I have something different, but similar. According to my neuropsychologist I have "information processing issues", which basically means that my ability to process information, including sensory stimuli, is limited. For example, I still read at a sixth grade speed. My comprehension isn't affected, just my speed. I can't do anything fast. I can't multitask. In certain situations I am in total sensory overload. I can't stand being in a room full of people socializing. It wears me out. I can't converse, and avoid people. Coffee hour" is the worst. I'm fine in very small groups, or one on one. Shopping malls wear me out. I'm a musician of sorts, and some playing or performing situations are too much, and my brain shuts down and goes on autopilot. There's too many things going on for me follow. I can't block things out. Loud restaurants are very stressful. For the most part I just want peace and quiet. I need lots of order to feel comfortable. I have some mild OCD tendencies, but I think a lot of it is just trying to put things in order so I can keep track of what's going on. I was never good at sports, but better at individual activities where I could focus and take in what was going on. In middle school my hand coordination tested as undeveloped for my age. I learned to play several instruments at a fairly advanced level, but physically controlling the instrument has always been a challenge. I am also very sensitive to my environment. When there's too much going on I get stressed.
