What relationships have a positive impact on you?
Right off the bat I can think of three people in my life who have a positive impact on me.
My mam is my number one cheerleader in my life. We’ve had our ups and downs but that was all before my prefrontal cortex section of my brain fully developed like every young person. However, I no longer consider myself all that youthful any longer as I am in my mid 30s. But my mam has been there through everything. She has wiped away my tears, given me bear hugs when I needed a sensory thingamajig when my sensory overload got too much and she has been, well, my mammy. She has been my carer when I became very unwell nine years ago and I probably wouldn’t be alive today if it wasn’t for her care and tenderness.
I’m also still alive because of my stepdad Ronan who married my mam just over a year ago.
