How do you all cope with overwhelm

When over whelmed what do you all find helps for me it's my sensory light also if it's too loud my ear defenders bit tjey add to my sensory issues during summer due to hear and I don't like ear plugs as I hate how things feel shoved down my ear 

I have three overlays for my sensory light dinosaurs, fish and my one I'm using now which is Moon's and stars

  • At home, i sit in the pitch black in my cinema room, with a cup of tea…or i’ll get in my sleeping bag, pull the hood over and just hide. If i’m at work, i’ll go to the toilets and pull my cardigan over my head so it’s dark. I do like using my tramp lamp though (a flickering flame lantern) with wind and rain sounds playing…again, with a cup of tea.
