Mini-Series: Preventing Dysregulation
from Parenting while Autistic Hosted by Dr Lana Ferris, Autistic Mother
In this episode, we explore strategies to reduce dysregulation for autistic parents by managing energy drains in our daily lives. We break down potential drains into three categories and discuss effective approaches for each: 1. Unimportant and Unenjoyable Drains - Identifying these unnecessary stressors - Strategies for elimination or minimization 2. Important but Unenjoyable Drains - Recognizing necessary tasks that cause stress - Techniques to make these tasks more manageable 3. Enjoyable Activities - The importance of prioritizing activities we love - How to budget resilience and energy for enjoyable activities By addressing these different types of drains, autistic parents can work towards creating a more balanced and less dysregulating daily life.
