Sensitivity to external stimulus. There is a paranoid aspect with the disease perhaps this allows an open mind aka irrationality to false constructs of abstract realities. Illusions that fit primal delusions… There is no one in my head… There isn’t anyone listening
Take me off speaker. You’re psychotic.
Too much stimulus… Not psychic. Mental illness yes, what happens to tje beautiful mind of us.

I’m also autistic. I have a co-worker who hums and taps his pencil. I wish all the people who say I have poor impulse control would give me the credit I’m due for not having murdered him yet. I find it almost impossible to filter out distracting noises – they all come crashing into my consciousness. Everything, all the time.

I am extremely sensitive to my environment. It’s like my brain can’t filter out unnecessary noises and i have to hear everything, all trying to be at the front of my mind at the same time. I’m also sensitive about a lot of people being around. They don’t have to be doing anything specifically. Just being in a room with a lot of people overwhelms me.
I am very sensitive to light and noise.
Luckily at work I am allowed to wear noise cancelling earphones so I can concentrate better.
I don’t like unfamiliar environments too much either. If a place is too crowded you generally won’t find me anywhere near it unless I have no choice. Very stressful.
I can’t be in a crowd. One on one I’m better at.

God bless the co-worker who has an extra loud and long musical ring tone on their mobile phone. Especially if they like to leave it on their desk unattended a lot.

I’ve been diagnosed with Aspergers and sz/sza. I’m very sensitive to light and noise now but the meds dim my senses. Grass being cut used to be really strong. Sometimes I throw up when smoking. Before I got sick, I wouldn’t be around smoke. I would avoid it.
