No motivation has kept me away

No motivation...keeps me from writing and even thinking of writing, updating blogs, etc. At first I feel as if I can obtain the world...write a book, finish my articles, write for the autism society...but then I crash and I can't manage to do anything but the minimum self care and mothering. The kids are more difficult now then ever. New revelations about myself and my daughter. Not only do I have AS, I also am bipolar I. Trying to seperate each disorder's symptoms is confusing and frustrating...there are so many overlaps. So many well meaning doctors telling me that they suspect Bipolar and a personality disorder because I don't fit the "typical characteristics of AS". This speaks to the fact of what us AS adults must contend with; both for us and our children.

Don't give in...

Especially....

Don't give up.

Although, I am on the outside looking in (in reference to motherhood), I see my wife doing many great things with our son (2E Child).

She maintains her sense of self by doing something everyday that makes her happy...and gives her energy.

Do the same...you cannot give to others if you have nothing left inside.
