      Within physical bounds of course. Neurotypical people don’t notice a lot around them, because their brain filters grey noise out. And yes, it’s sometimes overwhelming.

        I’ve only recently realized just how much roads ruin things for me, it becomes absolutely impossible for me to hold a conversation anywhere near a running car.

        I could walk next to a highway with a neurotypical person and they just… don’t fucking notice? it’s so incredibly strange how they can just tune absolutely anything out and merrily ignore them while i’m unable to hear my own thoughts

          Don’t worry, neurotypicals live life on such an easy mode that they invent the most insane problems for themselves as some sort of handicap. It’s so frustrating watching them sometimes. “Wahh I don’t want to commit to my significant other! Wahh I’m bored so I think I’ll do some drugs! UGH my SO bought a $900 TV so I better buy something expensive too to get back at them!”
