annoying commercials

[Guest guest]

" We eat in front of the TV to help with the sounds and she even stops eating

while we fast forward through commercials "

I have to do this for dinner too, I make my husband stop eating while I get the

dvd player set up, I'll turn the channel or mute an annoying commercial.

> I hate to say this but you may not be able to bring your friends around to

understanding. My friends don't get it and I've flat out said to them that their

eating behaviors are part of the problem, and they still do it and I know they

aren't doing it on purpose. I guess they may not realize they are evening doing

it.   On the other hand my mom was the one who saw the Today Show clip and

showed me, so she's more understanding.  We eat in front of the TV to help with

the sounds and she even stops eating while we fast forward through commercials.

 We still have problems with mindless noises that she doesn't realize she's

making but when I point them out she's willing to stop.  She does get

frustrated when I try to talk to her about stuff because it's a lot to take in

at once (I also have SPD).

> I still haven't said anything to my dad but I tried telling my best friend

just to sort of see what would happen and she didn't seem to take it too

seriously. She just said 'Oh that happens to a lot of people.' and I don't know

how to make her understand, no this is insane it affects my life everyday and

drives me to the point of horrible thoughts.

> But I'm also wondering if maybe I should just forget about that and just tell

my dad?
