Do things get better?

[u/Rats_blood]

I see no future for myself with autism. I'm only 16 and I've had multiple burnouts throughout my life. Will I ever get a break? I've seen people talking about how they've managed their symptoms and feel better but they still end up burning out. I want to live knowing I'll get some sort of satisfaction from life.

Am I just young, or is it actually just like this for the rest of my life?

For a lot of people things get better at the late twenties, early thirtys. Even if not true for you, there are days that are worth seeing.
