  • I’m finding it exactly the same as you mentioned. I have been indoors most of the time apart from walking my dog early in the morning when it’s quieter. This weekend has been terrible regarding noise. It felt as if everything was closing in on me. I can hear everyone’s conversations. I don’t know why everyone has to shout. It’s like living in the middle of a holiday camp at the moment. I have had so many headaches and really anxious.
