What is Autistic Burnout?
Autistic burnout is more than just being “tired.” It’s a state of deep exhaustion that happens when neurodivergent adults spend too long pushing past their limits. It can look like sensory overload, emotional shutdown, and difficulty managing daily life.
For many late-identified neurodivergent people, burnout shows up after years of masking or trying to keep up with expectations that don’t fit their brains. Recognizing the signs is the first step toward recovery.
