Sorry but, How do you go with all the other media? Cinema, free to air, you tube, the ads at the petrol station etc…moving images are everywhere.
Has it been a lifelong issue?
Edit: sorry if too personal, just say “secure that shit Hudson”! and I’ll shut up.
The short repetetive movements that gifs have are the worst, but I hate the ads at petrol stations and things like that too. Specifically watching a movie or video is fine, but having it on in the background is really distracting and makes it hard to concentrate on other things - it’s like it takes all my attention and I can’t think properly.
I think it’s always been a bit of an issue, but until fairly recently we didn’t have moving pictures everywhere for it to be as noticable. It’s something I’ve been able to understand about myself a bit better more recently after learning about neurodivergence and sensory issues. It’s started to become something I can understand enough to explain to other people, whereas before it was just “I don’t like it” which really doesn’t convey the depth of it at all.

Ok thank you. I can relate as MissGod has sound sensory issues.
indeed, I have loud tinnitus 24/7 that was worsened by last years covid vaccination
hence I like a little background noise all the time , but I try not to impose
