My husband and I have been married for just over a year. He is active duty Air Force about to deploy overseas for six months. I am having huge anxiety about this because it's the first time for me and our youngest (9M). Our oldest (14M) has been through lots of deployments and TDYs and so is very nonchalant. The little one is having BIG feelings and I don't know how best to support him because I don't know what to expect. It's worth mentioning that both boys are AuDHD but opposite sides of ths spectrum so to speak.
We have just over a week until my husband leaves. I feel like I need to maintain as much normalcy as possible but also want to relax rules a little to make it a good last week and help manage all the emotions. What is the best move? How do I support my kids and my husband and also a little bit myself? Any advice or support is welcome. I am just a big ol' baby.
