Sensory sensitivities

  • I often don't like it when someone stands very close to me
  • I often get itching or irritation from the seams of stockings and labels in clothing
  • I have a great need for (personal) freedom of movement, both for my feelings and for my physical body
  • my solution(s):

    • I make sure I don't have more than two appointments on one day

    • I make sure that I can do something to relax after an appointment

    • I take a break as often as possible (and set an alarm for this so I don't forget)

    • I feel both feet firmly on the ground as often as possible (and do an exercise if necessary)

    • I wear bamboo socks, which are nice and soft and have almost no seams

    • I do exercises for relaxation

    • whenever it is necessary for me to be in a busy environment:

      • I know where the exit is

      • I know where the toilet is

      • I know where there is a tap to rinse my wrists with cold water

 

More about this symptom is to be found in my book for (young) adults

'Find your way with an extra X'

and as a little more easy story in my book

'Step forward with  an extra X'
