Episode 93: Exposing the Voice of Shame and (how to get out)

I never imagined I could experience such profound emotional pain as I did when shame hit me like a ton of bricks with our daughters PANDAS diagnosis. 
 
The loss of community.
The loss of finances and extreme medical debt.
The list of unmet needs were all screaming at me that we didn't deserve better, that there was something wrong with US that we were in this situation.
 
Whether you are a special needs parent or not, life's difficulties have a way of giving us the impression that we don't deserve better. 
 
Shame can have devastating mental health impacts as well, which I talk about in this episode.

There is a difference between physiologic stress and emotional stress- in this episode, I'll help you to understand the difference and what you can do to feel better.
