11. Co-Regulation When You’re Not Regulated: Calming Your Child When You’re Overwhelmed

9 min•24 november 2025

How do you handle a meltdown when you're overstimulated already? How do you help your child calm down when you’re not calm yourself?

In this episode, Faustina shares small, realistic ways to co-regulate while healing — grounding tips for overstimulation, honest scripts for connection, and a reminder that repair matters more than perfection. This can be particularly difficult for autistic single mothers as there is no other adult to fall back on when we are not regulated.
