- 🥨 Snack + water isn’t optional - it’s sensory insurance.
- 🚪 Build a “leave without drama” exit: park close if possible, keep shoes/jacket easy, and use the agreed “done” signal.

Prepare before you goPractical supports
This is general information and not medical advice. If you're concerned about safety or health, check with your clinician.
Set the visit up for a win
- Preview the plan in one minute: where you're going, what you'll do first, and how you'll leave.
- Use a tiny visual plan (3 steps). Example: “arrive → do one thing → snack + go”.
- Agree on a “done” signal (card/hand sign/word) so leaving isn't a debate mid-overload.
Support gear (no shame, all strategy)
- Noise: headphones/ear defenders + a comfort sound or playlist.
- Light: hat/sunnies/tinted lenses + a “face away from lights” seat plan.
- Body: chewy/fidget + something heavy-worky (stretch band / push-the-wall game).
- Fuel: safe snack + water (hangry looks like overload).
If overwhelm hits
- Lower demands fast: fewer words, fewer questions, slower pace.
- Move to your “exit spot” (outside / car / quiet corner). Safety beats finishing the activity.
- Co-regulate: calm voice + simple choices (“outside or bathroom?”).
- After: recovery time counts. No post-mortem in the moment. Debrief later if needed.
