Does anyone else feel like they have to constantly explain what autistic burnout is like to others, such as GP's, manager at work and even to friends.
If, for example, I'd had a stroke, would I need to explain myself so much? Don't think so. Ive got GP appointment tomorrow and have just written a page of notes to try to show why im not fit for work.
I say to some friends , im completely exhausted and then they explain how they're exhausted too!! No, its not the same, you are functioning, I am not.
Why do i feel i have to justify this? Have others felt like this?
