Lesson Overview

17.37 – When You’re Overwhelmed by Noise or Crowds: Loud environments can drain focus and trigger panic quickly. Overstimulation isn’t weakness—it’s your brain protecting itself. Identify your warning signs: tension, irritability, or zoning out. Create a plan to step away when sensory overload hits—visit the nurse, library, or hallway briefly. Bring sensory aids like earplugs or soft music to reduce intensity. Ask teachers for seating options near exits for quick escapes if needed. Afterward, re-ground using texture, temperature, or breathing techniques. Don’t apologize for your sensitivity—it’s simply a unique wiring. Understanding it helps you thrive instead of withdraw. Over time, exposure combined with control strengthens your confidence. You can navigate even noisy environments with structure and self-awareness guiding your steps.
