    • THANK you! So why aren’t you going insane?

    • I just decided to not let it bother me.

      “Why can’t you just ignore someone eating next to you, and also, why do you have to wear headphones and/or listen to metal all the time”

    Both. My wife is the super genius but sensitive to light, sound and smell. She wear special glasses, age has taken the edge off her sensitive hearing, and COVID-19 practically deleted her sense of smell. She’s never been happier. Her new favorite thing to do is walk around theme parks because the sounds and smells no longer bother her.

        100%. She’s lost a ton of weight and is as skinny today as when we met 30 years ago. She says she just doesn’t really enjoy food any more and she can eat super spicy now. She’s turned into one of those suited guys from Fringe where they put on a ton of hit sauce on everything because they couldn’t taste anything otherwise.

      I keep a spectral analyzer app on my phone so I can check if it’s a real noise or just tinnitus settling in.

      Jokes on you, my tinnitus canceled it out. Now EVERYTHING rings.

        If only. 😞 My ADHD-I brain often just decides that that is the thing we are going to focus our attention on, because apparently it’s preferable to be bloody annoyed by some stupid sound than to get actual work done.

    Idk why folks are complaining… The movie the predator told me that autism’s the next step in human evolution.

    I really feel like I should /s this comment.
