Sensory Overload or Panic Attack? The Neurodivergent Adult's... by TG
Episode notes
We go one level deeper, into the machine under each alarm. Sensory overload is a processing bottleneck ,too many programs open until the system freezes. A panic attack is a fear surge that feeds on itself. The fix follows directly from the mechanism: less input for one, calmed fear for the other. You'll learn the cleanest felt test , "make it stop" versus "am I safe" ,and why reaching your limit sooner than others is a different threshold, not a defective one.
