    I am sensitive with sounds as in, I will only hear background noises and not what is in front of me e.g. if someone is talking to me - I totally block it all, can't hear the person speaking. I was tested for deafness as a child and it baffled all my teachers and has become a huge problem in a work environment to the point I now work for myself! I prefer quietness of the house or online shopping rather than crowds of people or busy streets/shops.
