A couple of weeks ago, we finally got in to see a child psychologist. She prescribed Zoloft for Sawyer, and it is working wonderfully for him!

Autism Is Not A Disease, It’s a Difference
If you haven’t heard RFK Jr’s disgusting comments about autism spectrum disorder by now, you’ve been living under a rock. I have never gotten political on this blog before, and I never intended to. However, with everything going on in the world right now, I cannot stay silent.
God Doesn’t Make Mistakes
Sawyer often tells me he feels like a failure, or that he feels like he’s stupid. He has told me multiple times now that he doesn’t know why he’s even alive. I tell him “God doesn’t make mistakes, and He made you because He thought the world needed one of you.” What I don’t tell Sawyer is that I feel like a failure because I can’t just magically make him feel better.
Is There a Cure for Autism?
I had a conversation last night with a woman I met on Reddit in a group for special needs parents.
Am I Autistic?
“Am I autistic?” I knew there would be a day when Sawyer would realize he was different than other kids.
