Sensitivity

Char1992

Hi all,

I would just like to ask a question to anyone with AS,

Does anyone else suffer with sensitivity to artificial light? By artificial I mean light that doesnt come from the sky or sun! Especially the yellowy lights. (Am strangely fine around white coloured artificial lighting.

It seems to make me feel anxious at times and if I get anxious around this type of light I see the light becoming brighter until the anxiety has worn off.

  • Hi all,

    Glad to hear others are in the same boat as me with the fluoresent lighting and I wish there was a way of it not affecting us, what is it about those lights!

    It does seem to cause anxiety its weird, not sure about anyone else but I find I am fine around the white coloured lights, they are the best, but definetely supermarkets and stuff they have horrible lights, and street lights and buses.

    Is it just something that affects people with AS I wonder? because most people seem to be fine around the lighting, not get affected in any way and most of the time seem to completely be unaware of any significance of the yellowy intenseness!!!!
