Dealing With Stress In A Crowded Environment


Another challenge that I face with autism is dealing with being in large groups of people. I have noticed that when I am in a large group of people I tend to get overwhelmed. But the way I have remained calm in large crowded areas is by first recognizing my body's signals to stress. Then I will focus on my breathing which will help with reducing my stress levels. After doing this I will visualize how I feel in the environment that I am currently in. If this strategy doesn't work I will wear headphones and listen to music such as jazz or any genre that I like, and if this option is not available I will ask family member or very close friends of mine for “pressure” which is like a hug.

the importance of being straightforward when speaking

                        In a previous post of mine I spoke about the importance of concise speech in this post I will explain why I value being straight forward when I speak.

The next reason why I value straight forward communication is due to the fact that I have a difficult time with recognizing an individuals tone of voice which makes challenging for me to understand what message a person is trying to convey to me and same is said about social cues or body language. In conclusion the reason why I value straightforward communication is due to the fact that I have a difficult time with understanding what an individual is trying to discuss with me, the fact that i have a difficult time with recognizing social cues.

How I See People

                In my previous post I briefly discussed people and their part in how I see the world in this post I will describe how do I see people and why do I see them this way. The way that I see people is like I said before in my previous post titled "How I See The World" is that they are unpredictable and they could say or do any number of things whether it would be good or bad. Now normally in most circumstances I see people just as well people no color, no religion and not any different about them from me, and the reason why is due to the fact that people could have many differences on the outside but I still see them as a person regardless of their beliefs and their looks. As Martin Luther King Jr. once said "I live to see a day where we are not judged by our color or creed but by our character" that phrase is what I live by and what I use to help me see people as such. Therefore the way that I see people is as individuals that are ...
