MichelaThis image represents sensory overload.<br> The chaos, the saturation, the desperate need to decompress.<br> I tried to capture this in a poetic way —<br> from a neurodivergent perspective.<br> <br> You’ll find the full piece in the comments..<br> <br> Grazie 🦔<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sensoryoverload?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sensoryoverload</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/neurodivergent?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#neurodivergent</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/autism?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#autism</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/asperger?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#asperger</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/emotions?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#emotions</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/neuroscience?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#neuroscience</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/blog?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#blog</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/michiyospace?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#michiyospace</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/pensieroperimmagini?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pensieroperimmagini</a>

Tattie<p>Bus is a sensory nightmare. About five loud conversations going on at once, and two kids playing competing, tinny music on their mobiles.</p><p>I think for a moment I might want to start wearing noise-cancelling headphones to avoid <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Autistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Autistic</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/SensoryOverload" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SensoryOverload</span></a>. And then I dismiss the thought, as I always have. </p><p>Why? Honestly, because whenever I consider it, my gut feeling tells me I don't feel safe without being able to listen to my surroundings for the sounds of someone trying to creep up on me or whisper about me.<br><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/cPTSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cPTSD</span></a></p>
Robot Diver<p>Sometimes I forget that most people don't have serious anxiety about the sensory overload of having a shower. I spent years trying to find exactly the right smells and products to make things less overwhelming, and less allergic and then would not change them for years, and then had a meltdown when I couldn't get them anymore. Same with laundry products. I think that's been a thing I've done for years. Find the thing that makes me look and feel the most "normal" when perceived by others and then never change it. I think that was even the case with my gender for years.</p><p>Do I have issues with this? No because I have A,B&amp;C. - but if I didn't I'd be a ball of human in the closet in tears. </p><p>Good lord I hate being wet and the feeling of water evaporating on my skin, but simultaneously, I love to swim, I just hate getting out. I would stay in until I was a hypothermic grape just to not have to get out and feel my wet hair and skin. </p><p>These days i couple my shower anxiety with mecfs exhaustion and it feels like a serious internal battle most of the time, but I managed to have one today. It took three hours to get the volition, but I'm clean and uncomfortable. I would blow dry my hair if I could take the sound. </p><p><a href="https://starlite.rodeo/tags/audhd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>audhd</span></a> <a href="https://starlite.rodeo/tags/autism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>autism</span></a> <a href="https://starlite.rodeo/tags/sensoryOverload" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sensoryOverload</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/actuallyautistic" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>actuallyautistic</span></a></span></p>
Lanie Carmelo<p>Hello friends! 😊 How's everyone doing today? I'm taking it easy and working from the recliner in our living room due to some pain and inflammation in my feet. Elevating them seems to be helping. They still hurt a little, but I can finally move my toes without excruciating pain! 🙌</p><p>I've been dealing with some weird inflammation in different parts of my body, and my feet are just the latest and worst spot. My stepdad headed off to the grocery store a little while ago, and the only downside to being in the living room is the dogs barking when he returns. I'm all tensed up expecting them to bark at any time. Might just go ahead and put on my headphones to avoid the overstimulation. 🎧</p><p>I'm about to dive into lesson 15 of my <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/BrailleProofreading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BrailleProofreading</span></a> course, and I also plan to fit in some <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/Coding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Coding</span></a> practice with <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/Codecademy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Codecademy</span></a>.

Immediately after I get up isn't too bad as I have a set routine, but then once that routine ends I tend to get very anxious and feel a lot of sensory overwhelm until I'm fully awake. Does anyone have any tips on managing that? <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/autism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>autism</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/neurodivergent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neurodivergent</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/sensoryoverload" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sensoryoverload</span></a></p>
Linh Pham<p>Me: Complaining about fireworks and other random loud sounds. </p><p>Normies: Put on noise canceling headphones or earbuds!</p><p>Me: I can't have them on for a long period of time without the pressure causing pain and discomfort. </p><p>Normies: But, I know you go to shows and sporting events? What gives?</p><p>Me: I can usually prepare for those and there is a noise floor that I can slowly adapt to. Even then, unexpected loud sounds still cause sensory overload. </p><p>Also, my energy levels and social battery get zapped over time and I still get burned out. Burn out means that my ability to brace for and react to overstimulation fades even faster. </p><p>Normies: Whatever weirdo. </p><p><a href="https://linh.social/tags/NeuroDivergent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NeuroDivergent</span></a> <a href="https://linh.social/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ActuallyAutistic</span></a> <a href="https://linh.social/tags/SensoryOverload" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SensoryOverload</span></a></p>

Kay Ohtie 🔜 FWA<p>Anyone used the Loops Switch who can compare it to their normal offerings? What about first versus second gen in the main ones?

David Somers<p>We need to talk about rate limiting. If somebody posts a huge number of posts within a short period (say, 50 posts over a 3 hour period) this is one heck of a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SensoryOverload" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SensoryOverload</span></a> for me. Sometimes there may be good reasons for a huge burst of posts (a contemporaneous event or long post being split into many micro posts. Notwithstanding, it is overload for me.</p><p>I wonder if there would be a way for <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@MonaApp" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>MonaApp</span></a></span> to somehow apply an auto-mute when somebody is burst posting?</p>
