Work

NAS89711

Hi, I’m really struggling with sensory overload at work, it makes me rundown and I’m frequently catching any virus that’s going and my executive functioning also gets severely affected as well as my ability to string a sentence together,  I’m a carer and a mother with no support- I love this part of my life that’s not an issue, my issue is work, I cannot afford to not work, I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions? Thank you

  • Thank you for sharing with us. I'm sorry your having such a tough time with work. I don't have much advice, but compeltley empathise. I too find myself exhausted after work (usually after just the first half of the day) just from talking and suffering constant loud noise and having to mask. My only suggestion would be to maybe consider a different role or workplace, hopefully one that is more understanding of autistic needs, but I know this is much easier said than done.

    I hope you find some more support. 

    Take care.
