Agreed. I have always been sensitive, whether to criticism, stress, lighting or even sound, but never had this bad a reaction to any of them (usually it just annoys or irritates me slightly). I don't think my sensitivity is what triggers these episodes, which is why I hope my therapist and I can work things out.
Happy new year!
Thanks for this!
