    Hey @bignosegirly0, I’m so sorry to hear that you felt overstimulated because of the loud music in the car — it’s really difficult to find a moment of peace and quiet in that situation.

    Do you have any strategies that help you reduce overstimulation? For example, do you have noise cancelling headphones?

    ppl dont always need advice. sometimes all they rly need is a hand to hold. an ear to listen. and a heart to understand them. 🧸

    Hey @bignosegirly0 , thank you for sharing this. That sounds overwhelming, and its valid that you found that situation really over-stimulating. Each person will have different sensory limits, and that's okay.

    How are you feeling today?
