Hi all,
According to the DOES(Depth of Processing, Overstimulation, Emotional Reactivity, Sensing the subtle) framework of Highly Sensitive Person,
Overstimulation is an effect of the Depth of Processing. We all get overstimulated due to multiple reasons like an event, people, sound, smell, or any other experience.
I have learned 5 different ways to handle the effects of overstimulation.
All these tips are working on the effects of overstimulation. Although we can work on the effects of the Cause, it's equally important to understand the causes and work on them. I'll add them in the next post.
I hope this helps you when you are overstimulated. Please add to this list if you know other ways that can help fellow HSPs.
