    Is this more of an ADHD thing, or an ASD thing?

    I don’t like bright overhead lights, either. I was diagnosed ADHD at the tender age of 56.

      Most people don’t, I think. Our office got LEDs to replace our fluorescent bulbs and we leave the lights entirely off since then. Or maybe we’re all secretly on the spectrum lol.

        My office used to do this, until upper management caught wind and threw an absolute fit over it. Then they paid the building manager to come in and remove the lightswitches so we couldn’t turn the lights off ever again, there’s literally an alarm that goes off if the circuit is broken.

        Yay for having a mild headache every single day!
