What I’m noticing so far is that I’m a lot more either sensory sensitive, or low registration, than sensory seek or avoid. This seems inline with my therapist’s suggestion that if I’m those first two, and not actively using strategies to manage sensory input, then life becomes stressful and unenjoyable.
We noticed that I hadn’t recorded much proprioceptive content. There were a few vestibular things I picked up on, such as being very nerve-y on stairs, struggling to balance, and swaying when sitting. The first of those, I had thought was linked to a trauma, but I suppose now it may not be. We also noticed a few items suggesting visual sensivity.
Going forward, she’s encouraged me to focus on sense each day to capture more detail, and to hopefully with that focus notice more things involving that sense that happen each day.
