Autistic Burnout 🧩🔥

when your art program’s closing message hits you straight in the heart and makes you stop and contemplate the state of it all

Reblog to give the person you reblogged it from the energy to do one (1) chore or maybe many

Wild how just being allowed to do the "if it looks stupid but it works" fixes to regulate your mood actually fixes things?? Like your mood is now successfully regulated because you were allowed to do that. Had to sit in a car for 3,5 hours straight today - we were supposed to take a break every hour or so but because of trucks and other traffic nonsense we could only manage one stop during the whole way, and by the end side I was so irate and agitated I was pissing myself off with it, I had been Sitting Too Long, it was hot, I could feel bedsores developing on my ass and the back of my thighs, I was getting mad about my face being oily and ugly and the sun was touching me and I was too angry to wear shoes.

And just when we were just about to get home, and needed to stop for something, found the shop closed, and the next one was a 3 minute drive away, I was not going back into the car. I get that my boyfriend had been sitting right next to me and driving takes more out of him than being a passenger takes out of me, but I was done being in the Hurty Confinement Box, I can't make myself go back in and he can't make me. I'm walking there, it's a 3 minute drive and it's going to take like 15-20 minutes by foot but I NEED to walk.

And he was just like "alright I'll meet you there" and I angry-speedwalked there, mentally and physically cooling down and decompressing, and was completely fine once I got there.

Funny how just being allowed to do the stupid shit you need to do for the betterment and maintenance of your mental state actually does, indeed, help improve and maintain a better mental state.

So, I went to go talk to a “prescriber” yesterday about adhd medication, but the lady who spoke to me was condescending, infantilizing and don’t think she knew what she was doing? (when asked her about food to avoid with adhd meds, she said “oh, I don’t know anything about that. I can check online, though.” o-0 concerning) anyway, when talking lady was pushy for me to go on a lisdexamfetamine when I just wanted the concerta, but she kept mentioning that some people find adhd medication “changes” them and they find the change hard to deal with, sometimes they take different type of adhd medication that helps get everything done in morning that need to be done but then can feel more like themself in the evening? So I needed to be careful, and to watch how the medication makes me feel as a person.

Is this a bad thing to say? Never heard about adhd medication changing a person… Is it true? I’m lost, don’t know why she kept saying it

I wanted to brag and show them my story but I kinda forgot to write it down. Nobody ever seen me write either.

Write style: no prompt, no ending, not even middle.

"Surely I am faking this" I tell myself crying quietly and alone. "I am doing this for attention", I sob.

"surely im faking this," i think, directly experiencing all the symptoms nd not benefiting from it at all
