Why Playdates can be Exhausting for HSP Parents 1.) Watching your child - If you are at a park, playground, or someone else’s home, you are almost certainly expending a great deal of energy keeping an eye on your child. You don’t want them to hurt themselves, break something, or otherwise put themselves in a difficult situation. Additionally, they may have several needs that arise during the course of the playdate - hunger, toilet, tired, thirst, etc! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/4a6b8797-b670-404b-8f31-903555863ed5/Why+Playdates+can+be+Exhausting+for+HSP+Parents+by+Amy+Lajiness.jpg Blog - Why Playdates can be Exhausting for HSP Parents Lastly, don’t count playdates out completely! If you are honest with yourself about when they feel overwhelming for you, you can feel empowered to make changes in how you approach them. Perhaps only scheduling them once or twice per month, or limiting them to mornings rather than afternoons when both you and your child are tired, could help make playdates fun and worthwhile rather than draining. Be honest with yourself about your limitations and preferences! Doing so will make you a more functional and happy parent, which is pretty darn important. https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/4-ways-to-say-no-as-an-empath-or-highly-sensitive-person monthly 0.5 2022-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/efed0703-1a94-4fb6-858a-227489b2f832/4+Ways+to+Say+%22No%22+as+an+Empath+or+Highly+Sensitive+Person+by+Amy+Lajiness.jpg Blog - 4 Ways to say "No" as an Empath or Highly Sensitive Person - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/65326fd1-922b-48b5-908c-8923cf6b72bb/4+Ways+to+Say+%22No%22+as+an+Empath+or+Highly+Sensitive+Person+by+Amy+Lajiness.jpg Blog - 4 Ways to say "No" as an Empath or Highly Sensitive Person - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/796caba2-d16f-492e-be8d-28422c977275/HSPBoundaries.jpg Blog - 4 Ways to say "No" as an Empath or Highly Sensitive Person - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/3-affirmations-to-support-healthy-boundaries-for-empaths-and-highly-sensitive-people monthly 0.5 2022-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/ea79192f-e9e8-450a-b785-ae7aab2af4ac/Bpundaries.jpg Blog - 3 Affirmations to Support Healthy Boundaries for Empaths and Highly Sensitive People - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/5cea1491-591e-4f7b-9d1f-f81a07c5be87/hspmother.jpg Blog - 3 Affirmations to Support Healthy Boundaries for Empaths and Highly Sensitive People - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/why-is-it-so-difficult-to-set-boundaries-as-an-hsp-or-empath monthly 0.5 2022-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/1661904609783-I0QPJDI6A8PI6C8ENFA2/unsplash-image-eCCIVW84QRA.jpg Blog - Why is it so difficult to set boundaries as an HSP or Empath? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/201423be-5b18-432b-881d-e42b670d8671/Why+is+it+so+difficult+to+set+boundaries+as+an+HSP+or+Empath+by+Amy+Lajiness.png Blog - Why is it so difficult to set boundaries as an HSP or Empath? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/embracing-parenthood-and-releasing-parenting-as-an-hsp monthly 0.5 2022-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/d24a5626-7642-46bc-83e2-a6561693e9eb/Embracing+Parenthood+-+and+Releasing+%22Parenting%22+-+as+an+HSP+by+Amy+Lajiness+-+.jpg Blog - Embracing Parenthood - and Releasing “Parenting” - as an HSP - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/1661352955721-U6I4EZ2WZZIHRN6HIWVS/booksaboutparenting.jpg Blog - Embracing Parenthood - and Releasing “Parenting” - as an HSP - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/5-affirmations-for-hsp-and-empath-parents monthly 0.5 2022-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/c11c8542-9203-48ab-a6d8-28437b152e36/5+Affirmations+for+HSP+and+Empath+Parents+by+Amy+Lajiness.png Blog - 5 Affirmations for HSP and Empath Parents - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/balancing-awareness-activism-and-news-overwhelm monthly 0.5 2022-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/3d7aea5d-3d02-4e0d-a463-e8ac0b109479/Blog+Photos+%287%29.jpg Blog - Balancing Awareness, Activism, and News Overwhelm Highly Sensitive People tend to process deeply, and feel the emotions of others acutely, which is a ripe combination for both ruminating on negative news stories and also feeling depressed or anxious after reading an upsetting news story. I believe that, for many HSPs, reading most news media sends our nervous systems into a fight/flight/freeze that can have a significant impact on our mood, energy levels, and parenting. I have personally experienced feeling deeply upset, anxious, or even emotionally flattened by reading upsetting news. When this happens, it tends to lead to emotionally checking out from my role as a parent, and to lower patience for the challenging moments of parenthood. This is not ideal for my kids, and it’s certainly not ideal for me! https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/back-to-school-season-for-sensitive-parents monthly 0.5 2022-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/18ed53ba-7078-428f-b4d6-0d1b4eb176ca/Highlysensitiveparentood.jpg Blog - Back to School Season for Sensitive Parents - We may feel the excitement associated with fresh school supplies, new beginnings, and cooler weather. At the same time, the changes in routine, pressure to purchase fresh school supplies and outfits, and our own children’s emotions about going back to school can feel overwhelming for HSP parents. Let’s look at some common challenges and how to manage them with ease and confidence! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/3441ee01-d9b5-407e-afc9-4c7429b035c6/highlysensitiveparenthoodbacktoschool.jpg Blog - Back to School Season for Sensitive Parents - Challenge #3: Managing Children’s Emotions For you, and for your child, back-to-school season may bring a mix of excitement, nervousness, and overwhelm. The changes in routine alone can cause emotional upset for HSP parents and children, but add in homework responsibilities, interactions with peers, and a new classroom environment, and there are bound to be some emotional ups and downs. Here are some ways to make the emotional transition back to school a bit smoother: Begin talking about the return to school a few weeks in advance. If possible, drive by and/or visit your child’s school, find a photo of their teacher, and discuss the new things they will be learning this year! https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/why-i-started-highly-sensitive-parenthood monthly 0.5 2022-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/09c2935e-655e-4625-ac99-ca22cc923c8b/Amy+Lajiness.jpg Blog - Why I Started Highly Sensitive Parenthood As I was pondering the connection between sensitivity and parenthood, I realized that although 15-20% of parents are HSPs, there was only a single published book about this topic, and pretty much no other resources! I’ve seen many resources for Highly Sensitive children, and how parents can support the HSP trait for their child, which is fantastic! Understanding our children’s unique traits and supporting them is so very important. However, this can come at the expense of ignoring our own traits, preferences, and needs as parents. This pattern of focusing only on children is often upheld by society’s focus on children’s well-being while not having structural supports in place for parents (for example, babies often have several medical appointments after being born, a mother typically has ONE, six weeks after birth, and any other parents have ZERO!) https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/top-3-challenges-for-highly-sensitive-parents-and-how-to-manage-them monthly 0.5 2022-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/3fb255b7-cd66-4983-a6b1-781d6bff0996/Top+3+Challenges+for+Highly+Sensitive+Parents+%28and+how+to+manage+them%29+by+Amy+Lajiness.jpg Blog - Top 3 Challenges for Highly Sensitive Parents (and how to manage them) Earlier this week, I was chatting with some Highly Sensitive parents at our virtual Coffee Chat, and I asked the question “What are your top challenges as HSP parents?” While there are *MANY* strengths that HSP parents bring to the table (I’ll tackle these in a future blog, I promise), there are also many challenges that are common for sensitive and empath parents. Here are the top 3 that our group identified: https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/the-myth-of-the-superhero-parent monthly 0.5 2022-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/871368b5-b91f-4cfa-9cea-eed26a1a411e/The+Myth+of+the+Superhero+Parent+by+Amy+Lajiness.png Blog - The Myth of the Superhero Parent “Mom, you’re a superhero!” “I don’t know how you do it all!” “This family would fall apart without you!” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/367c36b6-7650-452a-9ce6-1140e8ad70ce/The+Myth+of+the+Superhero+Parent+by+Amy+Lajiness.jpg Blog - The Myth of the Superhero Parent The myth of the superhero parents lifts up those parents who are on the verge of burnout because they are “doing it all” and “nobody else could do it like them.” While hearing “you’re a superhero” and “I don’t know how you’re juggling it all - you’re amazing!” can give us a temporary ego boost, it ultimately sets us up for failure because we feel that we shouldn’t need or want help, or that we are somehow a lesser parent if we can’t (or don’t want to) be a “superhero mom/dad” on any given day. This can be especially true for parents who tend towards people-pleasing or perfectionism, which is often the case for Highly Sensitive (HSP) parents. https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/panic-attacks-and-high-sensitivity-my-story monthly 0.5 2022-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/f9141a7d-de53-422a-a93c-b6cfdc38dc35/Mom+panic+attacks.png Blog - Panic attacks and High Sensitivity: My Story A major turning point in my journey as a Highly Sensitive (HSP) parent was when I had my first panic attack. I had definitely experienced episodes of intense anxiety before, but never anything so debilitating as what occurred a few weeks after the birth of my second child. My husband had gone out for a much-deserved outing with some friends, and I was on my own for the evening for the first time with my 3 year old and 5 week old sons. It started when I was sitting on the floor trying to nurse my crying baby, while my 3 year old was crawling on my back and talking to me incessantly (I love him, but he was a major chatterbox at that age)! In retrospect, it was incredibly physically overstimulating - too much noise, too many physical touches, too many demands on my body and attention. https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/rage-and-the-hsp-parent monthly 0.5 2022-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/f0fed2b9-9a17-45d1-93c5-d2fb6bfefd97/HSPParent.jpg Blog - Rage and the HSP Parent Here’s my take on what is happening: HSP parents are easily overstimulated, and children can be very overstimulating! Don’t forget that parenthood shifts other responsibilities as well - more laundry, more cooking, less sleep, less time to relax and have fun, etc. Many of us Sensitive or Empath parents are consistently under-supported and overwhelmed, and this combination will make even the kindest, most peaceful person feel upset, trapped, and ultimately angry. Let’s ask ourselves: “Is it rage/anger, or is it overstimulation?” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/568c863e-f1c4-44e2-933c-d47708d931a4/Rage+and+the+HSP+Parent+Amy+Lajiness.jpg Blog - Rage and the HSP Parent Next time you feel rage or irritability rising, take a pause and notice what it is you are needing. Then, without guilt or shame, do your best to give yourself that thing (a break, exercise, social connection, sleep, a snack), etc. as soon as you can. Your irritability and rage may just be a nudge to take care of yourself. https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/finding-your-village-as-highly-sensitive-parent monthly 0.5 2022-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/71085011-9a74-4d92-b697-8bc4b48b3305/HSPParents.jpg Blog - Finding your Village as Highly Sensitive Parent Throughout human history, parents had support from extended family, older children, neighbors, and other community members. Community life was a given - humans needed one another to survive and thrive. As I write this, I am in a lovely little coffee shop (shout out to Pappalecco in San Diego) in what I imagine is not only an attempt to get my hands on an exceptional almond croissant, but also to be around other people in a way that is impossible when working from my office at home. Even for HSP introverts like me, it feels good to be around others - we thrive on a certain degree of interdependence and connection with other people! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/1655327059611-IO7MPUVCTCHIS8OG167S/Finding+your+Village+as+Highly+Sensitive+Parent+by+Amy+Lajiness.jpg Blog - Finding your Village as Highly Sensitive Parent So, how do we find this support “village” that seems almost extinct in our modern times? First of all, acknowledge that it may not look like a perfect small tight-knit group of people à la the TV show “Friends.” Your village may include your next door neighbor, who you know you can trust to care for your child an emergency, a colleague from work with whom you go on beach walks every few months, or an old friend who lives in another state. Perhaps it also includes a grandparent with whom you can FaceTime when you’re needing some human connection, or a couple of parents who you know from your child’s preschool. While your community may not feel cohesive and interconnected like we see on TV, it still counts - and it makes a meaningful difference in your life! https://www.highlysensitiveparenthood.com/blog/navigating-hsp-fatherhood-3-strengths-of-highly-sensitive-dads monthly 0.5 2022-12-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/31e90492-7d83-45af-b790-acdf5ce13e61/Navigating+HSP+Fatherhood%3A+3+Strengths+of+Highly+Sensitive+Dads+by+Amy+Lajiness.jpg Blog - Navigating HSP Fatherhood: 3 Strengths of Highly Sensitive Dads Many HSP males have had societal expectations of “toughness,” emotional stability, and emotional suppression placed on them by society. In other words, depending on your culture, gender, and more, you may have been told “stop being so sensitive,” or “why are you so emotional?” as if these are flaws. You may have also been discouraged from seeking support (mental health or otherwise) or from engaging in activities that allow you to experience and process your emotions. If you have experienced these comments or been victimized for your sensitivity, please know that you are not alone, and that the “weaknesses” can actually be strengths that help support you and your family. Here’s how: https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f5e6837e412039501084e2/0c9b36a3-59ec-4bff-b5bc-ecc0b181c6b7/Navigating+HSP+Fatherhood%3A+3+Strengths+of+Highly+Sensitive+Dads+by+Amy+Lajiness.png Blog - Navigating HSP Fatherhood: 3 Strengths of Highly Sensitive Dads I hope that this blog has helped you to see your sensitivity through fresh eyes, letting go of the false belief that your sensitivity is a flaw or weakness. This Father’s Day, I hope you proudly claim your HSP trait and celebrate it as the gift to your family that it truly is. And if your ideal Father’s Day doesn’t include a BBQ or a trip to a noisy bar, but rather a quiet nature hike or some time with a good book, soak it up!
