I too need a lot of quiet too. Too many things at one time, loud noises or even just the failure of too many things to go right in a short time seems to short wire my brain. Normaly Im the one people turn to in a crisis, not right now though....
Deep breathing helps, talking with my T, Ti Chi....all the best.

I actually wondered if Purple has some sort of PTSD also. I am no one to be giving a diagnosis, but what you described sounded very much like a film I saw with a returning veteran who could not handle noise, people talking at the same time. He also became very angry, like you describe.
I hope that's not the case for you, Purple, but I wanted share and send my healing thoughts.
