Sounds

Lately I hate sounds. When my husband watches TV I find myself constantly asking him to turn it down, it sounds like it's blaring but he tells me it's low.

I'm similar with music unless it's in a lower key and then I'm OK. So I can listen to classic rock, blues, punk, techno etc, but as soon as he puts on some alternative I feel like going nuts. I start ranting that it's too high pitched and that it sounds tinny and piercing.

I know this is common with us, but for whatever reason lately it's just really bad.

I want to stop being so darn grumpy. On Saturday a guy I had just met told me I'm full of angst. He wasn't being mean, I think I just am these days. Everything is making me annoyed, but especially certain sounds.

I know, keep detoxing

yeah I get the smells and light thing too. Luckily the light thing isn't too bad right now.

For days I kept smelling skunk whenever I walked into the house. My husband insisted there was no smell. There was something.....

I really should have just taken my laptop upstairs instead of staying in the living room glaring at my husband for watching TV. I mean it's not like he can move that thing.

When I get like this I really hate when people ask me questions. I don't want to think or speak

I have some problems with sound, especially in a restaurant with bad acoustics, so it's a mix of music and people talking. I smell things too, my worst being smoke. Cat urine would be worse! My sense of smell is poor, so that makes it harder to figure out if I'm smelling things or if there really is something.

Yeah things can get really overwhelming fast. I called a restaurant today to make a reservation and there was a ton of background noise. I could barely hear the lady but she seemed unaware even though I kept telling her that there was too much noise for me to hear her. I found myself getting so annoyed over this 2 minute call.

I used to be one of those people that could be around people all the time, and loved a good crowded party. Now I just want peace and quiet.
