Thank you so much for your reply!

1. I didn’t know that was possible! Does this mean I would be allowed a hidden disability lanyard too or is that going too far?
2. Ive got some reusable foam earplugs but recently I find myself taking them out…

I've noticed this to some degree too, specially at work. That could be more about being trapped in an environment. I don't know. I figured out myself that I have Asperger's. I am not diagnosed yet. For me that's a formality that gives me more power with…

I sympathise, although yours sounds even more extreme than mine.  I can't even bear bright colours, they hurt my eyes.

Thank you for suggesting earplugs. I do not really like them. I like more headphones.

Everything about festivals and music makes me uncomfortable and stresses me. I have not tried yet anything like stress balls or something similar but I will look into…
