Ways to make public outings easier?

Eyates

Hi was wondering if anyone could put me in the right direction of maybe some glasses for sensory overload, and I would love to find a good way of making my hidden disabilities more public when it comes to using didsbility facilities when I'm able to thank you!

Was diagnosed early this year and I've still found it hard to figure things out to make stuff easier, I have headpgones whenever I go out which helps but I hate having to look down when I'm walking anywhere. Public transport I dislike the looks I get when others see me using accessible options for disabled people, any tips would be incredible!

  • Two solutions that take some practice, but once you get them, you'll be free again!

    1) Reading; taking a book you can't wai to get to the next chapter of on a train etc makes the journey a pleasure

    2) the most important; breathing. Slow, very slow, meditative breath work, once you can control this, you can make this your focus in any situation. This has taken me a loooong time to find, and I still practice and often fail, but calm, calm is our friend. Make calm your normal state and then not much can tip you out of that state

    Good luck
