Recently understood that you're autistic?

My workshop is digging into regulation, meltdowns, shutdowns, burnout, unmasking and all the things you want to know about.

Research links alexithymia with binge eating.

Alexithymia is all about difficulty around identifying emotions.

If emotional states feel like vague internal discomfort, our bodies look for ways to regulate that.

Food is one of the fastest ways the nervous system can do that.

Et voila.

Autistic Burnout changes how our bodies work.

Hunger signals get quieter.

Fullness signals get confusing.

Energy disappears.

So we skip meals without realizing it.

Then suddenly the body panics.

Binge.

And eating stops being a choice.

It becomes survival.

Uta Firth has always been an autistiphobic ableist autism researcher.

This isn’t something new.

Thanks to her the idea of autistic people having “no theory of mind” became prevalent

I’m sitting on the train.

I have a pin on my bag that says “I’m autistic” and I’m wearing my disability ID around my neck

The person sitting across from me is giving me death stares

I ask them if there’s an issue.

“You don’t look autistic - shame on you”

The joys of riding public transport.

Autistic burnout and binge eating are often connected.

But not for the reasons people assume.

It’s not always about “self-control.”

It’s about a nervous system that has been pushed past capacity.

When you’re burned out you interoception gets less pronounced - your regulation goes out the window.

You forget to eat all day.

Then suddenly your body is starving.

Or you’re so dysregulated that food becomes the fastest way to ground your nervous system.

Sugar, salt, texture, fullness.

Instant regulation.

From the outside it looks like a binge.

From the inside it’s often a body trying to survive chronic overwhelm.

A lot of autistic people aren’t struggling with willpower.

We’re struggling with Autistic Burnout.

Yet it's not being seen by those who support us.

Shame ensues.

Autistic Burnout doesn’t start when you collapse.

It starts much earlier.

When you say yes, instead of “I can’t.”

When you smile. instead of stim.

When you stay, instead of leave.

Burnout isn’t sudden.

It’s thousands of moments where survival wins over truth.

Until the body can’t lie anymore.

toxic positivity is a form of internalized ableism

naming difficulties and challenges as disabled people isn't ableist or "negative" or "victim politics"

it's reality and it's OK to give that a voice

It's more than OK - it's essential

we can be positive and love ourselves AND speak our truth

Professionalism isn't a neutral term.

It's a cultural aesthetic that is often arbitrary.

Eye contact.

Tone.

Speed.

Energy.

Dress.

When these become moralised, which they almost always are, disability becomes seen as misconduct, deviance, and defiance.
