Do you have an example of an autistic person screaming in terror all the time? As in all the time I mean, not just the times you’ve seen them. I’ve never met

Do you have an example of an autistic person screaming in terror all the time?
As in all the time I mean, not just the times you’ve seen them.
I’ve never met someone who does that so I’m curious how it works.
My friend growing up was nonverbal, we used to play legos together. He would scream when he was touched and forced to do things, but it wasn’t all the time. So I imagine someone like your describing would feel that sensory overload all the time. I’m wondering if it is ever alleviated through dark or silence, and if not that would be hard to live with.
I guess in my experience autistic people don’t scream when they’re left alone, but my experience is very limited.
