When Caris was diagnosed recently with Selective Mutism, an anxiety disorder that causes her to be mute in certain social situations, I found my own anxiety spiraling. I realized that in order to help her, I have to work on my own inner peace. I wanted to share these five things that have helped me tremendously as I navigate this: 💛 Let go of the guilt. Guilt that I may have passed this trait on to her, reminding myself that I didn’t choose this for myself, nor would I have chosen this for her.
