Am I odd as an autistic person in not experiencing burnout?

About ten years ago my wife became seriously unwell and she decided that she wasn't going to divulge the degree of her illness with me (it was her problem and not mine). It was obvious that she was unwell and suffering,  I was left feeling helpless and isolated as she wouldn't let me in. 

This pushed me to the edge. Things I cope previously deal with seemed almost insurmountable, my generally manageable level of anxiety and depression went through the roof and I felt I couldn't express it, so I buried it (not the healthiest option).

Fortunately she has now recovered, I don't really think I did fully.

So now it's like I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop or for the final straw to find it's was to my inner camel. Now my once excellent coping strategies just don't seem quite as robust as they once were.

I've never suffered a meltdown or shutdown but we all process pressure in different ways.
