Description

Whiplash. You probably know what I mean. You start to be lulled into a life with fewer meltdowns, or less intensity. Then BOOM. An old behavior seems to explode out of nowhere. 

You’re right back to feeling like everything’s awful or it’ll never get better or you’ll have to live like this forever. 

You might even be frustrated with yourself that you let yourself ‘relax.’

All of these experiences are completely normal for folks who love someone with a chronic condition that occasionally flares- which is what a vulnerable nervous system is.


In this episode, you’ll learn

  • The whiplash and why we feel it
  • Why our kids seem to attack outta no where
  • Why these moments feel like everything is as worse as ever- but it probably isn’t
  • Why it’s GOOD we can finally rest, even if it does leave us feeling unprotected and whiplashed
