I need some sort of sign on my door
Given how rarely people knock on my door it's quite impressive that it's happened on two successive days. It was raining really heavily when I opened the door, and the guy standing there said something about a gas safety check. As it turned out he had got the wrong house, but I was not doing great cognitively and I couldn't make sense of what he was saying. So I just stared at him, trying to figure it out, while he stood in the pouring rain. Poor guy.
I wish there were stickers for doors, similar to the 'Please allow extra time to answer the door' stickers with a wheelchair symbol on them, but for cognitive/auditory processing issues. 'I may struggle to understand you, please allow extra time for me to process your words'? Because this guy must have thought I was just being rude.

has anything to match your needs, and if not, you could contact Hannah and ask whether she'll make one - she's always expanding her range and covers a lot of disabilities/conditions.
