Does anyone have problems with these sounds?
I've had panic attacks from thesee sounds for decades.
I hear a buzzer or a ringing sound, I may be the door or the telephone. I panic, my heart starts a rapid irregular beat, I sweat and generally panic/don't know what to do.
I've changed my phone ringtone to less threatening music.
I sometimes wake up instantly at night when I imagine a buzzer or ringing. I check, there is no one at the door! The phone has not rang!
Do others here have these problems.

Greetings. What I mention may seem like a joke, but it is not. There is, amazingly, a thing called "Exploding Head Syndrome"...! To find out a bit more, just type in those exact words into a Browser, etc. etc... I myself recall it because I certainly have it, just like Nightmares and Tachycardia... and, I could Post stories about it but, well, not in this Post, obviously...
With regards to loud sounds or certain sounds in general - *whilst conscious* - then, yes, I offer support at that. It is one of the "Diagnostic Criteria" for ASDs, or something. And I support the fact that if one is "conditioned" to something, then it causes an involuntary reaction. There are, of course, "Therapies" around this, but, of course, their efficiency depends upon individual and physical states...
...This last could invite a lot of technical waffling, which I do not much care for (sorry), and so I am closing this Post now. Fair Play to yourself and to all.
