This page or section is a stub. Perhaps you can help add something to it? 😊

When an autistic person gets overwhelmed or overstimulated, this may result in either a shutdown or meltdown.

To outside observers, autistics in shutdown may appear to be ignoring everyone else or unresponsive to the world.

Someone with personal experience/more knowledge could add more detail.
