By sharing facts and starting conversations, we can help break the taboo and support those affected.

Did you know? • Women are twice as likely as men to experience incontinence. • Stress is the leading cause of urinary leaks. • The fear of leaking can sometimes lead to social withdrawal and isolation.

Sorry in advance for the rant, I’m just at a loss right now.

My dad’s dementia is really bad today. I might have to cancel my upcoming trip because if he’s acting like this with me here I can’t imagine what he’s going to be like while my brother is at work all day. I promise It’s not that I don’t want to take care of him, it seems like I can never catch a break. It also just takes a lot out of me to do so considering all the trauma he’s caused (he’s knocked out my front teeth and has se*ualized me which I later found out was due to his diagnosis) and since I’m unable to work a normal 9-5 due to my mental health not only is it hard to provide, I’m expected to be here 24/7. I just don’t know what to do.

Augmented communication devices: Enable effective expression for non-verbal individuals.

Customizable visuals and reduced noise: Tech with sensory-friendly design for comfort.

Cost-friendly ways to help your child with overstimulation:

Sensory Apps: Free or low-cost options for sensory regulation.

Visual Schedule Apps: Affordable tools for organizing routines.

Social Skills Apps: Interactive lessons to improve social skills.

Online Resources and Videos: Free educational content and support.

DIY Sensory Toys: Create sensory tools at home inexpensively.

Webinars and Support Groups: Access guidance and a sense of community.
