Hello, I don't suffer from meltdowns as much as shutdowns. I shut down like a big ass generator: all the lights go off, all the doors lock shut, all the life in me vacates. Literally my eyes have no life in them.

Obviously, it sucks. For me and for everyone around me. But I don't know what to do.

It can go on for days, sometimes weeks. Then I come back to life. Sometimes I only shutdown with one person and I'm fine-ish with others (partly masking).

Any tips or advice?

Thank you xo
