Helloo,
Sorry to bother people with this, but I was just wondering if anybody is able to help at all here please.
If I'm using sensory aids, whether ear defenders, sunglasses outdoor/indoor, or any other support that helps to keep me calm, is it wrong for someone to ask that I don't do it / comment on it because it makes them uncomfortable? Or should I be compromising so that they feel they're heard /that there needs are met? So much attention was drawn to me wearing sunglasses indoors to help myself and although I wouldn't usually, I've messaged the person to say how it made me feel, whilst still reminding them I love them and they have seen the message from days ago and not replied. I don't know if it's years of the false 'I'm too much' message that has made this hurt so much, or because I thought I was in a safe space, but I cannot seem to rationalise anything in my mind/ really understand.
Thank you in advance and sending light to you all
just tell them you are blind and watch them recoil in horror at sounding like a douchebag to a blind person lolor you could say that their entire outfit disturbs you and you demand they they strip off right there and once they strip off youd be glad to take your glasses off.
This is wonderful advice. I'm not sure I'll be asking anyone to strip anytime soon, but I very much appreciate your reply and the laughter that came with  Thank you very much!
