Does anybody have any experience with noise and anger?
Loud noises can sometimes send me into an absolute rage. Its not all noises, I like music and even like it loud sometimes. But other noises such as ice-cream van chimes or church bells affect me very badly. I don’t know if its an ASD thing or a normal reaction to sounds I don’t like.
I used to just try and ignore it and carry on, but I think I am getting less tolerant as I am getting older. I used to just try and push through it and carry on, but now even the tannoy in a supermarket makes me have to leave my shopping and go home.
Yes, I get this as well. It's defos worse than it used to be unfortunately.
I find noises like babies crying, phones ringing, anything like that is ear splitting for me - even the buses when they stop and go Sssssss... Ahh horrible!
Sometimes it's like every sound is magnified for me.
Know that felling well. And I had a bus do that to me two months ago - I nearly jumped a foot in the air from the shock, even though I could sense it coming.
