newly sound sensitive adult

[Guest guest]

in sept i had a bad reaction to a mix of dif pain meds which landed me in a coma

for 5 days. my family was told i was going to die, then that my brain was fried

and i would need long term care. i spent 3wks in the hosp, but bounced back

pretty good, for a dead woman. lack of ox to the brain has caused some hearing

issues. everyone sounds like they have been inhaling heliumn. i have some

hearing loss and what i hear now is too loud and distorted. it's to the point of

causing panic attacks. my husbands voice, my son, my dog barking feels like it's

shooting through me. it's like the vibration from the sound is causing it too.

to fix dinner, i have to wear earplugs to be able to focus. if too much is going

on my heart starts pounding and i usually end up closing myself off in a quiet

room crying. public places are way too much now. things i found enjoyable are a

thing of the past. like watching tv, dining out, movies, concerts, listening to

music on the radio, ect. i can't tell who i'm talking to on the phone because

everyone sounds the same. noises that never really bothered me, now are like

nails on a chalkboard and others i can't hear at all, like beeping types of

sounds, microwave, fridge, alarmclock...anyone have any advise??
