Sensory Overload or Panic Attack? The Neurodivergent Adult's... by TG

Episode notes

Become a detective about your own surroundings. Sensory overload usually has an identifiable external trigger and often comes from stacked sensory and social load; panic often has no external trigger, or an internal one. We cover the tricky case of a panic attack that happens in a supermarket, the learned-fear pattern, and how to build a trigger map that turns "my episodes feel random" into a readable pattern — as Nadia discovered when her "random" episodes turned out to have a clear sensory fingerprint.
