Can you be hypo and hyper sensitive at the same time? It's odd because some very loud noises don't bother me, but when I'm watching tv and I make the slightest movement It completely impairs my ability to hear the tv. Some loud noises don't bother me while certain lower noises bother me.Also same with light, some bright lights don't bother me as much (fluorescent lights don't bother me) but sunlight can bother me even on a cloudy day.
