Are you easily overstimulated?

I’m curious if this is a universal experience for all migraine patients.

My migraine attacks are triggered by the overstimulation of any of my senses…. Too much heat, too much movement, too much hunger, too much to do, feeling rushed, feeling overwhelmed, too many people, too much noise or worse… a combination of those things.

I always crave being home, quiet, order, peace, calm, etc.
Chaos is the enemy!
I prefer small quiet gatherings, low key outings, dim lights.

Is anyone else like this?
