Short version: autistic burnout is not ordinary “stress”. It’s a prolonged state of exhaustion, reduced capacity and often a temporary loss of skills, typically triggered by chronic load, sensory overwhelm and a mismatch between expectations and support.

Fix the workflow and most “performance issues” evaporate into simple design problems. What dyslexia typically affects (and what it doesn’t) Research consistently li
