“Did you know that burnout is one of the causes of depression and suicidality for Autistic people? Do you know what one of the causes of burnout is? Not getting sufficient rest! Autistic people need a lot of rest. Indeed, the sheer amount needed can be frustrating. Yet the alternative—a debilitating burnout—is even less appealing. So one of the best things you can do for your emotional health is to prioritize rest. Prioritizing rest can be difficult for many people, especially those driven by an internal belief that you should be able to just “push through”—a notion often tied to internalized ableism.”

“Having a ready-to-go list of “droppable” demands can be a lifesaver on high-sensory days or when burnout signs start to surface. Consider employing a traffic light system for your responsibilities, categorizing demands into green, yellow, and red activities. Green tasks can be put aside without notable ramifications. Yellow tasks can occasionally be set aside, depending on prevailing circumstances. Red tasks pose more of a challenge to dismiss, given the potentially significant repercussions.”
