Sensory issues are a big part of ASD... bright lights, noise, textures etc.
I don’t really have any major problems. I can cope with going to the shops, I know some with ASD can find it hard.
I don’t like long sleeves, I always roll them up. Even with cardigans and jumpers (unless it’s cold and it’s warmer to have them not rolled). I am OK with things like dressing gowns as the sleeves are loose (plus they’re fluffy which is a bonus).
I also dislike tight clothing. The idea of a bodycon dress is alien to me, they look so tight and uncomfortable, how on Earth do people walk in them??
I dislike loud music eg in nightclubs but it’s easy to avoid those.
I don’t know if this is sensory or something else, but I never seem to feel very thirsty. I’ll want some water when I wake up, and maybe one or two drinks during the rest of the day. I have a habit of pouring myself a glass of water, drinking a bit then leaving it on a counter/table/etc. Whenever my family go out to dinner I can make one drink last all evening, it’s not often I want another one.
Just wondering what your thoughts were!
