Not liking the noise because of the sound or when anxious?

NAS84722

Hi, just wanting your thoughts. When noise gets too much, whether it’s too loud or you don’t like a certain sound or it’s a particular environment. Is it the noise or can it be because your anxious?. Can some people hear the same noise and it bother them some days and not others? Depending on how anxious you are?.

  • It's important to pay attention to and listen to your senses. We might not always understand what we're "picking up", as even matters of sound are incredibly specialised and require a good dive into physics to understand acoustics, and the impact on human beings. There are valuable reasons for liking or disliking sound and sometimes they can trigger deeper signals better understood by an anthropologist. But first, allow room for validity. If it isn't actually connected to something harmful, and you'd like to get past it, sometimes we can. But other times, it won't change and removing the source is the best course.

    Sometimes sounds are also a combination of something unpleasant compounded with social cruelties.

    I personally find crisp packets and crunching in a library sensationally an assault - it's not just rude, it sends domineering messages. And if a male is doing this, depending on how he's raised, no woman could ask him to take it outside, which makes it even more irritating.
