Autism Behaviors - Autistic Meltdowns
Autism Behaviors - Autistic Meltdowns
The triggers of autism are different for each person, but sensory differences, changes in routine, anxiety, and communication difficulties are common triggers.
Autistic meltdowns and tantrums can seem similar at first glance. However, unlike the average temper tantrum, an autistic meltdown is bigger, more emotional, and more difficult to manage. A person with autism often experiences increased anxiety and distress during a meltdown.
One of the most frightening aspects of a meltdown is the extent to which the child loses control. Autistic people, as well as those who support them, can be distressed by meltdowns.
There is no set duration for meltdowns; they can last for minutes or hours.
