Thanks for getting back to me. I've been listening to some relaxing music on my ipod before bed. However, I keep falling asleep before the music ends and I fall asleep with them in my ear...is that weird?
I can relate, I've used many a "restrooms" to actually escape if something bothers me out in public. I just think of it as a place to "rest". Crowds can be really overwhelming even when i have my panic controlled at it's best...a restroom is always comforting to me!
The weather has been great as of late, I know that when the weather gets nicer even more people go out... but I take this opportunity to get outside and do yard work, work around the house....etc.
Has anyone ever tried like planning two escape routes? Like basically just taking note of two separate ways you could get out of the crowd if needed. This always seems to comfort me too, because I feel like I have control of that.
I just noticed your posts, not quite sure if I've seen you around much before. Welcome to the site and looking forward to hearing more from you in the future......
Thanks for this Samantha. Those are some really great and simple ideas. Sometime I'll notice that I have the tv on, a video playing on my computer, music on the radio in my bedroom. And I'll just stop and realize how noisy and stressed it's making me. I'll turn them all off and it's an immediate sigh of relief. Will try to keep my stimuli to a minimum as much as possible! Thanks for the reminder!
