Celebrating #maythe4thbewithyou Laying in bed. Matbe interesting for other people sharing similar tastes of neurodivergence. Got overestimulated and overdriven for weeks. Unable to get out of bed. Brain is active but unable to engage with my to do list. Physically weak.i cant be convinced to speak or listen to people speaking to save my life. Now the interesting part. I know shutdowns. Even if i didnt: pulse slows down, hunger is gone, a ridiculous absence of the need to use the bathroom, sense of time and space very porous, sometimes ego dissolution. Usually i know it will be over soonish because stomach starts making noises or salivating comes back. (do other people get these parasympatic symptoms too?) I have been in burn out since months and i am basically managing shutdowns. No idea how to get out of this (without taking a year sabatical planting cabages away from home). #ActuallyAutistic @autistics
