Episode 90. Are you Disappearing?
Welcome to the Autism Parent Club Podcast!
Are you parenting a child with profound autism or navigating life with a non-verbal teen who requires 24/7 care? You’ve found your people.
We’re Chris and Becky—parents to an 18-year-old son diagnosed with Level 3 autism, sometimes referred to as severe or profound autism. Each week, we share real-life stories from our journey parenting a child with high support needs, including sensory challenges, communication barriers, meltdowns, medical visits, and meaningful milestones.
In this episode:
Have you ever felt like you've lost yourself in the demands of autism parenting? In this episode, we explore what happens when caregiving, advocacy, therapy appointments, and the daily challenges of raising a child with autism leave little room for your own needs. We discuss the signs of caregiver burnout, why so many autism moms struggle with overwhelm and exhaustion, and simple ways to reconnect with yourself while parenting a child with autism. If you're a special needs parent feeling stressed, depleted, or disconnected from who you used to be, this episode offers encouragement, understanding, and practical support..Email us: unabridgedcoaching@gmail.com
