Hi guys,
I’m just wondering if anyone has any advice on what to do when you realise you are in sensory overload (especially with friends or in public). Also, does anyone have any advice on how to prevent becoming sensorily overloaded or how to recognise the triggers? Thank you so much in advance.
Sincerely,
Someone who really struggles with sensory overload
The toilet trick is one i use most. Luckily I tend to feel it building up in social situations so I have time to make my excuses and go to the loo. I've also started humming a song or tune just in my head which helps if its not too overstimulating
Toilet - absolutely! Done that more times than I could ever count.
