#AskingAutistics, can yall describe what meltdowns feel like to you? Because I'm #ActuallyAutistic but for the life of me I can't figure out if I've had meltdowns or what they present as & feel like.

I just don't see myself in most information about meltdowns because I don't
hurt myself, I don't think I scream at people, I don't think I shut down from Everything Being Too Much. I just... I know I'm autistic, but I feel like a fake and an outsider because I don't know what a meltdown feels like and I don't know if I've had any. Certainly nothing that
I've seen or heard others describe before.

The closest I've come was this, when I read something that made me wonder if my anxiety attacks or whatever my episodes are around writing are attacks or possibly meltdowns. https://twitter.com/IzntGoingAway/status/1383499261153726468?s=19
Anyways, if yall could help me out by describing what your meltdowns are like, what you've heard, giving me any sort of advice or even just retweeting for a larger audience, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you!
