Does anyone else get fatigued and a headache after going out like into shops and when you've been socialising?
I get this all the time and it really puts me off from going out. I go in to it with a positive attitude as well and it makes no difference. I've been told it would make a difference but it hasn't. It's so frustrating because I just want to get on but because I went out this morning I'm now feeling extremely fatigued, dizzy and I have a headache. I don't know why this happens. It's nothing serious, I've had tests at the doctors and nothing was ever found and yet here I am feeling like I've just run the marathon....
I don't know if it's the autism or the anxiety... Or maybe a bit of it all together?
I do know though that I hate getting like this. I was diagnosed with ASD when I was 14 and though it's been over 10 years since my diagnosis I don't really know anything about ASD and how it affects my life.
That's why I've joined here really to try and find out more about it. Hopefully then I'll be able to better manage how it affects me.
This fatigue I get when I go out and do things has already cost me my job. I waited so long to get a chance at work and after a few days I was practically bed ridden. It's crazy.
I'm in bed bed now, absolutely exhausted, and feeling like death. Wish this wouldn't happen I really do. It's fine when I stay in my room but when I leave my comfort zone all hell breaks loose and I'm left feeling like I've got a flu bug thing.
I did say to the doctor but she won't give me anything because it's not real. She thinks it's a mental thing and "phantom" pain and exhaustion. No use at all. Rest helps but it takes time to recover.
Sorry for the rant. Not really how I wanted to introduce myself to the community. I'm just tired and feeling run down.
CouId it be you suffer with migraines do you have visual / light sensitivity or sensory integration issues ? I don't have headaches but I do develope symptoms of secondary narcolepsy type 1 , when people discuss their issues online pretmdtory narcissistic idiots do stalk in public and attempt to trigger your condition , they position themselves to trigger your fight or flight they attack the senses and sympathetic nervousystem they surround you and destroy your life , they hsve no right but they do it regardless and what they do places people in crisis and ruins the hard work of all concerned and consultants Dr's and specialists they cause psychological scaring that lasts a lifetime , they are covert about what they do because they do understand just how disgusting antisocial and devious it is and how abnormal pathetic and despised by others it is to enjoy or be exited to target a individuals vulnrabilities and stalk to attack and destroy them, the world is not the place it was society has changes what was once utterly unacceptable and rejected by the vast majority of people now seems to be ignored to the point it has become tolerate and in turn by simply ignoring it , it has encouraged the worst behavioural traits in a small portion of people who have do have the intrinsic abikity to become narcissistic and psychopathic , I truly dispare .
