Sensory issues worsening with age?

Wordsmith

My wife and I went shopping in Glasgow this morning, and after the first two shops I had to stay outside – the noise and particularly the visual overload was simply overwhelming. As we talked about it later, we realized that five years ago I could have coped much better. Has anyone else noticed their sensory problems getting worse as you get older?

  • Yes, I’m finding sensory difficulties are increasing and becoming even more intolerable in certain situations. I am much more sensitive to noise pollution, but I am wondering if that is because I have become more intolerant of things like people using their mobiles on speakerphone in the countryside and in other public places that used to be quiet.
