your "fingernails on a chalkboard"

Post Reply New Topic

I don't like bed linen on my skin but have had to get used to it. Sometimes it comes back with a vengance!

There are loads of others but thats the first that springs to my mind.

Snoring
Bass
Someone online who likes to start drama with others and plays the victim role and also plays the internet doctor
Wool
Hairy legs
Steam kettles
Sudden loud noises
Too many people talking at once at the table
Going bare foot
Those THX feature sounds theaters play right before the movie starts and even some VHS tapes have it before the movie starts
Toddlers making high pitch sounds
Sirens
Static on the radio
Internet doctors

That is the same for me too.

People asking a question and only wanting to hear a certain answer. Then when they get honest answers they didn't want to hear, the person says those other people were being mean and attacked them, etc.

Lets see

I don't like most foods especially those with overwhelming bitter taste
Loud and high pitch noise hurt my ears
I don't like being touched at all especially by strangers it makes me die alittle inside
Bright sun light also makes my eyes hurt and makes it hard for me to drive.

The words "Aspie" and "autie."

Just looking at them makes me angry.

Having to get food out of the freezer

I also don´t like the sound of TV and radio voices. It´s mostly a certain sound people put in their voices when they´re trying to sell you something, or get you interested in something. But it makes me just want to turn off the TV.

Those high pitch sounds on the TV
"I can't help it"
"Calm down"
"Accept me for who I am"

Dripping faucets for sure.

I pretty sure I have a longer sound memory than usual.
Here's why.

My mum was scratching my back and my jacket was that sports anti-sweat material.
Gahhh it hurt my ears and even had a tactile sense to it.
Seconds later I could still hear/feel it.
A normal sense memory is usually about 100 milliseconds. This one was more 3 seconds.

I've had longer sense memories too but have to do with taste-smell associations to memory. This was about 10 minutes.

By the way scratching clothing makes me want to bang my head against something.

For me, it's anything dry, like paper or cloth in my mouth. I went to a new dentist once, and after she cleaned my teeth, she used some kind of dry cottony thing to wipe inside my mouth. The thought of it right now is making all the the cells in my body feel agitated. It was really horrible, and my immediate reaction was to pull away and yell, "Cut it out!"

Then I had to explain that I wasn't really angry with her. It was just a knee-jerk reaction, and I just couldn't tolerate dry stuff in my mouth.

In movies, when they tie someone up and stick a sock in their mouth so they can't talk---that gives me the screaming heebie-jeebies.

What about when they rip the duct tape off the mouth? AAARGGGH!

Squeaky shoes will literally make me break down. Anywhere.

I'm not the only one?! Ever since I was tiny I've been irritated by people who smack or drip their consonants, sounding like they're slurping a spoonful of Rice Krispies. The worst part is that my mom actually talks like this a lot of the time, but of course there's no way to explain, let alone put nicely, "You talk like a dripping faucet" especially to someone who can't even hear what you're talking about.

The other thing that drives me crazy are those styrofoam cups, especially when they touch my teeth (even though I know that might be because my enamel's a little weak.)



And then those people turn around and call us trolls. Whaaaatever.

Thongs/flip flops/ sandals - EEWW!!
I can hear them now. And why is it that the person wearing them never stops moving?
