Autism burnout

So. I am reaching my limit. Over the past couple of months, my brain has felt more and more overloaded. I recognise that the xmas period completely upends my grounding routines, and have made adjustments for that. Bit still i feel completely overwhelmed and burnt out. I do not want to reach the point of no return. I would appreciate any input right now. Does anyone have any coping strategies? How to get on an equilibrium again? Many thanks in advance.

  • Hey, really sorry to hear you are suffering, empathy may not be my strong point but it’s written in text so easier to digest. Christmas is a really awkward time for people with ASD, a lot to think about, a lot of planning and spending money, it’s all very overwhelming for anyone. My solution would be to where you can perhaps continue your previous routine? That’s where I’m at right now, fighting on till the day the world settles down again, it’s worth it, keep going!

  • Gosh, that sums it up, just battling through until the world comes to its senses again! 

    Trying very hard to put my routines into place again. Thank you for the reminder that it is indeed worth it!

    Very best wishes in your own battle, and thank you for replying, it is very much appreciated!!
