It seemed really surreal to me so I asked about it, apparently they have hours for people on the spectrum to make it more comfortable for them. As far as I know, I’m not on the spectrum but this environment was soooooo calming. It was like being at a spa. Is this not something everyone enjoys or should I consider getting checked out for autism??
Hi I’m AuDHD (autism ADHD) it is not inherently autistic to find places like grocery stores discomforting, as they are meant to be discomforting, as your decision making is heavily reduced when you’re overstimulated, and thus customers buy more product, or the wrong product so they have to come back and buy more, etc.
I do get overstimulated and sometimes overwhelmed by grocery stores, yeah. If you have any questions about this, or autism, or ADHD, feel free to ask!
Have a great day and be kind! :D
