"Just like muscles, the brain has limits. It does not get stronger from endless strain. Real growth comes from the right balance of challenge and recovery.

When the brain is pushed for too long without a break – whether that means long work hours, staying locked onto the same task or making nonstop decisions under pressure – performance starts to slip. Focus fades. Mistakes increase."

I'm interested in reading studies about how #covid infections affect young #children & #teenagers with #autism.

Especially on how multiple infections can affect #autistic #neurology.
