061 | Depression and Feeling Hopeless - with Jody Warshawsky

When my daughter Remy was diagnosed with autism, I had ALL the feels. I struggled and I felt alone. I didn’t know how I was going to be the kind of mother that Remy needed, and I didn't understand why she had special needs. How could God do this to a child? Why did God choose me? What did I do to deserve this? But I had SUCH a radical transformation when I was able to go through truly grieving the child I thought I was going to have. It was such a hard thing to do, but I'm really happy and proud because I am in such a better place now. Yet, it wasn't always like that. In this episode, I am re-sharing about my experience with the stage of depression, how I was able to process my emotions and fears, and ultimately accept my daughter.  Here's how to connect with me Email: jody@jodywarshawsky.com FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/608571542825070/ FB Page: https://www.facebook.com/acceptingtheunacceptable/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jodywarshawsky/ Website: https://www.jodywarshawsky.com Free "11 Areas to Focus On" Guide asdparenting.com/autism
