S3E22 - I Love My Family. But It's Tricky.

Family gathering shenanigans.   Reverting to a childlike mindset when with family. Unhealed inner child issues?   Different dynamics with different families and different challenges to navigate.   How do you recharge your batteries as an introvert when you are with guests or family?    Harder to "escape" for some alone time when you're with a smaller group of people.   The pressure of hosting or coordinating group activities or outings.   Stimulus control issues that become overgeneralized.   Observing maladaptive behaviors without doing anything about it in the moment.    The slow burn of mentally transitioning in and out of different environments.
