Self-Criticism and Self-Compassion in ADHD and Autistic Parents
If you’re an autistic or ADHD parent, you might be quite familiar with your inner self-critical voice. Maybe you also struggle with being self-compassionate when things don’t go to plan. Feeling stuck in a cycle of stress and self-blame can take a toll on our wellbeing, as well as our ability to parent. Does this sound familiar?
Before we take a dive into why this might happen, let’s take a pause to understand a bit more about self-compassion.
