In fact, I was just thinking that David Helfgott, portrayed in the movie, Shine, may very well be an example of a person with high-level autism who's brain melted down.
I act sort of like him sometimes, and based on my experience with other (mis- or un-diagnosed) autistics I've known, to me, it makes perfect sense.
