Big emotions and big responses seems to be a common situation in neurodiverse families. These intense emotional reactions can become challenging when small problems trigger disproportionately big responses. These two tips have helped our whole family process these moments better.

Changes in routines can be tough on our neurodiverse kids, and honestly, they can be tough on us as moms. I know how hard it is to squeeze in time for self-care during these transitions, but I’ve found using the tips can make heading back to school a little less stressful—both for our children and for ourselves.

Remember meltdowns often communicate feelings of sensory overload or overwhelm. When we find ways to reduce that sensory load, it can sometimes help ease the frequency or intensity of meltdowns.

Resources Mentioned:

• Ark Chewies

• Munchables

• Loop Ear Plugs

• Weighted blankets: I always recommend doing some research to choose the right weight for your child—consider whether it’ll be used for sleep or just as a lap blanket. Also, it’s a good idea to check with your child’s doctor if they have any health conditions (like asthma) that might make weighted blankets unsafe.

I hope these tips and resources make the transition back to school a little smoother for you and your family.

You know you're spreading yourself thin, burning the candle at both ends trying to meet all the demands. You can feel the personal cost: lack of sleep, health issues, and an inability to rest. What if your overfunctioning is also negatively impacting your family? This may be the message you need to allow yourself to slow down and make the changes you've been secretly contemplating.

For years, I was frustrated, always being a reactive wife and mom, responding to seemingly unending problems instead of planning and living proactively. This led to feeling overwhelmed as I tried to understand Autism and ADHD characteristics impacting my family. If you feel the same way, join me in this last Planning Series chat. I share how I use my planning system to make a small proactive step each week, and I hope this episode inspires you in your important roles.
