@neversosimple@AutisticDoctorStruggles@actuallyautistic I personally find your suggestion of an English expression quite fitting too. But what I personally find appealing about the German expression is that "stimulus" covers a wider range for me, t.ex. it might be more difficult to also tolerate heat, cold or bright sunshine as well. But maybe "perception" covers this as well, I am not a native english speaker.
