@autistics @actuallyadhd 14 months since my autism diagnosis. Almost seems as though I've become "more autistic" since. I suspect, though, that's a fresh new hell of autistic burnout setting in perhaps flavored with a splash of depression. Going out on routine errands is exhausting and overwhelming. A simple phone call with a veterinarian's office depletes me. It's difficult to find motivation for damn near anything. There are some relatively new studies that try to describe the autistic burnout experience. See "Burnout as experienced by autistic people: A systematic review" #actuallyautistic #actuallyaudhd
