I can't handle the sound of someone chewing something crunchy ie: lettuce, chips, etc..., slurping liquids, moaning while eating (gross), unnecessary loud yawning, tapping of fingers, phone ringing in my own house (actually startles me so bad my heart jumps & I feel faint), lawn mowers, leaf blowers, washing machine, dishwasher, dryer, even someone tinkling in the toilet so that I can hear it (yuck). They all make me insanely irritable & angry and I just want to lock myself in my room to get away from them. I just ruins my whole day. Any one else experience this. Yes, I know some of these noises are universally annoying but they should not send a person into an absolute rage or startle them so bad they feel threatened into a fight or flight reaction. Yes, thank you, I am on something for anxiety.
