I wouldn't say that I like a "void", but I definitely do like quiet. Over the years, I think I've developed a degree of sensory sensitivity. I have theories about the causes. Past musical hallucinations likely contributed to my sound sensitivity. This sensitivity also applies to light. Excess light is difficult to endure for me. It has triggered everything from bipolar episodes, to anxiety, to migraines, to possible seizure activity. I haven't always been like this. I'm also guessing past trauma may have been involved.

I've written about sensory overload in my blog, in the past. I do think this sensitivity has started to ease a little over the last couple years, but not completely.
