Deep dives
Childhood Trauma and Its Impact
The discussion centers around how the speaker's childhood experiences shaped their understanding of self and parenting. Growing up in an environment where mental health issues were ignored, they were often mischaracterized by family members, leading to feelings of abandonment and misunderstanding. This lack of recognition has led to painful memories now resurfacing as they parent their own children, especially seeing parallels between themselves and their son, who has been diagnosed with autism. The emotional scars from their upbringing result in ongoing struggles with self-acceptance and the ability to parent without being triggered by their own past.
