Struggling

Hello. I’m feeling really low and overwhelmed at the moment. The  noise at home is making me feel unbelievably trapped - anytime I hear my mum talking my stomach flips and I feel this horrible sense of panic. I’m feeling really sick all the time. I can’t get away from it so that makes me feel even more trapped. I just need to talk to someone who understands. I feel incredibly alone and just knowing someone’s listening would help. I try to talk to my boyfriend but he can’t help me. And I don’t want to burden people it feels so awful to do that. Even the nicest people in the world would feel overwhelmed if someone was constantly calling them crying. Thanks Pray tone1

    Thank you for your post and sharing your experience. I'm really sorry to hear the problems you are experiencing with noise at home. It can be really difficult when feeling overwhelmed but always good to talk about it. 



    Here is a link to some information on anxiety, it has some useful advice and tips: Anxiety



    We also have advice and guidance on sensory differences and there is a section on sensory overload, I'll link that here: Autism and sensory processing



    I hope this helps,
