Is this an ADHD thing? I've heard it is. I'm diagnosed ADHD as of 6 months ago and before this I always just thought I was a bit odd because certain noises irritate the hell out of me. Here they are:

  • Complete silence ( I MUST sleep and work with white noise on--preferably a fan, but also brown noise is lovely).
  • My dog licking her paws. The licking sound really grinds my gears and I have no idea why.
  • People tapping in slightly out of rhythm way. Or even in rythm if it goes on for long enough.
  • Extractor fans
  • Too many people talking at once
  • Loud motorbikes
  • Planes (the sound of them flying in the sky)

Edit: I just thought of another one --the sound of windscreen wipers...
