I was recently diagnosed with autism. This wasn't something I ever had on my radar, not until I met my new psychiatrist, who after going into my family history of mental illnesses and disorders, and after ruling out other possible disorders/ determining I had ADHD, thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to get tested.

This year many things have changed for my family. Along with the many boundaries we’ve had to fight to keep for our children and ourselves, there’s also been so much growth in other relationships because of boundaries.

If you grew up in and around the church, or you know evangelicals, while also living with a mental illness or another disability/illness, you’re probably traumatized by that experience.
