I’m quoting myself today. Elizabeth Bennet is learning this in my latest story and I just shared this wisdom with my readers. It’s taken me 33 years to learn. As a mother, I see it’s one of the most crucial things I can teach my children. It’s especially important as they have special needs. They need to know to ask for help when they need it. But they won’t if they don’t feel safe. They won’t if they think they won’t be loved or will be under appreciated for doing so. All the time, I realize that I have all the same emotions as my autistic kids. I just hide it better. But is that always for the best? No, it’s certainly not. I spent years of my life covering up trauma and abuse. I spent years not talking about it—not even letting myself think about it. I mentally beat myself up my whole life. Now, I’m learning how to mentally take care of myself for the first time. Now, I’m reprogramming my mind. Now, I’m unshackling my chains. And the most essential truth I have learned is that I need no one’s permission. No one gets to tell me it wasn’t bad enough or I just need to suck it up. #mentalwellness #wisdom #specialneeds #autism
