(Love this from Maddox’s Autism Chronicles)

One example of sensory overload for Maddox involves large crowds. They visually overload him. All of the colors of clothing and movements etc… Whenever we go to Universal or Disney, if its very crowded, he will start getting “tired” or “irritable” (signs of overload) about every 1.5 to 2 hours. We take him somewhere quiet and let him decompress and then go back out in the parks.
