I realized yesterday that I have not had a conversation with another adult that was not about my son's disabilities in three months and I miss being a person instead of just an advocate.
More people experience this than they realize.
The total absorption into the role of advocate and caregiver erases other aspects of self, leaving the person lost inside the parent.
“Where Are You with Parenting a child with disability or neurodivergence?”
Peri can explain why this happens, help you decide if this is the right situation for you, and point toward the right journey or coach.
If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
