Life changes fast. Whether it is an autism or mental health diagnosis or a chronic illness diagnosis, these changes often impact every facet of life. Discovery of an addiction, or finally finding a name for a complex medical condition, is only the beginning. Support can help. Most people have no idea how intense or far-reaching the impact of these experiences can be. As someone who deals with rare, complex health challenges, I get it. I get how hard it is to be the "sick one" or manage a child's autism or illness in a world not meant for people with complicated needs. I get how family relationships and personal identities falter.
