Overstimulation

Larissa

It's not as easy as, oh, I just get overstimulated by loud noises. It depends on how my day's gone, how my week's gone. Sometimes I can tolerate it, sometimes I absolutely can't. I have a threshold for how much I can tolerate and when that threshold is already over the top, then obviously that's when my overstimulation kicks in and I might have a meltdown.

  • Dear Larissa,

    Welcome to the online community, I am Olivia one of the community moderators. Thank you for sharing your experiences with the online community- I know a lot of our members have similar feelings about overwhelm and hopefully they can give some advice that might be helpful. 

    I have linked some of the NAS advice and guidance pages .I hope that some of them might be helpful for you to take a look at:

    Meltdowns

    Autism and sensory processing

    Best wishes,
