#why is everything so loud

[mayakimayahai]

Ek toh, I don't feel comfortable wearing earphones in places that I'm not familiar with, although I mean I kinda grew up here it is still not a place I would ever be comfortable in and I hate myself for it

oh my god

It sucks there's no real quiet alone space in schools. Like I can't take a shit without someone laughing and talking in the bathroom. I just want quiet spaces where I can write or draw or do homework without wanting to commit acts of violence

sensory hell

So it's come to my attention that consistently not being able to filter background noise might be a symptom of ADHD? But like, people don't hear everything at a super loud volume and have trouble in public conversations because they can't pay attention cause every sound is at the same volume? Like people aren't constantly aware of the sound of the vents or someone drinking water in the kitchen when the sound should be muffled or like of people talking, footsteps, music, people breathing, and like six different conversations going on, cars driving by or pages turning or water running or someone dropping their pen and wondering when they're going to notice and zoning out because all the sounds are too loud but the thing you were doing is super important and you needed to pay attention but now you have to ask everyone who was talking to you to repeat what they said like five times because you couldn't focus the first time?

That's like... not normal?

And like people can play group games that are really competitive without it getting super loud really quickly when your brain is hyper aware of the sounds of every person in the room all at once and you're trying not to breakdown because you don't want to be shunned for not being able to do things normally just because everything is way too loud?

Is this like a symptom? Or is this just a trauma response? it's getting increasingly harder to tell. :(

but like I'm not even aware I'm doing it most of the time.

Well. better just add that to the growing box of "things wrong with my brain that I really should do something about but probably won't"

As someone who has sensory processing issues, being able to hear electricity and finding it incredibly annoying isn't anything new. But omg, my fridge is definitely making a pass for most annoying sound coz I'm genuinely debating throwing it out the window. I've told it to shut up no less than 7 times today and I'm laying here trying to sleep and getting no where because all I can hear is

Nnmnmnmmmnnnnnnnnn

I'm going to cry

[izzy-with2zs]

back "home"

I really missed the trains right next to me - especially at night. There goes another one ..

And the noise from the restaurant kitchen directly under me, all day every day.

And not to forget the confused neighbour above me doing fucking woodworking early in the morning on any random day of the week.

[empresscosmolips]

Man i need someone to lock me in a casket and throw me in the ocean

[s1xseasonsandamov1e]

Sometimes I forget how loud the world is until I take off my noise cancelling headphones and I immediately wanna kill myself

[sharky-the-idiot]

WHY IS EVERYTHING SO LOUD?????? I'M GONNA FUCKING CRY I CAN'T TAKE SCREAMING AT ALL

WHY AM I LIKE THIS????? IT'S TOO LOUD THAT I'M GONNA START BREAKDOWN CRYING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PEP RALLY LIKE PLEASE QUIET DOWN 😭

MY MOM TOLD ME I'M OVERREACTING AND GAVE SHITTY ADVICE LIKE MOM THAT DOESN'T WORK 😭😭😭😭

[queso-magnifico]

Do y'all ever just wear noise-cancelling headphones around the house with nothing playing

Victories give you confidence. My confidence are super high, but still, in some situations, I'm still struggling a bit. But, in that situation, with more confidence, I think I would have struggled less. So, let's see if we can continue working in that way.

Or, everyone loves to tease FirstKhaotung, but P'Leo might be the one who loves it the most.

Alternatively, what is the joke we'll never know about?

Also, why was Satang the first to react, and also the loudest?

So many questions.

My personal headcanon is that Pony got his love for reading from Darry. When Darry was in high school he’d read the books he got in class out loud to Ponyboy and straight up just handed him some of the easier ones so they could talk about it later. In my brain the reason Ponyboy clings onto it so much is because it’s one of the things he and Darry REALLY bonded over when he was a kid and it just brings back good memories of when they got along better.
