Being #Autistic during a #pandemic : trying to stay busy to keep brain from crashing into burnout. Work to much resulting in PDA and near #autisticburnout. Can feel cognitive function declining, harder to understand what I’m reading or hearing, forgetting words while talking...

Increasingly becoming nonverbal, not wanting or really being able to talk. Increased food aversions, want for samefoods and routine only which I can’t achieve. Increase in aggression and hostility. Brain fog, executive dysfunction, sensory overloads in my sleep! #anxiety is up.

It’s easiest for me to type right now, but it takes me a while to get my words right. I feel like I’m constantly reading what I wrote and realizing it didn’t make sense, just to fix it and it still not make sense. Forgetting my train of thought halfway through

Where was I even going with this? I don’t know lol.
Fellow #autistics you are not alone if you are having a rough time right now, I wish I had some super inspiring words to get us all through this but all I have is I’m there too #autism #ActuallyAutistic #COVID19
