Re: Do you have flare ups or cycling?

[Guest guest]

mine "flares up" more than 3 times a year. haha.

ya, but there are days when I'm not AS bothered.

Do you have "flare ups" or cycling?

I don't know if it's typical or not, but for me 4S seems almostcyclic. Most of the time, auditory (and some visual and olfactory)stimuli are a bit grating but manageable. Once in a rare while, I willexperience "mellow times" where nothing at all bothers me, even if itwould have previously driven me mad. But, about three times a year, Ifind that my 4S sort of "flares up", as I call it, and gets reallyquite terrible.Now, these cycles don't seem to be driven by anything in particular,be it psychological, physiological, or social... I could "flare up" onvacation just as easily as I could in exam week (thankfully, my lastmellow time coincided with exam week), just as easily in the winter asin the summer, and so on. So it just seems to be without any realreason at all.So please pardon me for going on so long, but I wonder... do youexperience cycling too? And, if so, do you think that it might

berelated to something in particular or is it just there? I'd be mostinterested to hear your responses!
