It's been a long time since last posting, so it feels a bit weird to start a thread again, but perhaps someone can give me some tips with the following issue.

I have been pretty sensitive to things like lights, sound,touch etc from when I was young. Since a few years it became much harder for me to deal with those senses, to the point where I can't bear looking at things like brick walls, brick streets, or like a lot of small things in one spot.

(e.g. adult coloringbooks, stuff in a grocery store, tiles, letters,patterns on clothing, colored text and so on, the smaller/the more going on the more painful/overwhelming).

When I'm not too tired I can deal with it for a very little time only, and when I am tired it gets worse. I get overwhelmed to the point where it hurts to look at anything at all and I cannot think clearly. I have been diagnosed with a metabolic disease (glut 1-deficiency), and wonder if it might cause sensory issues.

If anyone's got some tips to make it easier to deal with this, it'd be welcome..
