Identify a present demand and a useful response

You feel under pressure and need a practical next step.

Everyday practice

Try these steps

1. Describe the demand and any immediate real-world safety or access needs.
2. Choose a response appropriate to the circumstances, such as leaving, asking for help, clarifying a task, or pausing.
3. Use existing individualized guidance where relevant rather than trying to control a named brain structure.

An example

A crowded room makes it hard to follow the discussion; I ask for another format or setting.

Reflect

Did the response address the actual circumstance?

Next time

Review practical arrangements before a similar situation.
