After two years in the new role, I had to face the reality that I was not recovering from burnout as I had hoped. My fiancé shared with me some information on neurodivergent burnout which totally resonated with us both. I raised this possibility with my psychologist, who appeared shocked at the suggestion, or perhaps the possibility. She agreed this was worth investigating and so began my diagnosis journey that is still in progress and has so far taken 12 months.
