I have always had a hard time with sound. Since I was very young, I had an intense fear of loud sounds like toilets flushing, balloons popping, etc. Even to this day, I would often plug or cover my ears before I flush the toilet. Not only that, I had, and still have, a hard time blocking out background noises. Whenever I studied and needed to concentrate, I could hear too many different noises that would drive me crazy. Smallest of sounds like clock ticking, pencil screeching, typing, buttons on the calculator, or any movements would make me lose my train of thought and prevent me from comprehending question. Therefore, whenever I took a test, I had to read the questions repeatedly or plug my ears, which is impossible to do if you are writing an essay. When conversing amongst the crowd or a loud classroom, I frequently missed what the other person said, so I always had to reply back "what did you say?" or agreed without knowing what was said. Do you guys have similar problems in your daily life (or during childhood)?
Thanks
