can't actually explain how to do that. Anyone else know how?) b/c ocd and

trigger sights and depression are very popular sidekicks to 4s. I have trigger

sights and also all my other senses too b/c I think I have 4s under the umbrella

of Sensory Integration Disorder. But I know you can find extensive e-mails on

these subjects in the archives. You are most definitely not alone in any of

those things.

after stumbling upon it by accident. I have only just learnt of 4S, and cannot

express what a relief it is to finally have a label for what I have and to know

that I am not going mad and that it is an actual condition. I actually cried

when I found this group! For as long as I can remember I have been plagued by

what I know know to be trigger sounds and, as I am just realising, trigger

sights.

> My main sound triggers are eating sounds (chewing, crunching, swallowing,

slurping, swishing of liquid in mouth, clinking/scraping of cutlery on teeth),

cleaning teeth, banging of cupboard doors, clanking of cutlery & crockery,

clicking of heels, flip-flops, scuffing of shoes, keyboard and mouse tapping,

finger tapping/clicking, hand clapping, whistling (this is a big one at the

moment - I have just started at a new work place where a colleague whistles NON

STOP and I feel like I am going absolutely insane). Plus quite a few more!

>

> I also think I have trigger sights (I didn't even realise trigger sights

existed but it makes a lot of sense!) - amongst others, sights like people

chewing gum, eating with their mouth open, and a big one, tapping, twtiching and

fidgeting (my family is full of twitchers so it gets pretty hard). Are these

fairly common 'trigger sights'?

>

> One question - was wondering if anyone knows of a correlation between 4S and

OCD and/or depression (I have suffered from both in the past). Would be curious

to know.
