Hi Mark,
Well, I am a "true" Norwegian from Bergen in Norway, so I am not sure I can help you with the accent - in Norwegian it would just be Nordmannen:-) I am trying to just let the high noises go, and accept that maybe I will get symptoms/maybe not and just move on. The problem is, that I had a newyear-cracker landing next to me at new years day, and it gave me really bad hyperacusis for 5 days, so everytime I am exposed to similar noise levels, I get worried that the same will happen, or that my brain can not tolerate it. But I am less and less troubled by this, although diskoteques etc. are closed land for me. I will read the post you mention. Best regards PS: I myself married a danish woman, but except for her I would say, that swedish women in general are among the most beautiful on the earth. |
I think the concussed brain can develop a sort of PTSD from such loud startling noises. It can take a while for this sound sensitivity/anxiety to settle down. I don't think it is damage, just a startle response action. We become protective of the sounds as our brain considers them almost trauma.
I would expect exposure techniques would help. Watching fire crackers go off when you see them and expect the sound can help you brain put the sound into proper perspective. I know that I do much better with loud noises when I can see the source and anticipate the sound. My best to you. |
