Self-care isn't laziness when your brain works differently. For autistic adults, basic tasks like showering, eating regularly, or maintaining routines can become overwhelming challenges.

Executive function differences, sensory sensitivities, decision fatigue, perfectionism, and internalized shame all play a role.
