Neurodivergent Scripts for Burnout | What to Say to Your Boss, Family & GP

Description

Finding the words is hard. Finding them while burnt out is nearly impossible. So here are the words, pre-written.

This is a copy-and-adapt script pack for autistic, ADHD and AuDHD adults, made by an autistic ADHDer. Every script comes in a softer version and a firmer version, so you can match the day and the person.

Inside:

• Telling your boss you are struggling, without disclosing your diagnosis
• Requesting a specific accommodation: flexible hours, written instructions, a quiet space
• Saying no to extra work
• Cancelling plans without the guilt spiral
• Explaining burnout to a partner or family
• Asking your GP or psychologist for support
• A low-capacity communication kit: auto-reply, one-line texts, and the meeting dodge

Fillable, so you can rewrite each one in words that sound like you. Print or type.

These scripts are the reason I built Workable, a free app that helps neurodivergent workers request accommodations. Your purchase helps keep it free.
