Right now I'm waiting in a bus station and it smells awful, has neon lights, and voices echo everywhere. I'm feeling so overwhelmed, worried I'll get a migraine. I think I just figured out that my migraines are triggered when I can't accommodate my sensory needs as an autistic person. Anyone have a similar experience? I have Loops and those are helping. Blue blocking glasses are too expensive on top of the prisms I need for double vision. What can I do for smells? autismthreads

But I have severe emetophobia, and I've found that when I feel nauseous, it helps to smell some nail polish remover. I carry a small bottle with me in my bag. I'm also autistic, and I've never tried it for sensory overload, but it's sort of a reset to my system when I use it for nausea, so it might have the same affect.
