I’ve recently seen so many posts/articles online about girls with autism behaving really well at school and then having meltdowns at home as a result of being exhausted from masking all day. I was the opposite and I just don’t know why. I was awful at school - like excluded/suspended multiple times from year 8 onwards. But at home I was literally an angel child, so much so that my parents never believed the school when they would report what happened each day.
Can anyone offer any explanation as to why this may be?
