If yes, then I am eager to know how.
Sudden means no time to "train" the senses to relax.
I am now open about being an aspie and people are accepting that, although they sadly do joke deliberately to get a laugh from me being literal, which makes me want to scream and then, go on a rant about what I am obsessed with that day lol turn thy tables (not literally).
If you start to feel ok about being an aspie, you then can say to them that when they are drunk and suffering a major hang over, does it not feel like a drill in your head? Well, each time, some bangs the door, that is how my senses react.
But, of course, you would need a loud speaker, so everyone can hear.
The other suggestion is wearing noise reducers.
Last night, a blasted fighter plane went passed and then, a horrible dull humming. It was driving me crazy, but hubby, although yes, could hear it, just did not care. I was very fidgety and kept muttering that I am so tired, please stop. Tiredness must have won the night though.
My husband is incredulous that I couldn't cope with the humming, but have my music very loud.
