chronic fatigue from mental illness and neurodivergency isn't something you can just will your way out of. your nervous system is part of your body. your brain is an organ. the fatigue is real. you're not lazy. so be kinder to yourself. be gentler with your bodymind.

Hey btw if you have an autistic person in your life pls know that they do care about you. They're bonding with you by sitting near you, by sending you memes, by liking your posts, by info dumping to you. We have weird ways of showing we care but trust me we do.

Autistic meltdowns aren't synonymous with temper tantrums, by the way.

You're not autistic, you're just a little silly!
And you cry when people change things but that's unrelated-- :D

Autistic burnout first hit me when I was in my early teens, but I had no idea what it was, so I wasn't able to properly recover from it. It got so bad that I had to drop out of school a few years later. If I hadn't left school I don't know if I ever could've recovered.
Autistic burnout is real, and it's bad. Please take it seriously.

in another life, i find out i am autistic at 12 instead of at 29. i am still bullied, but my parents put me in another school. i get the support i need. i find friends who love me for who i am. my mom and dad don’t yell. instead, they comfort me during my meltdowns. they support me. i grow up knowing who i am, what i am, and i learn how my body works instead of wondering why i can’t speak the language of everyone else around me despite having english as my native language.

Oh no, I'm not burned out, I'm still a smoldering pile of ashes. Lots of embers left to burn here.

this may be incredibly obvious to everyone else, but it wasn't to me, so friendly reminder that "losing skills" with autistic burnout can include coping skills!
ive had burnout on and off the past few weeks. today i saw someone in a video mention losing skills and wondered if it applied to me. i mostly was thinking of work skills, hobby skills, or motor skills for some reason. that sort of thing. and i thought, nahh. still have all those i think!
then later i caught myself going "WHY do i feel like all these therapy things i fixed are problems again? why is my brain insisting everything we do is 'cringe' why cant i talk abt my feelings, why am i second guessing everything i say in at least five different dimensions? why is my brain doing things it hasnt done in like TEN YEARS?"
surprise!
IT IS THE BURNOUT~~

“autism is a superpower!”
yeah not being able to communicate verbally, internalising my feelings, shutting down, self harm, flapping my arms around crying, isolating, chronic loneliness, pulling my hair out and not being able to eat make me batman 💪😎

I'm asking autistics and other ND people mainly, people who work full/part time: how do you all cope with burnout? Like I don't know how to get more rest, I have problems sleeping, I can barely take care of myself, 0 motivation. At this point I can barely make myself go to work. How do you lot cope?
