Autistic Burnout isn’t about being tired. It’s what happens when you’ve spent years pretending the world doesn’t hurt. Your body finally says “no more”. It’s not weakness - it’s your nervous system’s truth catching up. It’s more a return, albeit a hard one, than a crash.

“I’m autistic so I’m allowed to be an asshole” (by your own standards - not others) isn’t the flex you think it is.

You’ve learned to perform competence at any cost. But behind it is exhaustion. I work with autistic academics, executives, clergy, medical professionals, and creatives - to help you lead, rest, and live without the mask. www.theautisticcoach.com/autistic-pee...

Just having a diagnosis or identification isn’t the last step It’s the first

You don’t need to be less autistic. You need support that understands how you actually work. My 1:1 peer-support coaching offers autistic-led guidance to help you unmask, and rebuild life around your actual needs. www.theautisticcoach.com/autistic-pee...

Dear bullies who also happen to be autistic, Stop using “I’m autistic” to justify your bullying and abuse of others. Use that beloved “autistic sense of honesty” to be straight up about what you are. A bully who uses your edgelordiness to mask your insecurities while calling it unmasking.

On January 17 I'll be in London for my talk on autistic meltdowns, shutdowns, and burnout. I don't treat them as things to be cured - that's behaviourism and leads no where. We'll dig in how to understand them, learn from them, and grow. www.theautisticcoach.com/the-autistic...

Just having a diagnosis or identification isn’t the last step It’s the first

People often think the hardest part of late identifying autistic is the diagnosis. That the report will give clarity. It’s not. It’s learning how to stop performing in a world that rewards the mask. That’s the work. And it’s worth doing.

Violence committed by society can only be healed by other people. I cannot heal myself of alienation and exclusion. → Only woke allistics can do that. → Only bourgeois Autistics opening their purses and resources can do that. → Only neuroaffirmative healthcare can do that. #autism

Autistic adults need support from those around us. This support needs to be grounded in not changing us - not forcing us - not abusing us. My 5-week workshop will help you to support your autistic loved ones and friends in an affirming way. www.theautisticcoach.com/allies-autis...

if you're the type of autistic who is speaking about "real autistics" and "fake autistics" you're a shmuck.

ABA Is not for autistic people. It’s concept is making autistic people tie themselves into knots so that autistic folks feel more comfortable around us. It’s inherently violent bc we are forced to mask which is draining our resources causing all sorts of long term damage up to autistic burnout.

Because I’m autistic, people assume I have no brain, heart, or soul. I do have them. But after a lifetime of being told I was selfish and creepy, my brain, heart, and soul are broken. I’ll never fully heal. What healing I can get, I can never provide myself. I’ll always need help.

Finding out you’re autistic isn’t a personality update. It has potential for a full nervous-system rewrite. Your past starts making sense in real time. Your future suddenly feels negotiable. And you finally stop apologising for being built differently. And this makes HUGE changes to YOU.
