Q: Do bright lights bother you? Like the sun?
They really do, most of the time. I tend to always seek shade and wear sunglasses outside. I have even developed silent migraines at times from bright light. If I am outside too much, I can be vulnerable to developing hypomania or even mania. At night, I need my room to be as dark as possible to sleep well. I dislike flickering lights from the TV, laptop, or even my phone. My eyes are particularly sensitive at night. I had my husband install a special light dimmer switch in my bathroom so if I need to go there late at night, I need not put the lights on all of the way.

What is something you are sensitive to (physically)?
