Bright sunshine

Billy87

I have always found myself gettting badly effected by bright sunshine. I never understood why before I knew I was autistic but when the sun gets really bright it causes me to have a real crash and sometimes sink into a depression. I realised yesterday this is cos of the sensory overload I get from the really bright sun when Im out. Its not so bad at home cos I can draw the curtains if I need to

Does anyone else get this and if so have you any tips for dealing with it? I dont usually wear sunglasses but Im wondering if that might help

I think because my burnout is worse after a busy week things are affecting me more at the moment

  • I used to self medicate with cannabis in my youth I didn't realise that's what I was doing until much later of course. But during summer I get terrible migraines that start in the back of my eyes, I have one now after going cycling yesterday without my sunglasses on.

    So I think the anti inflammatory effect of cannabis may have actually really helped me in those summers years ago. I might have to try CBD and see if that helps me at all
