Just all the noise, fuss, fake smiles. Inside my head I'm screaming for darkness and quiet. Never realised before why I felt this
Anyone else know what I mean?
Second day from hell. Dodgy PA system with varying levels of sound, blasting Christmas music.
Trouble is I kept working through it, trying to at least. Exhausted by the end of the day.
What do others do when the have sensory meltdowns? I stop, sometimes rock, grind my teeth. I should really have gone home but didn’t.
Dark room, earphones, Doctor Who soundtrack on repeat, sometimes accompanied by a long session on the exercise bike, again in the dark!
I carry those little foam earplugs all the time - nice to be able to lower the noise levels when it gets too much.
