Autistic people need downtime in order to process, reintegrate, stim, watch favorite videos—however they best decompress.

LET AUTISTIC PEOPLE HAVE THEIR SPACE!

Autistic Meltdowns. Shutdowns. Burnout.

They’re not failures.

They’re information - the bodymind’s way of saying “I’ve carried too much for too long”.

In my upcoming seminar in London, we’ll explore what these states really mean - not as pathology, but as communication.

📢 New research!

Autism isn’t *just* about challenges

We have strengths too but these are rarely recognised, which can lead to:

- low self-esteem
- shame
- stigma
- having less direction in life

Lampinen et al explore autistic strengths in a new paper 😊

Do you relate to any of these? 👇

We don’t “bounce back” from autistic burnout overnight.

It’s not exhaustion that a nap can fix.

It’s collapse - years of unmet needs crashing into us all at once.

Recovery from burnout isn’t about going back to who we were.

Recovery is building a life that actually fits our needs.

Trump is calling autism “out of control”

No…

Autism stigma is out of control

Ableism is out of control

Inaccessibility to basic healthcare and support is out of control

RFK Jr said vaccines.

Now it’s Tylenol.

Everyone yells “no!” then adds “this tragedy isn’t caused by X”.

Stop. Autism isn’t a tragedy.

Ableism is.

Reject bad science without throwing autistic humans under the bus.

Autism and proprioception

(something I don’t see talked about enough!)

Proprioception differences in autism may be why…

- you easily bump into things
- fine motor skills are hard e.g. doing buttons
- you enjoy pushing, pulling or squeezing things
- you love deep pressure like weighted blankets

Autism affects the nervous system, not just social behavior. Many autistic individuals live with chronic sensory overload, emotional dysregulation, and interoceptive differences that are often misunderstood or dismissed.

🌿 So what is autism really?

It's a neurobiological difference in how the nervous system perceives, processes, and regulates the world — both outside and inside.

It’s not something to fix.
It’s something to understand, support, and work with.

You don’t need to earn rest.

You don’t need to justify why your bodymind needs downtime.

Rest is not laziness - it’s survival.

A natural part of being a human.

It’s how we rebuild, regulate, and keep going in a world that takes too much.
