In this episode, I open up about how I\\u2019m managing my depression while I\\u2019m on total lockdown with my 3 Autistic kids. Those of us who live with mental health issues may find ourselves struggling more because of all that\\u2019s going on around us. I hope that my experience can help someone else.
Please remember that self-care is more important than ever. It\\u2019s not easy but we have to do our best to look after ourselves, especially during these turbulent and uncertain times.
Please listen and share it with anyone that could benefit.
