Neurodiverse Grief: Humor, Support, & Healing
Manage episode 466074134 series 2826302
How do neurodiverse individuals manage the intricate journey of grief? Carolyn Jenkins returns to shed light on this profound question, drawing from her rich expertise in special education and personal experience as a widowed mom. She shares touching anecdotes and practical advice on how neurodiverse people uniquely adapt to everyday challenges while carrying the weight of loss. Carolyn introduces us to her new virtual group aimed at supporting neurodiverse widows, emphasizing the vital role of humor and support systems in navigating these emotional waters.
Navigating conversations about death with neurodiverse children presents its own set of challenges. Together, we explore effective strategies to broach this sensitive topic, ensuring children are prepared for experiences of loss. Carolyn and I also discuss the importance of respecting individual choices in remembering loved ones and the pressures that sometimes accompany those choices.
