It’s noises for me, I can’t cope with the tv on, iPad on, washing machine on, chewing sounds, sniffing, the cat yowling. I have to go into the bedroom and calm down. I was on the train this weekend and there was a woman playing really loud videos in Spanish and a man with a gravelly voice sat behind me just talking with his friend but the two combined set me on edge. I had to cover my ears and pretend I was giving myself a massage or something 😆🤦🏻♀️
Thank you for this!! It's great to feel seen :). Breakfast is always the hardest part of the day for me. Going from dead quiet to clashing pans + screaming, laughing and singing children is overwhelming!

I hear you (no pun intended). Noise is a real trigger for me too.

Such a relatable piece Carolyn. Always a huge fan of your work.
