Deep down, you know life can be better. You've done your best to keep it together in spite of how difficult it seems to do and to be your best. You may have endured stigma for being "different," or experienced bullying or neglect. You may be struggling in a family relationship or with your partner because you or the other person is neurodivergent or from a different culture. You might be dealing with debilitating fear, worry, anger, shame, and sadness, wondering if life has to always be this hard. Deep inside you, though, there's a small voice of hope that says you can do better than just "making do."
