Feeling particularly autistic today

Mummycat

Do you ever have days when you feel more autistic than normal? I do and I'm having one today, I feel emotionally wobbly and feel like I can't do anything, but odlly I don't feel brain foggy, just like, everything is too much effort is too scary and pretty pointless as it will all go wrong.

    I definitely feel like this - I put it down to exhaustion, the more tired, worn out or stressed you are the lower your ‘defences’ and ability to function is and so you feel more autistic (or that’s how it is for me). I also think my challenges are getting harder as I get older, probably for the same reason as above. The other thing with age though is that your tolerance for try g to hide your struggles is lower so they can be more obvious to others (again, this is how it is for me, may not be the same for everyone).
