It takes a little while for me to process information. The more stuff that's going on, the more anxious & overwhelmed I quickly become. That has been consistent for me, for 2 years now. I'll have a day or two (per month) that I feel pretty good. Normal. Once I'm back into chaos - normalcy in the average person - I quickly become depressed.

That's my experience, anyway.

ETA: Examples of what pushes me hard: more than one person talking at a time (even if it is the TV or music) - I turn it on mute or off. If I can't control all of the talking, I step back and silent. When there's a lot going on (for even a "normal" person), everything takes WAAAAY longer than normal. Weird, because my mind appears blank to me. But it has literally taken over an hour a few times to make simple decisions, and that was pushing myself to decide.
