100% agree:
"Burnout is caused and sustained by lack of connection to your autistic self and a denial of your autistic needs."
My dad, I suspect autistic, hit burnout so hard, he did not survive more than 3 years after losing interest in pretending to be NT. He rarely spoke of his past, but he did say he was abused.He behaved like a working class human, (money > life). I never forgot the look of his delight when he teased me with misaligned objects.
