  2. Sensory overload - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_overload

    People with sensory processing issues may benefit from a sensory diet of activities and accommodations designed to prevent sensory overload and retrain the brain to process sensory input more typically. It is important in situations of sensory overload to calm oneself and return to a normal level. [6]

  3. Hypokalemic sensory overstimulation - Wikipedia

    Proponents have also claimed that adults may also show signs of sensory processing difficulties and would benefit for sensory processing therapies, [71] although this work has yet to distinguish between those with SPD symptoms alone vs adults whose processing abnormalities are associated with other disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder. [72]

  6. Paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity - Wikipedia

  7. Sensory gating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensory_gating

    The nicotine causes the receptors to release nitric oxide, which slows sensory inhibition causing a suppression of a subsequent stimuli. Due to its effect, nicotine can correct sensory gating deficits for individuals with schizophrenia (80% of individuals with schizophrenia smoke up to 30 cigarettes/day), [ 3 ] although the effects only last ...

    Symptoms may include a sense of fullness in the ear, tinnitus, and dizziness. [7] [8] The model details how symptoms may be initiated by tensor tympani muscle damage or overload due to acoustic shock or trauma. Hypercontraction or hyperactivity of the muscle may cause an "ATP energy crisis." The muscle is then forced to create energy without ...
