In #AutisticBurnout, your brain and nervous system are struggling to keep up with unreasonable demands, and have gone into a self protection mode.
Try to honor that, and give yourself compassion. 1/2

I didn't see the signs of my last two major burnouts until I was already deep in them. Or rather, looking back I saw the signs but didn't pay them heed.
I was too stuck in the thinking that I had to keep going to consider other possibilities.

For years, I lived under the wrong diagnosis. Traditional treatments fail when we mistake a nervous system paralyzed by "masking" for a simple chemical imbalance.
In my latest article, I explore the neurobiology of burnout and the emerging role of psilocybin […]

One of the things I figured out on my own self-discovery journey: not doing things that don't need to be done is one of the best uses of my time.

Getting out of burnout isn’t just getting some energy, getting a little motivation and then doing stuff the same way again. It’s doing things in a different way, so that you don’t go into burnout again.

Burnout in autistic people is not a mental health crisis that appeared from nowhere. It is what happens when masking becomes unsustainable. It is cumulative. It is structural. #AutisticBurnout

Autistic Burnout isn’t failure, but it can be a signal that something in our lives isn’t working, and needs to change.
Maybe you’ve been managing too much for too long…

The cure for burnout isn't and can't be self care. It has to be all of us caring for each other. Emily & Amelia Nagoski
Between Belonging
I've been doing a lot of shedding lately. Identities, communities, masks I didn't even know I was wearing. And in the quieter moments I've started to notice what's left when all of that falls away.
The thing that's true across every version […]

1/? so my psych thinks I should be on antidepressants (I just thought I was acting "autistic" because emotional dysregulation is a thing). But I caved, because the anxiety's definitely real, I've been in #AutisticBurnout for several years now. She suggested going on an SSRI #ActuallyAutistic

Seven months and nine days - that's how long it's taken to lodge an incident report at my workplace for burnout from an excessive workload. Damn you, executive function...

I just wanna go seek dopamine at the game store and buy shit I'll never paint and daydream about quests I'll never DM. I wanna build my Great Unclean One and roll my Big Bot Bash sheet and flip through Mork Borg modules. I'm sad and tired and overwhelmed. #MidlifeCrisis #AutisticBurnout

When you’re in burnout, just taking a break is never enough because it’s not solving the issues at the core of it.

Burnout and overwhelm make sensory issues more intense, and they also build up over time, so when you were younger sensory issues may not have been quite as big of a deal.
