I've had an easier time of it since I started wearing headphones everywhere, actually. I can't stand city noise, voices especially. I have actually become violent in the past, and when combined with crowds / harsh lighting, it can make me have a meltdown.

A lot of the time I can only listen to noise / repetitive music like Swans though, as anything more melodic sends me mental.

Were we separated at birth??? I used to wear headphones EVERYWHERE!!! Now I'm just on the phone to Sham man when out and about. I can't stand people. When I had to do my Christmas shopping Shammy was the only person keeping me from killing people. Almost literally. He could hear the rage and anxiety in my voice as I had to wade through "people". For someone that is easy to get on with I oddly hate people. I suppose I just have good judgement as to the people I allow to occupy my space.

The birds in the trees outside and general buzz of the town. Felix has gone out so no radio or music on. Sometimes my nerves are so raw, because of the illness, I'm overly sensitive to some sounds. Horrible thing to have when your a jazz fan :|

I will now leave this thread as I have nothing to add. Sorry.

argh I know what that's like I think Kate. Take full advantage of the chance to potter about quietly and listen to the birds...not too many tippi hedron types of birds lol arghhhh...No peace , quiet and serenity..

When you feel like it this is a blindin chill out tune https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GT0tudy0K5Q Xavier Rudd. Full Circle.

Suns out down here. Not a cloud in the sky. So you may well be in line for a bit of sunshine later.

That Swans song really surprised me Sam...its like he's been released from all his torment and its..humble in its way isn't it?

Might indulge in a bit of Norah Jones myself Sadie 'Come Away from Me' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GT0tudy0K5Q.

It's because I have this mental health thing Sadie - sometimes its like someone's peeled all the cover off my nerve endings.

I like my bass, sax etc and all that - it fills my heart with joy, hence some jazz makes me so happy. But I'm just going through a bad phase just now that most music is like chalk squeaking on a blackboard feeling for me. It's a horrible thing to have. It'll pass as I get better though. Thank you for your kindness and care honey.

I know that exact feeling. It took me till my thirties and the advent of practically-sized portable music players to appreciate what a difference it makes.

Before that, my ex would be as tolerant as possible, but she'd still suspect I was faking it, and end up losing it with me. Helped matters greatly...

I think he was very much in love for the first time in his life (thirty-three or so), and yeah, I think you're spot on.
 
This fucking flu got my ear canals all blocked up.

The one time I find myself in a good creative mood, I can't listen to music or record my shit because it feels like I have the palm of my hand up to my right ear.

So yeah im trying to listen to my music but can[t.
