Things that actually help with AuDHD burnout (from an AuDHD therapist)
AuDHD burnout isn’t just being tired. It’s a full-system depletion that affects energy, emotions, sensory tolerance, and executive functioning all at once. And for many women, it builds slowly over months of pushing through, masking, and managing more than your nervous system was designed to hold.

The Slow Burn of Audhd Burnout
AuDHD burnout doesn’t usually arrive all at once. It builds gradually, after months (or years) of adapting, masking, pushing through, and managing more than your system comfortably can. There isn’t always a breaking point. Sometimes it just feels like everything takes more effort than it used to.
