How Parents Can Cope While Raising a Child With Anxiety or OCD with Janine Halloran

When you’re raising a child with anxiety or OCD, so much of your energy can go toward helping them cope that it’s easy to forget that you need coping skills too. In this episode, I’m joined by Janine Halloran, author of Coping Skills for Everyone: A Workbook to Get Unstressed, Recharge, and Stay Calm in a Chaotic World, to talk about coping skills for adults. We talk about what it looks like to take care of yourself when parenting feels stressful, overwhelming, or emotionally exhausting, and why the coping strategies that work for one person may not work for another. If you spend a lot of time thinking about what your child needs but rarely stop to think about what helps you regulate, recharge, and keep going, this conversation is for you.
