I have gotten the impression over time that like me you tend to get overstimulated? I could be wrong about that. I've been known to get wrong impressions.
I've gradually come to the realization that this is no different than diabetes. I can't will myself out of it, or behave better. I need to plan around it.
If you've got lots going on in one area of your life, maybe you need to compensate elsewhere? Build in down time, do those things that help you feel more grounded. And yes, order in groceries if you can.
There's nothing wrong with being a highly sensitive person (isn't that elaine aron?). It just needs some tweaking in our life planning.
