- After finding out I'm autistic a couple years ago and realizing I was in autistic burnout, I've been slowly trying to recover from it. Here's a bit about what I've done and how it's going.

YES! The outdoors is so regulating to me too. Agree on the heat issue. I’m glad I had the chance to move back to Massachusetts from TX. I’m looking forward to switching to a job that puts me outside more.
Love the phrase “above my capacity” - thanks for that one :)
the closest i could figure out to "Undoing" camouflage reflexes-moreso the reasons behind them-is deciding what i wanna be private about in terms of talking, in terms of composure (emotional privacy), and in terms of boundaries (social access to me). What's leftover, i make a mental note of when I'm still withholding it for safety reasons.
eventually, what i call it ("camouflage", "masking") is less pressing and can just be another mental note
mental note doesn't necessarily mean dispassionate
I'm only a few minutes in, but I already resonate so much with what you are saying about "masking/camouflaging" not being a deliberate act and how your nervous system automatically responds to situations in order to feel safe. That gives me so much validation to hear a similar experience, so thank you so much for sharing ♥
I haven't finished the video yet, but I'm happy to see you and hope you're doing well.
I relate to so much you're saying.
Lovely to hear from you again Celeste ❤
Glad to see you back!
Wow! Your back! Let's go!
Thanks for sharing and best wishes with everything ❤
hey, lookit you! You look so handsome! thank you so much for your vids - you got what I got and I appreciate your thoughtful insights :)
