Work has always been an issue for me, too. Travelling tires me out, and chit chat tires me out. In my wonderful library job, I used to sneak off for a nap in the spiritual corner or the wellbeing zone. If they were taken I would find a desk to lie underneath and sleep. I felt like I was being naughty, but now I realise I was just coping with autistic burnout. MORE NAPPING ZONES PLEASE. I’m lucky to have the writing skill or I’d be in trouble as there are so many things I find difficult/impossible.
