In this episode, I talk all about Neurodivergent fatigue and burnout, which affects so many of us. I explain the differences between fatigue and burnout, share my own experiences and how it affects me, and how co occuring conditions make it even harder. I also talk about why neurodivergent people experience such deep exhaustion, including sensory overwhelm, intense emotions, social energy drain,, constant processing and more. Most importantly, I go into what actually helps. From pacing to creating a sensory-safe environment, this episode is full of strategies and self-compassion. I hope you find it useful and relatable.
