hey all, I've been following this thread for a couple of weeks now but have'nt said much because my overall mood and feelings of ill health have once again taken over ....anyhow >>> Katia we have chated back and forth before and seem to have some of the same symptomology.... even if you or I or simus had SID how would one tease out these annoying and vicsious(sp) "sound problems"?
from BP disorder and a hyper responsive 'fight or flight ' over-reaction. Also I don't think a lot of pdocs are sensitive to what really annoys us....I say this because I just convinced my doc to switch me from Klonopin to Xanax for various reasons and with in the first day, my startle response to stimuli was greatly diminished...I still contend that a lot of "our" hyper-response" to stimuli is related to 'OCD'- not saying that everyone with these problems has OCD-but once again , I will say this....BP disorder and anxiety disorders are very much intertwined, and getting effective treatment for the primary condition helps-but does'nt always solve the other problems! Also Katia , I know exactly waht you mean by pleasant sounds... but I still have to be in control of wheather or not I subject myself to those sounds, noises , or intolerances...etc. If someone has the TV on a loud and annoying station-sometimes it is all I can do to tell them to turn the S*IT down or off or I have to leave the room. I feel mean that I am this sensitive but I guess it is better than grabbing the remote and stomping it into the ground! lol -- Also another thing, then I'll shut up (for now !) Do either of you or any of you have a problem with 'RAGE"- ie; wanting to go off on the simpilest of annnoyances but find that most of the time that you can contain yourself? That is a subtle marker (IMHO) for BP tendancies etc!
