The Hardcore Self Help Podcast

Hello, all! I hope that you are staying healthy and safe. In this episode, I cover two very interesting questions.

Their therapist suggested that they may be on the autism spectrum and the person is wondering whether it would be useful to get an evaluation.

Their partner is a war veteran with multiple brain injuries and the question-asker is wondering how they can stay afloat mentally when their partner does not get help. We talk about ways to avoid codependence, how to establish boundaries, and when to call it quits.
