2. Sensory: ridiculous auditory hypersensitivity, as well as a heightened intolerance for large groups of people packed in a single space (holiday shopping and riding the bus both make me seriously hate people)

3. Routine change: small day to day routine changes such as getting up later than usual or making a detour someplace on the way to the shops are okay, but bigger things like learning a new skill, meeting new people or any new situation where I don't know what to expect make me very anxious.


I'd like to add this to mine too.
