After I get sensory overload, I get stressed when I talk to people. They can talk with me but when I have to talk to them I get really stressed. Any clue what this is?

I don't know what that is. I just know that I have been in that kind of state often in my life. It may be anxiety. When it happens to me, I will excuse myself and have a break. My reasoning is if I can deal with it, I need to rest and relax and wait a bit to get comfortable enough to resume any communicate. It is okay. Everyone needs to pause a bit when they feel stressed. If the problem is bothering YOU much, find a good therapist to help you work through it. My thinking is anxiety.
