burnout

I had an autistic burnout the other day but I got it confused with depression and anxiety, does anyone know the difference and how to deal with it?

Burnout generally is something that lasts for a long time and results in you being unable to do anything much. Recovery tends to be quite long and general consensus is that you just have to let the person do little to nothing to allow their body and mind time to recover. You may have head a warning that you are heading into burnout. What happened? Do you know what triggered it?

Hi, it sounds like you might have had a meltdown or shutdown. Burnouts do tend to last for a much longer time such as weeks or months.
