Sound effects and music have been removed from this video which explores Meltdowns, shutdowns and burnout, from the perspective of an autistic person with dissociative identity disorder. People who are not triggered by loud noises should watch our original version of this video - the sound effects are intended to enable people to experience how difficult we find the world.
We explore what meltdown, shutdown and burnout are, why are they happen and things we find helpful when we experience the states.
