burnout and catatonia

Hi and welcome to the community.

Your GP certainly might be able to help, including by making a referral to a specialist if appropriate; I strongly suggest making an appointment.

You might also find the advice in these resources helpful:

NAS - Autistic fatigue and burnout

(including potentially requesting a carer's assessment - info for other UK countries is available via the menu bar) 

Hi, Thankyou for the welcome. I've requested a carers assesment by phone some weeks ago but not heard anything. Maybe I will put in in writing. Could you direct me to the template letter on the site. Its mentioned but I can't find it? thank you for your help 

You're welcome!

There's a link to a template letter on this page, under the heading "Asking for a carer’s assessment", along with related instructions:
