Translated version

Sensory Overload

A state in which the brain receives too much information from the senses (sound, sight, touch) and can no longer process it. Christopher experiences this in crowds and noisy places (e.g., the London Underground). This causes him panic, pain, and a desire to withdraw from the world.

Original version

Sensorinė perkrova (Sensory Overload)

Būsena, kai smegenys gauna per daug informacijos iš pojūčių (garso, vaizdo, lytėjimo) ir nebegali jos apdoroti. Kristoferis tai patiria miniose, triukšmingose vietose (pvz., Londono metro). Tai sukelia jam paniką, skausmą ir norą atsiriboti nuo pasaulio.
