I'm so glad this group exists! Parenting is tough enough, but when you add in extra challenges it can feel isolating and overwhelming.
What are some of your biggest challenges? And how do you celebrate the victories, big and small?
For me, one of my most difficult struggles is accepting help when it's offered. I feel like it makes me a better parent to do it all myself, but logically I know that's not true! So I'm working on letting others lend a hand - it's so hard, but freeing when I can manage it.
A recent victory was finally finding a great occupational therapist who has helped my kiddo learn some valuable sensory processing coping mechanisms. It's made a world of difference in our daily routine and quality of life!
