I wanted to start a thread on autism and sharing experience of crisis - not necessarily to vent but to perhaps provide support through insights and tips.
I had a crisis in 2018, no one could understand what I was really experiencing, largely due to maybe to the fact that it felt like I was exploding and shutting down in one. It lasted a few weeks and had some big impacts. Now it has been noted and is being looked into the fact I am most likely autistic and have been living all my 34 years as a high functioning. However. I find that it is maybe the symptoms of autism which are preventing recovery.
I think recovery from this is a challenge in itself but I wanted to open discussion about how people see the specific effects of their autism within recovery from crisis/breakdown.
One love
