My own noises are Normal and Fine
Everyone else’s noises are Evil and Mean
100dB high-pitched guitars, relentless double bass and shrieking vocals at a black metal show: total bliss.
My kids when they yell out of excitement: unbearable.
Like driving on the highway:
Everyone going slower is an idiot, everyone going faster is an asshole.
Ah same as farts
One way I’ve seen this explained is that the bad sensory stuff is things that you can’t control. Whereas the humming or chatting or music or whatever is something that you’re in complete control of. It’s noise that you want and expect, not noise that’s disrupting you.
your noises have been processed by your brain before you even made them, so they’re not bad
I would be so interested to compare .log files for an autistic person and a ‘normal’ person.
Audhd here, It would be nice if it were a quiet log file. I log straight to the console AND it’s probably with DEBUG enabled.
Ugh, lucky bastards probably don’t even have a console.log, let alone a file.
I’m pretty sure they’re equipped with a wonderfully sophisticated logging facility that’s piped straight to /dev/null
I have misophonia and sounds that I make myself are definitely included. I try to minimise the noise I make at basically all times.
My own noises definitely bug me sometimes, and I generally try and keep quiet. Can’t really recommend, though. It definitely contributes to making one’s self an uninteresting wallflower.
Solutions exist.
Yeah but you get lonely after a while.
Everyone does from time to time. The trick is to find a similar deviant to cuddle with. ^^
