Shutdowns and Stress in Autism - What is a shutdown? A shutdown is a
particular sequence of behavior which we observed in a child diagnosed as
high-functioning within the autistic spectrum. In academic settings when
pressured by an adult to perform tasks that were difficult, she became
unresponsive, sleepy, immobile, and limp to the touch for several minutes,
and then fell asleep in a chair for as briefly as 10 min. and up to 2
hours. These “shutdown” (SD) states were always triggered by social stress
of a certain kind and they became more severe and frequent over a period
of about a year. Do shutdowns worsen the symptoms of autism ? By Ingrid
M. Loos Miller and Hendricus G. Loos - This article is written for
