    an autistic shutdown --- i become uncontrollably tired, my eyes hurt and want to shut. Very sleepy and very grumpy and irritable. I usually just go into a very deep sleep. I tried mediating when they start but my brain says no way. Even afterwards I feel groggy for a while.

    i have been having them without recognizing what they were - but i started reading up on them due to another thread in this group and suddenly holy crap I realise I have shutdowns once a week or so .! they can be 10 minutes say in work or bigger like last night after being to a local castle.

    The castle had such an amazing history, so thought provoking.  This castle 2 miles form me and i didn't know it was there. You can visit one day per year and no one mentions it. But it was beautiful in its day ............ boom 

    anyways I back in reality

    shutdowns vary quite a bit so read about them more if need be.
