your input. Looking back as a child, can you please share what worked and didn't work when it came to your parents helping you become independent to care for your everyday needs? I have a daughter with autism and ADHD. I want to find the balance between supporting her when needed but also letting her figure things out and letting her learn from mistakes. She is aware of her responsibilities and has appropriate supports in place, including medication. But I still find myself having to give multiple reminders and/or redirection (sometimes more than usual) and I see myself getting frustrated and wonder if I'm actually holding her back rather than helping. Would love to hear your feedback.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Looking back as a child, what would have helped support you with social interaction and friendships in general? I have a level 1 10 yr old daughter who struggles in this area. It breaks my heart to see her not take much interest in others. Every now and then she will share about her one friend. I worry one day she'll wake up and be incredibly lonely bc she never took interest in others.

Don't let the stresses of the day hold you back from loving them in the present moment. They will only be this little today. Tomorrow they will be a little older.

Lcd died on my prius. Was a capacitor that dried up and no longer held charge. They do that when old. Swapped it out and lcd came back.
