  1. We had a great family day out at Disneyland Hong Kong! 🏰

    Our niece loved going on the rides, and our nephew enjoyed building his lightsaber and hanging out with his buddy (my cousin's son), but it was a lot for the senses. Large crowds, stifling heat and humidity, bright lights, loud and competing noises, strong smells from the plethora of eateries, and constantly being moved in every direction led to a feeling of being overwhelmed. I was exhausted by the end of the day and need some downtime to recover from it all! Creating special memories with family made it worthwhile, though 😊

  11. Children with ADHD are 3x more likely to experience sensory overload than neurotypical peers.

    It's not being dramatic.

    It's a nervous system processing everything at once, at full intensity.

  16. If the grocery store leaves you exhausted, it’s not just in your head. Sensory overload is real. Wearing earplugs or headphones in public changed the game for my energy levels. 🎧 #SensoryOverload #BipolarHacks #MentalHealth

  21. Sensory overload strikes ADHD and Autistic brains equally.

    When the brain fails to filter input, a loud room or a scratchy tag stops being a minor annoyance. It morphs into physical pain. The experience drains your energy.

  30. “Helpful” gadgets or informational signs tend to drive me nuts.
    The visual clutter of a “Dirty/Clean” stick-on sign for your dishwasher I find nigh unbearable on both a visual (it ruins the smooth polished surface of the appliance) & intellectual (if in doubt, open the door and Look!) basis. #sensoryoverload #rant

  35. I found out about my neurodivergence only a year ago. A massive reality check.

    I'm realizing I have almost zero social skills - just manual protocols.
    Email is my asynchronous heaven.
    Pure data, no pressure.

    But 1-1/group meetings... Sensory torture. Calculating facial expressions and body language feels like a manual social engineering project that drains my "inner battery".
    While others "sync up", my brain overloads just to look functional.

    This is why Mastodon is my safe space - I can be myself here. I'm like at home here.

    Have you noticed anything similar?

    You're not alone.
    You're normal! It's just harder, and you pay a much higher price for it.
