Hate certain sounds but also hate silence

Whats-His-Face

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?

  • Sometimes I love silence, and sometimes I don't. It depends.  Often, I am unhappy with both silence and the lack of it.

    The biggest problem with silence, or the lack of it, is at night.

    I live in a flat, with other flats around me.  One problem is the noise of air extractors in the bathrooms. I get annoyed at the sound of it in neighbouring bathrooms,  then I get annoyed when it stops and I get silence.

    The noise from guests in other flats also annoys me. Sometimes they have parties,  the noise from the loud talking, the music and the giggling gets on my nerves.  I am never invited.

    The worst noise is a loud, unexplained,  background, something moving sound.  This is outside and low level, very annoying.  It goes on and on. To tolerate it, I turn the TV on.
