I’m sure I’m not alone in this, but anybody got any tips on how to cope with it? Certain sounds just drive me up the wall, one of them is swallowing/chewing…it drives me absolutely mad to the point I’m literally pulling my hair out, what’s left of it.
I find my partner to be particularly loud when slurping/seallowing drinks, and I often have to sit blocking my ears with my fingers or using earplugs, it drives me insane, and to be fair I probably drive her insane too with my unreasonable reaction.
Anybody got any long term solutions? Or psychological tricks I can use to try manage it? There’s plenty of other sounds that drive me absolutely insane, but because involves my partner I want to be able to try and manage it better.
thankyou
