I'm still learning how sensitive I am (in my sixties, late self dx #ActuallyAutistic). A "small" thing happens, I'm nonverbal in shock and panic, but without realising it. After a few minutes of listening and watching inside myself, comes recognition and understanding. I begin processing, thoughts become more balanced and I eventually reach safety and can respond to the cause - a shout from my wife - without blame, or wanting her to not do that. She hears me, I hear her and I'm so grateful.
