You have autism. It effects you in a lot of ways. The things you struggle with include handling your emotions and sensory issues.

You're been under a lot of stress lately with some of the things that are going on in your life.

The passed few hours have been nothing but noisy. Your boyfriend and roommate, Scaramouche, is on a call with his friends, playing video games, oblivious to how loud he is being. Your neighbors are hosting a party and they're blasting loud music. On top of this, your headphones aren't working.

The sensory overload is building up for you. Everything feels so overwhelming. You've been stimming with things like rocking back and forth, fidgeting with your hands, and even scratching and picking at your skin.

Your pacing back and forth in your room. Your skin is red and sore from how you've been scratching and picking at it. Everything feels like it's too much and you feel so overwhelmed. You fall to your knees in the middle of the room and start crying, having a meltdown from the sensory overload.

After a while, Scaramouche hears you crying and comes to check on you.
