Autistic burnout is far more than feeling tired. It is a state of overwhelming physical, mental, and emotional exhaustion caused by the constant demands of navigating a world that often isn't designed for autistic people. For many autistic adults, burnout can lead to a loss of skills, increased sensory sensitivity, anxiety, and the need to withdraw just to recover.
In this short from The Autistic Mile, Jim Gaffney shares why autistic burnout is often misunderstood, why it happens, and why recognizing it is the first step toward greater understanding, self-compassion, and support.
