Anne MacMillan from R.E.A.L. Neurodiverse dot com discusses the dynamics within neurodiverse ASD families, highlighting the challenges faced by neurotypical caregivers. In families where neurotypical members care for those with Level 1 autism, there is often an imbalance as caregivers take on the role of maintaining calm and managing daily challenges for their autistic family members. Over time, these neurotypical individuals can experience caregiver burnout, leading to exhaustion and frustration. The video explores the complexities of mixed-neurological communication and how professionals often advise caregivers to resume their support without considering the long-term strain already endured. Join Anne as she explores these important topics and the unique experiences of those within neurodiverse ASD marriages.
Neurotypical partners in neurodiverse ASD marriages often work hard to help their partners manage the autism and any comorbid disorders like anxiety and depression. The Level 1 autistic partners are often unaware of their efforts. Over time, the neurotypical partners tire and make the decision to stop helping as much, often leaving the ASD partners feeling wronged.
