As most of you know, I’ve fought depression since I was a teen. Then hormones added PPD for each of my babies. Now, after all these years, I know my depression is closely tied to something called PMDD, which means Pre-Menstrual Dysphoric Disorder. It’s like PMS on steroids. And one of the biggest problems with…

I don’t often hear people say this about my boys, but I can tell they’re thinking it. The disapproving looks. The not-so-subtle eye rolls. The exasperation and frustration.

We lose our capacity to enjoy life, and meaningfully interact with others. Sadness gives way to apathy. Hopelessness seeps in, and can devolve into despair. How…

My husband and I sat down in the evening to watch a movie, and suddenly I felt like I couldn’t…
I tried many different ways to show these videos, and doing a playlist on YouTube ended up being the easiest way. Whatever you’re going through, I hope these songs bless you. The first song in this set means so much to me. It’s called “You Alone” and this version is by The Sisters. I first…
One day at work, I (Jerry) passed a co-worker and she asked absently, “How’s it going?” It was clear that she was in a bit of a hurry to get wherever it was she was going and wasn’t really looking for a detailed answer. She was just trying to be polite. But feeling a bit…

With kids on the Spectrum, new foods are really tricky. Of my four boys, three are super picky, and one is insanely picky. (J3, in case you’re curious!) I have had to come up with a few tricks to get them to at least try new things. I don’t expect them to love it. Just…
