Understanding Meltdowns: Research and Self-DiscoveryAdded:
I've spent more hours than I care to count lying in bed afterwards, running footage frame by frame, trying to figure out what I did wrong, or what was wrong with me, or convincing myself that functioning adults should be able to handle stuff and not have meltdowns without falling apart.
Yep. So, this is what I know, and because there's what research tells us.
So, today we're going to look at that, and we're going to talk about the research of meltdowns, because I want to understand it more myself, so that I don't feel as much shame around what that is.
