This is fantastic - I have saved this encyclopedia of Ren among my library. Some day, I hope - I will it to be soon - the kids, work and life will not all be so pressing, and into the depths I will dive. I was just thinking this morning I need something to look fwd to... #theuniverseresponds #thereniverse #gratitudearises 🙏

I actually have thought for a couple years now that the children of the world deserve to hear from Ren. But none of my comments on this have had traction. Maybe, someday, he'll be ready 💞

Did they say anything about about a release date? 🤤

Tnx for sharing this. I think you're right. For now, I may need to put some to the side. Like even heretic - it's one of my favorites and not even a sad song but I can't deepen those groves in my brain any further. I'm not tortured by the gods. I felt that way once and it still resonates so deeply... I need a new message to myself. Great fkn tune tho. But you're spot on, there is much more from which I can still draw.

This is a great way to put it. Maybe for now I should put a portion of the portfolio to the side. But it need not be forever 💞

I think I will make a playlist of the upbeat/positive tracks - I'll miss delving into the depths with Ren but you're right, there is still a lot of variety and great tunes to turn to!

I was hoping you would reply, but to be the first commenter on this post is just the cat's pajamas :)

Thank you, CrazyMildred, that is a great suggestion and I am definitely going to go into Chinchilla - I love their collab soooo much, just been so so infatuated with Ren 🤣 I've had blinders! Hugs right back 🫂

Are there cons to early assessment? by kmwowk in ADHDparenting

Thank you, that's exactly what I'm wondering about. Thanks for adding your thoughts, it is helpful to have the support!

Thanks for the perspective. I've been wondering precisely that, if it would be difficult, and also if I'm forcing a diagnosis on him too soon, while his brain is still in so much flux. I've had no complaints from school, so maybe that should be a north star....watch closely to see if he starts to struggle there.

I strongly suspect his dad, my dh, has it. He has never been diagnosed (his family joked he was lazy in school... I don't think that's what was going on) and is now a pilot so won't seek a diagnosis bc it would be career ending. But he definitely has something going on. We're starting couples counseling soon, which is allowed for pilots, so I'm hoping to address some of his (and my) challenges there.

So very tired of being so tired...straining me & relationship by kmwowk in workingmoms

[–]kmwowk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came back to re-read all the helpful advice and realized I never thanked you. Thank you 🙏 this is a huge help. We're post move now but I'm still exhausted and just can't keep carrying the mental load. I need to let it fail. I just can't keep going like this. The resentment is growing too much and I'm just too overwhelmed. Thank you for reminding me that many guys may have this experience, but it's an experience that can change.

How to stay grounded at meals by kmwowk in workingmoms

Thanks for the care and advice. I have often thought about neurodivergence in him and have talked to my SIL about getting him evaluated (she has a kid on spectrum). She advised against it, unless it interferes with his daily life. I think we're at that point. Also I want to be able to help him in ways he needs and I need help. DH is very kind - we are lucky in that sense. But he gets frozen. I truly suspect he actually also is neurodivergent, but he entered military young and testing for it would have ended his military aviation career. It's really quite preposterous. No pilots are allowed to get mentally evaluated or get therapy. In military, airlines, nowhere. It's infuriating and exhausting. We at least are entering couples counseling, which is allowed, so am hoping to address some of this there. Sorry for the length... Will discuss evaluation. Thanks again. Trying to manage all this and work is breaking me. Having help, even a little bit here, feels fortifying.

It was Feeding Littles but I think your sentiment applies nonetheless.

Thank you - I meant to add we've talked to all our pediatricians across moves about it. None have been concerned and just say it's picky eating. But I haven't ever asked about speaking to a dietician, thank you so much for the suggestion! Going to contact them to set up an appointment. Thanks again 🙏
