HSP Podcast #8: I’m So Jumpy! (Loud Noises and Sudden Sounds)

Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | RSS

I am jumpy. I’ve been scared by my own shadow (no joke). Just last night, I was using my iPhone as a flashlight in the dark, when it illuminated a mirror, and my reflection scared me. Also not joking.

In Episode 8 of the Highly Sensitive Person Podcast, I talk about how some sounds affect me greatly–specifically, loud, sudden, and incessant noises.

From buses to babies to birds (that alliteration was so lucky), I explain what sets me off and why I think it affects HSPs more than others.

Resources mentioned in this episode:

• Misophonia (sound sensitivity) support
• Another Misophona support site
