Compassionate Guide to Autism Parenting

Discover tools and practices to prevent overwhelm and burnout, and develop compassion for yourself on the autism parenting journey.

We are in for a ride.
When our child is diagnosed with autism, our world crumbles.

And we're hit with all kinds of emotions.

Grief, fear, anger, guilt, sadness, helplessness, hopelessness...the list goes on. 

After we picked ourselves up off the ground and dusted ourselves off, we put on a game face to find the help our child needs. 

Our child needs us so we put whatever jumbled up emotions we have aside and get to work. 

We find doctors and therapies and get as much information as we can. 

We are absolutely dedicated to helping our child and helping them thrive. 

We are more than willing to sacrifice our time and energy to help our child.
And in the process, we kind of forget ourselves...
I mean, because we need to, right?

Autism parenting IS demanding, and we have to suck it up and tough it out even when we are sleep-deprived, feeling frazzled, lost, and overwhelmed, right?

Well, I used to think so when I started out on my autism parenting journey.

In fact, I went on like that for many years after the diagnosis of my child Joseph. 

I put myself on the back burner. 

I didn't really see any other way than putting my son and everyone else first. 

But the TRUTH is this....
The BIGGEST mistake we can make on this journey is NOT taking care of ourselves.

And that goes for:

  • Mentally
  • Physically
  • Emotionally
We can keep going for a while even though we are stressed and exhausted.

But eventually, the tank gets empty (mine did).

And here is what happens:

1. We end up missing out on actually ENJOYING parenting and being FULLY PRESENT with our child...because we are so freaking stressed and exhausted.

2. When we are running on low energy and in stress, our mind tends to focus on all the negative things we don't want. 

3. That means, more often than not, we are focusing on the worst-case scenarios and what's not going right in our life. 

What I listed above is what happened to me in my early years of autism parenting.

I don't want that to be you...because in that space, joy and peace get sucked out of our life. 
And that is NOT the optimal place to be parenting from. Our child does not get the best of us. 
You want to parent from joy and peace.
And that's hard if we are constantly feeling overwhelmed and stressed out.
What if I told you that we can take care of our child AND take care of our mental, emotional, physical needs?

In fact, we must. 
If we want to prevent burnout (which is NOT going to be good for parenting) and be our very best self to our child, we have to put on our oxygen mask.
When we take care of ourself, that is when we can truly be present with our child, enjoy our daily moments with them, and help them thrive.
But how? We might ask.
"We are already overwhelmed with a million things to do. We can't possibly devise a plan for self-care."
This is why I wrote this book.
