Hi, I’m just wondering what/if others have had experiences going to the cinema to watch movies as an autistic adult? What sensory stuff do you put in place to be able to handle it? I’m desperate to go and see the new spider man movie, however I haven’t been to a cinema since I was a toddler (plus I have agoraphobia) and they don’t seem to be doing autism friendly screenings for this. So I was just curious if it was do able and if so what I should try and do. Thanks
I don't go to cinema anymore too loud and crowded for me. Instant recipe for anxiety attack so I just wait for stuff to come out on dvd so I can watch it at home.
That’s what I do, but I just feel as though I may be missing out on something by not seeing things when they come out.
