Do you get overstimulated easily? And if so, what triggers it mostly?
(Unless you genuinely understand overstimulation and know if it happens to you please donāt answer as this topic can be sensitive)
- I get overstimulated by people chewing and certain tones of voices. If Iām anxious at all my clothes will make me feel trapped and anything touching my neck can make me cry.
The chewing thing is really annoying because I donāt want to tell anyone how to eat. So I sit alone to eat all the time. But itās funny I hate chewing sounds but watch 1 Mukbang youtuber every day all the time for comfort. So strangeFeb 13, 2022

Idk if this counts but someone in my class was making pop noises with their mouth and idk it was causing this agonizingly uncomfortable feeling inside. Same thing happened when someone was making squeaking noises with a chair and my uncomfort got to the point that it felt completely awful and I couldnāt take it.
I hope itās okay for me to reply like this even though Iām not even sure if this counts-

definitely heat, being the slightest bit too hot will make me just unreasonably irritated.
but when im already on the breaking point it can be everything, mostly itching and other skin sensations, sounds really can be awful too

I recently got glasses and literally just existing with them overstimulates me. I see every pebble, every speck of dust in my hair, every pore in my skin, every snowflake in the sky, every fucking vain in every leaf on every tree. It gives me severe headaches and just makes living even more unpleasant than it already is-

People moving around me (as in small gestures, hand movements, change of eye contact ect), it stresses me cause I take it as negative reaction towards me (it sounds weird badly explained like that but I promise itās not eerie) ; I had to get off the bus and leave my class two times this week because of this
