Restraint collapse is an emotional breakdown that occurs when individuals, especially those who are neurodivergent, suppress their emotions throughout the day and release them in a safe space. This phenomenon is often triggered by stress, sensory overload, and emotional suppression, and is commonly seen in autistic individuals who engage in masking. The article aims to provide caregivers, educators, and individuals with an understanding of restraint collapse, its causes, and strategies for support. Key strategies include creating safe spaces, offering emotional validation, encouraging healthy coping methods, and maintaining consistent routines. Empathy and understanding are essential in supporting emotional recovery and fostering resilience in individuals experiencing restraint collapse.
