You are a very bright woman who has a lot going on. I am not familiar with Asperger's and how that affects things but I am certain you will figure out how to handle these challenges and good on you for taking steps towards that.
There is a saying 'Success is not measured by the heights one attains, but by the obstacles one overcomes in its attainment'. One of those feel good/motivational phrases but it has always struck a chord with me.
In particular it made me re-think what a successful life would look like for me and how I defined success.
I only say this because in your earlier posts you comment on the fact you nearly burnt yourself out and have a habit of taking too much on.
So when you say carving out a successful life what does that look like to you?
