Hate certain sounds but also hate silence

So i'm an aspie and am asking this this to see if I'm the only one or if some of you guys share this with me. As the title states, there are certain noises that grind my gears, like snoring, tapping/banging(unless im doing it which is fine) dogs barking and many more, but i detest silence, i cant stand sitting in a silent room, i need noise, be it the tv or music or people talking as long as I'm not trying to do the previously mentioned as then their talking winds me up lol. I also love loud music, the louder and bassier the better, many a times i've fallen asleep to the sound of war in my ears(battlefield games). Anyone else hate silence?

  • how do you feel about those things you get on youtube: 10 hours of dolphin sounds? or tibetan meditation sounds?

    i put them on to drown out noises i dont like when trying to sleep.

  • I prefer to practice breathing control and listen to myself doing it. I can't even be bothered to figure whether it could be called mindfulness, meditation or self-hypnosis. When I begin to realise that there are some rather bizarre (but usually quite entertaining) thoughts passing through my mind, it is obvious that some sort of trance state is one the way. It's almost like you resign yourself to that state.

  • ha i know what you mean. i should try that.

    i have terrible trouble with sleep (why im awake right now)

    one time when i was working in a kitchen i hadn't slept for two days.

    when i got home i fell asleep standing up in the kitchen and people said it was like i was sleep walking - walking around miming making food in mid air like i was holding a frying pan. 

    in my dream i was back at work flipping burgers haha. sleeps quite funny when you think about it.

    i read somewhere when you sleep your brain floods with cerebral spinal fluid as a sort of "flush" for all the used up neural precursors for the day.
