Syncopated Dad

Navigating Neurodiversity and Parenthood

Feeling very ‘Dad’ at Christmas

Up at midnight building a trampoline, spending hours putting hundreds of stickers just in the right place on new toys, putting the lights up in the garden are very typical ‘Dad’ activities, but somehow I feel like I’ve been a shit one today. I don’t feel connected with the kids, or my wife. Just surviving the day, desperately trying not to be grumpy. I’m so tired and can’t get a handle on reality at all. So disconnected and out of sync.

Not sure how I’m going to last the next couple of weeks at home. I’m worried I’ll just cause problems. I’m so tired and overwhelmed.
