A long time ago I made a 10+ audio drama with the Post-Meridian Radio Players (PMRP) called The Mask of Inanna - a modern reinterpretation to Old Time Radio. An old radio host is taken out of retirement to finish a show he never got to end - for mysterious reasons.

For a submission to the Dragon*Con Parsec Awards (which we won - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsec_Awards#2012 ), I made a 57 minute summary of the show.

I've never really made it public before but if 10+ hours is too long for you, this basically provides all the major character and plot beats:

Queer disabled family with a 4yo and baby just lost our only car to a coolant line break, blown head gasket. Repairs cost more than the car.

Pig week comes to a close. Soon, Pig Island will disappear into the mists, stealing away all the pigs from the world for another year until they can visit again.

Hey can you stop ringing that notification bell I'm trying to sleep

Do you periodically burn out?

I've just learned something while researching that could benefit you...

I was reading the work of autistic researcher Dora Raymaker.

She explained that the functioning of an autistic person running up to burnout can look like a "seneca cliff".

A seneca cliff is a model of a system which shows that growth or functioning is pretty good (even seeming to increase) and then, when decline comes, functioning falls off the cliff...at a rate much faster than growth.

It occurred to me that lots of people say to me "I was fine until I wasn't" or "I felt like I was actually ramping up or doing much more until I burnt out".

With this in mind, if it's hard for you to know when a burnout is coming (we can't always tell when we're in it), then you could reflect on whether or not you've been ramping up or putting in extra effort...this might indicate that a crash could be coming.

If this is helpful, pass the information on to your #autistic, #ADHD or #AuDHD friends and family.
