Episode #9 Sensory Over/Under Stimulation


Listen Later

In this episode, Caitlin and Teena discussed sensory overwhelm and underwhelm, shedding light on sensory sensitivities. They underscored that these variations are not a choice, can be disabling, and necessitate accommodations beyond noise-cancelling headphones! Teena and Caitlin stressed the importance of sensory stimulation for Autistic folks and ADHDers. They explored the understanding of sensory differences in Autism and ADHD, with a focus on personalised support and the lasting impact of sensory overwhelm. Furthermore, they delved into stimming as a means to meet sensory needs, advocating for the normalisation of such behaviours for self-expression.
