Minor headache from stopping reading mid-sentence

Post Reply New Topic

I haven't really heard or seen anything related to this, but relatively recently I develop a minor headache, or like a hard nagging in the back of my mind, when I'm reading something, newspaper, magazine, novel, cereal box, back of a shampoo bottle, and I stop in the middle of a sentence. I have to return to the material and complete it or else I'll feel kind of guilty and my head will ache a bit for a couple of minutes after. And if I can continue reading the material, I always do.

Has anybody else experienced this?

Thanks for reading, I'm new here.

Well, I'm not really sure what you're asking..... Are you saying that the reading CAUSES the headache, and that's what makes you have to STOP reading? If that's what you mean, it might be "sensory overload". Might there be too many details, in what you're reading? If that's what you mean, I've totally experienced that, as well----I think one could say "it" is quite "normal", for an Aspie (sensory overload, that is).
