What we’re about
Do you ever find yourself feeling lonely and isolated with your neurodivergent partner or spouse? Do you often work tirelessly making kind gestures toward them, just to realize they haven't noticed, and when you ask them about it, they seem puzzled and reply with, "I didn't realize you required a response"?
This happens to me frequently with my partner of 30 years, and just now it's settling in that all this loneliness, hurt, and frustration seems to boil down to our brains being built really rather differently. And I'm trying to sort out how we can love and support each other for the next 30 years.
On top of lots of online research and professional help, I thought it would be wonderful to connect with other women in a similar situation, be it to laugh, cry, trade stories, share wisdom and constructive support, sip coffee (or a glass of wine) or chat about any other happy or worried feelings we may have.
To be clear, there would be no one leading this group and no professional support present. - Just a group of supportive friends in an open, non-judgemental space. I have no idea what this might look like, but I thought I'd put it out there. 💕
