Reading this made me cry LC. I can totally relate and also that you can recognise your parents can understand more for their grandkids. As much as Lyra and Callum are lucky to have wonderful parents and grandparents in years to come they’ll look back and see they have an incredible auntie with a beautiful heart.

Teens’ anxiety is something I dealt with a lot when I was teaching. I’m sorry yours has been life-altering, LC. Your love for Callum and Lyra is so beautiful, as is your family’s willingness to break the cycle. Do you find your anti-anxiety meds help? Propranolol helped my heart palpitations, but my journey (eugh) to understanding my anxiety has altered through the prism of our little one’s autism diagnosis. It’s been wild!
