Writing this piece was a bit of a self-reminder: you don’t have to hold everything together to be strong.
Sometimes, the most courageous thing you can do is let yourself rest — or let someone else carry a bit of the weight.

💛 When Everyone Relies on You: The Weight of Being the Strong One
https://www.amazeinminds.com.au/being-the-strong-one/

Feeling like you have to hold everything together? Learn how being the “strong one” takes a toll — and what helps you find balance again.

Some parents are tired. Others are bone-deep exhausted.

If you’re constantly running on empty, snapping at small things, or feeling guilty for not enjoying parenting—you might be experiencing parental burnout.

It doesn’t mean you don’t love your children. It means you’ve been giving more than you’ve been able to refill. 💛

Our latest blog explores what parental burnout really is, why it’s so common (especially for parents of neurodivergent or high-needs kids), and gentle, practical steps to help you recover your balance.

Parental burnout is real. Learn why you're feeling exhausted as a parent and how psychologists help parents recover balance and wellbeing.

People pleasing often comes from such a good place—kindness, care, wanting to avoid conflict—but over time it can take a toll. Burnout, resentment, anxiety, even losing sight of your own needs.

We pulled together a new blog that looks at:
👉 why people pleasing develops
👉 the subtle signs you might not notice
👉 gentle strategies to start creating boundaries

If you’ve ever caught yourself saying yes when you really wanted to say no, then this one might resonate:

People pleasing comes from care and kindness—but it also comes from fear and drains us. Learn how to stand up for yourself and set boundaries

Confession time: it’s been over two weeks since our last blog post. We’d love to say it was all part of a plan… but the truth is, we procrastinated a little. 😉

Inside, you’ll find:
✅ Why isn’t about laziness
✅ What makes it worse (hello, stress and distractions)
✅ Practical, research-backed tips (including some great apps)

We’re seeing more people using ChatGPT for mental health support. It’s easy, available 24/7, and can feel like a safe space to “talk.”

But AI isn’t therapy. Psychologists bring real empathy, understanding, and personalised care that technology just can’t match.

We wrote a short blog looking at why people are turning to ChatGPT, what it can (and can’t) offer, and why psychologists are still so important.

ChatGPT mental health use is growing. Learn the pros and cons, and why psychologists remain vital for safe, effective support.

Do you know the signs of gaslighting in relationships?
They often sound like everyday comments, but repeated over time, they chip away at your confidence and self-trust.

Here are some common ones:

❌ “That never happened.”
😶 “You’re imagining things.”
🙄 “You’re too sensitive.”
🔄 “You’re overreacting.”
👉 “It’s your fault.”

Gaslighting is more than just a disagreement — it’s a repeated pattern of emotional manipulation. Recognising the signs is the first step towards recovery.

Read our full blog on the psychology, warning signs, and recovery strategies here: https://www.amazeinminds.com.au/gaslighting-in-relationships/

Understand gaslighting in relationships: psychology, warning signs, impacts on mental health, and evidence-based recovery strategies.

Many autistic adults are living with significant anxiety that’s hidden behind years of masking. Outwardly they may seem calm and capable, but internally they’re navigating constant self-monitoring, sensory strain, and the pressure to “pass” in environments not built for them.

We’ve written a new blog to help explain this experience, why it’s often overlooked, and what can help — for both the person masking as well as the people around them.

Read here: https://www.amazeinminds.com.au/anxiety-masking-autism/

Anxiety and masking often go hand-in-hand for autistic adults. Learn why it happens, how it feels, and what helps.

😩😰We talk about anxiety a lot — but do we always know what it actually is?

In our latest blog, we unpack some of the confusion around “anxiety symptoms”. It’s a term that gets thrown around a lot, but not everything uncomfortable is anxiety — and not all anxiety looks the way you'd expect.

📢This one’s especially for adults who seem to “function fine” but are quietly exhausted underneath it all!

We hope it helps make things a little clearer ...and a little less lonely! 🩷

Anxiety symptoms aren’t just stress or worry. Learn what clinical anxiety really looks like as we debunk the most common myths.
