Presently I am unable to sleep due to the noise from the fridge's motor. Ticking clocks, rave music /repetitive, heavy bass as well as people talking loudly (esp in confined area such as elevator) or with a high pitch affect me negatively. The sound of the road whilst driving annoys me. I find listening to classical music helps. I have had epilepsy since I was 12. I have had less seizures as an adult. I was also advised by an ENT(ear, nose and throat specialist) to have a septoplasty/ surgery to correct my deviated septum as this causes severe sinusitis which in turn causes uncomfortable pressure build -up in my ears.
I have bought several pairs of blue tinted polarised glasses without fully knowing why I found this colour to be so calming. I always switch the fluorescent lights off in my office, and allow natural light in through the windows. I try not to look at pc monitor for too long - for this nauseates me due to subtle flicker. I grin and bear arduous meetings held in venues with such lighting.Shopping malls are a veritable nightmare in terms of sound and lighting. This is exacerbated by poor dietary habits causing my blood sugar levels to plummet. Also have hypotension.
I have motion sickness - I cannot look at google earth without feeling dizzy.
I believe that understanding is as crucial as sharing experience/advice.
