Autistic Burnout and Issues at work

I dont know what to say as every ti!e I hit burnout I handed in my notice, and the notice period was the most internally stressful part of working in my life. If I could just walk out and quit I wpuld save myself through torture... But then it would have dented my record.  Past drs never wanted to know so I never got any help. (After 20+ years of no help whatsoever I changed doctors and it was like coming out of a third world country into the modern world!)

Burnout is serious..The last one I had left me standing in the middle of a car park not knowing what to do because I had forgotton how to walk!  I had to write down all my passwords.I was frightened and ine a real mess! The day after the last day I worked was an autism open day drop in thingie, as I was already on the list to be assessed (That was over four years ago and recently been assessed), and when they saw the mess I was in they wanted to push me forward to be assessed but were told they were not allowed. First time I met anyone anywhere who understood what I was going through! They arranged (Had changed doctors by then) for me to get a sicknote so I could claim sickness benefit, but had to wait a month and a half as I could not do the online forms and was going to give up, but one of my Mums friends helped as she works for a charity called Mind so knew how to do the forms...But past burnouts left me without an income for a year or two ata time so I could recover. Lost my house, classic car and a camper. Had to sell so many things at next to nothing in prices to survive. So many people took advantage! 

So last time I worked was in 2019. Burnouts are horrible! Was desperately waiting to be assessed as I didn't know if they were burnouts or mental breakdowns and was told I needed to be assessed for autism first and that would tell me if they are burnout or breakdown as in the health athority area I was in, they said it was the same people I would see. (Moved area about six months ago to an area with shorter waiting lists so have assessment finished about a week ago, and I am on the spectrum which shows it was burnouts and not breakdowns. First went on the assessment list in very early may 2019).
