Please Give Advice - Tumblr Posts

my first con!

me and my friend are going to a convention this weekend for the first time. so excited! she's also participating in the cosplay contest! however, do the congoers of tumblr have any good tips or advice for first-timers?

i need to get something serious off my chest and i need serious help so if anybody can give me some advice it would be greatly appreciated

i have really bad sensory issues in both sound and touch

my dad doesn’t really understand that, as he’s part of the older generation where mental health and sensory issues weren’t really a thing

i just had a panic attack after 1 hr of being outside due to my hair not wanting to be put up nicely and my shoes just didn’t feel right along with someone trying to talk to me the whole time

my dad got really upset at me, as he has been every time i tell him about my sensory issues

i had a panic attack at my school’s fair and i was with him and he got upset at me for wanting to leave

he also likes to blast his sports out in public even when people are around because he “doesn’t care what people think about him”

when i asked him if he could turn it down he got even more upset at me

what should i do
