Autistic burn out is real, it's debilitating, it's draining and can creep up on me from what feels like nowhere, because I miss all the early warning signs.

Taking time out is hard for me. I don't recognise when I am tired, overwhelmed, or doing too much and I can't rest at home because there is always something to do.

I often over commit my energy to other things other than myself. Why? Because I find it hard to find the right balance. Do too little and I get bored, do too much and I feel pressured. All of this inevitably ends up in me getting burnt out.

Booking regular breaks is how I have learnt to overcome this. his means I have regular opportunities to be away from my daily demands, connect with nature and spend time looking after me.

Today skills group explored St Kilda.
It was a great day filled with card games, bird watching, and a picnic lunch.
We even survived the gross smell that hit us out of nowhere on the walk! (Check out the comments for pictures)

Today skills group played The Price is Right.
Each 'contestant' had to guess the price of a product and then the 'audience' would vote Higher, Lower or Same!
Some product prices really shocked the group and it was interesting to notice the difference in price depending on the brand name.
We then visited the local super market to find the best price on a few products.

Wrapping an exercise band around a chair has allowed these little feet to get the feedback they need and seek. Previously they would use my feet and legs to seek that same input.
