I am currently experiencing a difficult situation with my partner of 6 years.
I have allot of sound difficulties. I have allot of trouble throughout my day as certain sounds distract me and also hurt. I have been seeing as ASD specialist in order to help me cope with the extreme anxiety that used to accompany the unpleasant sound session.
Anyway, I have an issue with my boyfriends habbit of cracking his knuckles. I have been really upset by it over the past year or so and have asked him to stop. Anyway a year has passed and he hasn't managed to kick the habit... I guess it is complicated as it is difficult for him to stop but then it is also very very hard for me to cope as well as learn how to not be so stressed by the sound.. My boyfriend is kind of obstinant and feels like because I have the problem with him doing, I should be the one to change. He has gone through stages of trying not to do it but then he falls back into the habbit.. Anyway it is very distressing and feel like I don't know what to do...
