Sensory Overload Simulation - What is it like to be extremely sensitive in daily situations?

Sensory Overload - What it is like to be extremely sensitive in daily situations
This was a video that we created to simulate what people with autism or other sensory issues go through on a daily basis. We also used this video in addition to a dark room with physical effects such as vibrations, flashing lights, and even the wind blowing from the A/C in the car. The physical simulation was held at the Anchor of Hope festival in Forsyth, GA.

    They need to show how loud it sounds when other people are chewing and chewing and breathing hard and clanking their utinsils and clanking their utinsils on their bowls and plates and sloppily schrarffing down their food.

    Lmaoooo everyone in the comments misunderstanding the point. If you simply can hear or are sensitive to light it’s not what they mean. The point is to show people how highly intense, distracting, debilitating, and stressful this can be to someone who deals with it. The slow motion part might seem confusing but it’s probably not exactly direct for each person who experiences this, it’s to represent the mental distress of being hyper sensitive. The video is to help paint a picture not to accurately account for someone who has this disability. It’s not about hearing small noises or being disoriented by bright lights, it’s about the overwhelming continuous and anxiety inducing sensitivity to regular sounds/lights/sensory information. Everyone gets irritated by certain noises, or colours or intensities of light, don’t webmd atypical or autism descriptions and self diagnose after slightly relating to the perception of the video. When did mental health awareness become a platform for people slightly abnormal to claim complete uniqueness and atypical functionings?

    As a kid I HATED birthday parties with balloons because the sound of them popping still startles me so badly. I remember in gym class they'd fire some kind of air gun at the track before a race and I held my ears. My Mom would put the dishes & pots & pans away so loudly I'd jump and she'd always say I was so sensitive and laugh at me. The sun in my eyes is literally painful, I wear sunglasses all the time outside. I love cloudy days. I can't stand extremes in temps. Loathe hot or freezing cold weather. If someone sneezes or coughs loudly all of a sudden I nearly jump out of my seat. It's only gotten worse with age. Ambulances drive me crazy. I have to have white noise (air cleaner/fan) in my bedroom. I can't stand rooms with no moving air. People have always made fun of me for being this way. I was told by a psychologist a few years ago that she thought I was slightly autistic. I was glad to find out that might be the cause. I'm 44 now and finally finding out why I'm so sensitive. I told my sister what the psychologist said and my sister said I'd believe anything anyone told me. I don't get any family support on this. My Dad laughs at me when I say how much the sun and heat bother me. They just do NOT understand. I also have OCD, panic disorder & depression. When I get startled I feel nervous for hours afterwards. It's like the settings in my brain are set too high. People don't understand that you can't control it. Klonopin has helped me TREMENDOUSLY since 2005 and all of a sudden with all this DEA opiate crap going on I'm not only being ripped off 8 years of pain meds for multiple, horrifically painful conditions. They are also taking my Klonopin away for no reason at all. It's allowed me to leave the house but my Dr. "Doesn't like benzos"...so I'm buckling in for a roller coaster ride into hell for cold turkey withdrawal and then NOTHING to help my pain & anxiety. Fucking nightmare.

I often feel that people are rude and don’t think about others (me). I’m ALWAYS thinking about others and their reactions to how THEY would react if I ate with my mouth open, snapped my gum, coughed without covering my mouth, smacked lips while eating and etc.... I feel like it’s common curtesy to not be rude and to think of others around you at all times. Does that make me crazy? I get a burning anger inside me ~ I don’t act all strange and lash out with autistic type of behaviors but believe me.... there are times I’d like to!!!

There's times I'm in my room and because it's so silent compared to everywhere else, my ears start ringing and I feel irritable. This is why I always have my fan going.

    That's not exactly right. Tinnitus is a constant ringing. It never goes away. Sometimes it is louder than other times, but loud noises makes it worse and makes you ears more sensitive to things like clapping next to you. If the ringing comes and goes, it is something else. For me, it sounds like cricket noises mixed with the sound of tapping metal on a champagne glass, except the noise is steady and unbroken.

    The Gauntlet Yep, me & my grandmother the same. She could hear a faint sound on her back porch while in the front of her house, with music playing near her. She always apologized to me cuz I inherited thus stuff from her partly. She had great music appreciation, perfect pitch, & an insanely perfect & accurate color sense though, as one might expect. I can't tune out ANY sound most of the time, ever. It's exhausting. The quietness everyone else hears feels invasively mean & constantly super noisy to me. I adore being in a cave or primitive car tunnel in the forest, all my life. I long to build myself an earth-bag house with a yard around of old deep pine needles & green mosses on the ground 😀😀😀👍

    SammieGirl Beauty funy thing is that I have always thought that everything I did or felt was normal. Like the bouncing or hand flapping. Like if kids bounce when happy and clap when happy too, how is flapping not a topical human thing? Like literitly everyone flaps when they freak with excitement or bounce. And stretching relaxes your muscles but I never thought it was an autisum thing. Geting upseat with noises, I thought that was normal too becuase people find noises annoying and maybe even disturbing like chewing gum. When some one chews tip loudly, I hate it so bad When I cover my ears becuase I hate it, but people hate it too so I don't know how people would call it an autisum thing when it happens to every one. This is the reason my mom treats me like a normal kid with no disability becuase she sees me as normal but rather different. Mostly with my learning and speech and town I amnobsessedbwith only 3 pares of cloths.

Seeing a daily routine done by someone else's eyes?" he said "so it looks normal to you, and sounds don't bother you at all?" I responded "they even didn't capture the majority of them". Then he took me to a specialist and that's how I knew I have autism(No one diagnoses me until now). Thanks to this video.Well I still can't believe. This explains a lot of things.*

    Pretty inaccurate tbh. You don't "trip out" and it's not all in slow motion. Everything just feels super loud too the point where it annoys you. The talking feels like yelling and the yelling is basically a tipping point. Also the part whete your vision in the video goes weird like a tv. If you're hallucinating that's a whole different mental thing you should get checked.

I can tell you it is hell having a Sensory Processing Disorder which is part of the Autism Spectrum. But I've seen perfectly normal people who is overwhelmed by noise.

  • @JooceGooseGames
    @JooceGooseGames5 жыл бұрын

    I find that my overstimulation and meltdowns are different from the type you have shown. Rather than have strange vision, I just become extremely hostile and sensitive to sounds. Of course, I'm always extremely sensitive to sounds and light, and am very particular about the way things are done. If it isn't right, I will do it over and over again until it feels right. It isn't "just being perfectionist", it bothers me and makes me feel really angry or upset. As for light, I hate the dark and extreme lighting (although, "extreme lighting" to me seems to be normal for my neurotypical friends). Noises are a big big issue. That ringing that is constantly heard throughout the video? I hear it often in quiet or stressful environments. In fact, I hear it even now as I am writing this [1:04 am, my family is all asleep and my cats are sleeping next to me to keep me safe]. It's there, it's inside of my head, it makes me feel frightened because it's *in* there. I know my friends can't hear it usually but it upsets me that I hear it every day. Textures, too. I hate different textures. Leather is awful, especially when one leather item touches another leather item. It isn't the sound, it's the way they both catch on each other and don't move easily. They become stuck together and its difficult to move. It makes me feel very uncomfortable. I only ever wear things I've been able to feel properly before buying because of the way it feels, much like a lot of people do. But it makes me angry when things feel bad against my skin, it's just gross and I feel like throwing it and burning it. Almost as if all of my internalised rage comes out towards it. I count things. I count stairs when walking up or down, I count how many times liquid passes my lips when I drink. I even make silly hand gestures and touch each fingertip against my thumb up to 20 times each, counting up to four every time. I do a similar thing with my mouth - I clench my jaw on each side up to 20 times, counting up to 4 or 5 every time I do each action. I like things to be counted, it's a safe feeling. I hate leaving my laces in my shoes the way they were tied when I bought them. I have to take the laces out and put them back in, going under then over, rather than over then under. Whenever I take my shoes off, I need to tie them again and I don't even know why I do it. Why bother tying them if I'm going to just put them back on again? The sound is getting worse, louder [It is now 1:14 am]. It sounds like an aeroplane flying but its inside my head. I feel like I should also mention that I *hate* when people assume that autistic people are excellent at maths. I hate maths and struggle with it immensely, yet my other autistic friends are very good with maths. Whereas, I'm brilliant with English (top of my class, not to brag or anything) but my friends? Not so much. Another stereotype is photographic memory. Not all autistic people have a photographic (or just generally brilliant) memory, or anywhere near as good as that. I can barely remember where I left my glasses yesterday but I can remember useless facts about shows I used to watch as a kid. I forget the conversation I'm having when talking to my friends and break down and cry when I can't remember things I'm supposed to. I also hate, "it's a mental illness/disability" because it isn't. It's a *neurological condition* it's just the way something is. You contract/develop diseases. A condition is purely the state of something. It doesn't need a cure, only a little bit of patience and support from people. It's nice - for me at least, I don't know about anyone else - to see this video because it's like seeing another person's experiences with autism and sensory overload/overstimulation. Sorry if this was long or boring, I just thought I'd share my experiences and, in return, get to read some of yours (everyone, if you want to share, that is)

    Thunder never really affected me, but that was because where I live it rarely thunders and when it does it's usually very quiet, one time I experienced a REAL thunder storm, and it was so loud I felt like my whole world went white and I went into an anxiety attack. No one else was affected by it

    Library part is so accurate for me. I can't filter out the surrendings when looking at someone so I'm always looking at the ground or something to concentrate on their voice. When I'm talking to someone if something is too bright or cluttered I stumble over my words and forget my train of thought. Cleaning and organizing is a huge struggle. I get the auditory stuff too. I hear all the background noises and loud sudden noises freak me out. I just found out this isn't normal and the cause of my anxiety. Now I have some clue how to fix my home to make it easier for me though it's starting to get a little better.

    This is fairly dramatized. However, I do always hear my heartbeat when I sit down or I am not moving (and sometimes when I am) and it does affect vision too every time it pumps. Light sensitivity is absolutely horrible as well. Every noise or feeling distracts your attention. Absolutely the worst thing, but you get used to it and it becomes normal... you just need experience (so the older you get the better tbh).

    I had massive problems with loud sounds when I was little, I wanna say in kindergarten. I was terrified of loud sounds and constantly had to wear headphones or else, I would have an emotional breakdown because the sound would upset me. Nowadays, sound doesn’t bother me, but I do have this constant ringing in my ears, especially in my right ear. It’s normally not too noticeable, but it is really bad when it’s quiet. Am I normal? Well no, obviously, but I hope it’s not anything severe.

I couldn’t imagine living like this every day.

    This is literally what happens to me Every day. I kind of get heightened if there is an animal that makes a loud noise like a dog and I hate them because they are triggering to me. If they are just there and they are quiet, it feels like something is about to happen and I just hate it. I had one outside my door and I had to go into the other room and play music really loud just to get the horrible suspense away because there has to be something that can break the silence so I don't get so heightened. Then if it does make a noise, I just jump and my lips shake. Then I just feel so on edge and feel as though something is about to jump out at me. Also my hands sweat and my ears ring sometimes. I just want to cry and move away but I feel as though I am paralysed and in shock. I say things that don't make sense and want to just be left alone. I am very embarrassed about this but perhaps if I just shake myself out of it if it is not so bad or if I feel like I want to cry, I should just cry. Perhaps it would help hopefully. I am in a heightened state at the minute and my stomach feels weird. I just kind of need some help as I don't know what to do. Surely, someone else must have this too.

    If you suffer from any of this, I recommend headphones or earplugs for the noise. I often use them to cancel out noises that put my nerves on end (such as crowds in malls, keyboard tappings, or any sort of confined noise). For lightening, such as overhead lightening in an office, etc., offset by a local light. If I have to work in the office that's what I do.

    It's a form of synesthesia, which is a common condition among those with autism, ADHD, cerebral palsy, and some other conditions that I can't think of at the moment. Synesthesia is often referred to as a"cross-wiring" of the senses. Stimulus in one sense causes stimulus in another, so hearing certain sounds may produce color, or certain letters/numbers may be associated with color. The type you're talking about is called motion-sound synesthesia. I also have it and it can make a busy and loud environment seem even louder. Most types of synesthesia aren't negative, and are often seen as beneficial, but, unfortunately, that is not the case with this type with me. I hope this helped.

    To people saying that they get ringing in their ears all the time and they thought it was normal, it’s not just the ringing. Hearing so many noises overlapping causes a panic response, as well as increased heart rate, breathing, and in some cases an anxiety attack.
