Um I even keep a jar, a clear jar at home and we have colored posters and we write things on colored posters and we can actually start seeing the jar get full with all these colored posters and it's just a nice visual reminder of what we're experiencing.
Um so I love that.
Thank you, Laura.
I wanted to add another
Our third and final poll.
So what is the hardest part of supporting someone?
We've kind of shared a a couple things that can be quite challenging.
Um so some of the responses are not knowing what to say, feeling helpless, that's quite a big one.
Knowing when to step in.
Again, we've kind of covered that.
So that's definitely a common one too.
And then managing my own emotions.
I really like that last one.
Um. 'Cause that really resonates with me as well.
And I I can share a little bit about that too.
So I think while we're waiting for some of the the answers, um in the previous webinar we we were speaking about our personal experiences and having two kids, uh one with with picking and one with pulling, being a mental health professional for 20 years, um, and you know, the CV, all colourful and beautiful and gold stars everywhere when it comes to providing support.
um for the mental health community.
One would think that, you know, you wouldn't have kids that are struggling or who have challenges.
Like you would be in opportun you would be in a position to um prevent all of that from happening.
Um so I experienced like a lot of shame and a lot of guilt.
