Autistic Quote by Sandra Cisneros

“I can't hang around with lots of people these days because I am hypersensitive. So when I am around a lot of people or a big roomful of people I get almost autistic. I get overwhelmed and really tired. So I don't like being around large groups.” quote by Sandra Cisneros — Download Open image
