Boyfriend learns how to calm down overwhelmed girlfriend with ADHD | Waterloo Road - BBC

Dean might be a joker and a bit of a tearaway, but you can tell he genuinely cares about Kelly Jo.

[@BGriff-]

@@unfiltered8407 Then no one has ever loved anyone. It is possible to love you AND hurt you. At least that’s what I believe.

[@unfiltered8407]

@@BGriff- Cheating shows that you don’t LOVE a person. It’s a selfish decision>selfless decision. If you willingly make the decision to lie and betray someone you claim to “care about”, then you don’t give two craps about them and they aren’t that important to you. You chose yourself over their feelings and well-being. That’s NOT love.

That was actually well done. I was expecting something stupid like him with a laser pointer and her acting like a cat or something lol. ADHD is like this, sometimes everyone just needs to be quiet and leave you alone.

So basically, sensory overload to the point where you are hardly functional 😮?

[@dps8629]

Yeah, sensory overload happens to people with ADHD just like people with Autism, though less often. We often need to have stimuli, but there is a definite range with which we can be overwhelmed. It's very difficult to explain how stimuli can suddenly change. Sounds become booming, smells intrude like strangers in your home, lights can cut through everything in your head like a knife and crowds are exhausting because you have to pay attention to as much as you possibly can all the time involuntarily. Someone you love who you enjoy can hug you and it be one of the most wonderful experiences but it can be so oppessing it feels like all of your insides are being squished and liquified as your emotions, sensations and sense of self all take flight from any point of contact.

[@JaydenTunde]

@@dps8629 I experience it sometimes but I've never been to a therapist or psychologist. To the point where I can hardly form coherent thoughts or process information around me

[@krisicinq21]

[@steam_jane5580]

This is the cutest scene, just being comfortable to be together and be the silence someone needs. It's nice that he tries to work out what's wrong and help her through her overwhelmed feeling, even if before it hadn't gone perfect with the fire.

Is she a muslim, im so confused

[@rorymckernan8502]

No, she's not a Muslim. She has ADHD, she went in there to calm down. ADHD is where you get paranoid, nervous, hyper, aggressive etc. Your emotions sometimes get the better of you, and your behaviour becomes out of control. It's worse sometimes when your in a crowded place, because that is the paranoia. So I assume, she goes in that room, to calm down, because it's nice and quiet, and the music she's listening to, is quite soothing. Relaxes her. The previous series, she had a meltdown in the classroom. I could be wrong, but that is just my guess.

[@HA-jq1mu]

@@rorymckernan8502 but she wasn’t listening to music, she was listening to an islamic prayer

[@rorymckernan8502]

​@@HA-jq1muoh OK. I don't know why. My guess is, the voice is soothing, and making her relax.

[@Lotts413]

The room that’s she’s in is a prayer room for Islamic students. One time when she was overwhelmed she burst in there because she didn’t know where else to go and someone was praying. She sat there and listening to him saying his Islamic prayers was really calming for her. So in this clip that’s where she went and she listened to prayers through her headphones. After this she got her own sensory room
