How long does grief last with someone who’s autistic?

Like I know grief usually hit even normal people hard but when you’re not able to regulate your emotions how does it affect you on the spectrum. Can you ever actually recover

I got adhd so its similar. Yes you get over it. It takes a while. Some things take a few days/weeks like nerotypicals, but sometimes it takes longer. It’s like it is with normals but it just is stronger and when the memories come back as it does with normals but it’s just more intense but not as bad as when it first happened. Don’t let yourself fall into depression too. It’s very easy when your emotions hit you.
I hope this helps. Sometimes it helps to talk to someone about what happened. Good luck. Hang in there. Your not alone!
