Who am I?
No one special. Just your average thirty-something, Mum-of-three.
At least that’s what everyone sees…
In actuality, there is nothing average about me. I am autistic/ADHD. I have three autistic children. I have twins. I am diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I am a step-mum to 4 neurodivergent children. I am studying for a PhD. And now, I own a website.
Why am I doing this?
To be quite honest, while I’ve found many parenting blogs and social media groups for parents of autism, I have struggled to find many written for parents with autism. And if I can help even a handful of people out there struggling, then I have been successful!
What can you expect?
A brutally honest review of my hectic life.
One of my traits is unconditional honesty. And honestly, this has gotten me in trouble many times. However, I hope that this blog will be a more positive outlet for that honesty. I have noticed that many neurodivergents are hiding a side of themselves: a side that may be considered embarrassing, or weird, by neurotypicals. But I put it to you that there should be no embarrassment. While I’m still working on unmasking myself, I hope that sharing my experiences can help others out there struggling to accept themselves in a neurotypical world.
