Hi. Im trying to decide if I have autism. Would this be considered a meltdown?
I once upset my dads gf, and I could not understand why. I tried telling her I didn't get why she was upset, but she kept pushing it and getting frustrated with me. I soon started bawling in front of her because I felt stuck and confused and didn't know how to end the conversation. I wasn't like 6 years old either, I was a 13 year old teenager breaking down crying in front of an adult because of something I had said. This "conversation" if you'd even call it that went on for about an hour. I eventually understood that she felt left out by something I had done after she explained it multiple times. I know meltdowns are common in people with autism, is this one? I just kinda broke out of confusion and frustration and misunderstanding and felt stuck in the situation.
