Your tolerance to stress

Just curious as to whether other peoples tolerances to stress have improved as they’ve gotten older, or got worse. I feel mines got worse. I’m also a lot less tolerant with things. Simple things seem to stress me out more than when I was younger. What’s everyone’s else’s experience with stress tolerance?

  • Yes, I’m more intolerant now that I’m older. I am thinking in particular of being in the presence of young children and going to events that might require socialising. I am finding these things more stressful now, but from what I read, feeling that way when you get older can be common for some non-autistic people too.
