Symptoms: Everything seems loud.?!
Question: Symptoms: Everything seems loud!.!?
Hi!
I used to get this often as a child!. I've only had it very occasionally as an adult!. I'm actually experiencing it right now which is why I'm asking!. I think it may have something to do with stress!?
Sometimes, everything SEEMS louder!. I know it sounds crazy, but in those instances (which last from about 5-15 mins), even the smallest sounds such as the clicking of the typewriter keys or the hum of my laptop seem amplified, while not actually being louder!.!.!.
The best way I can describe it is if you were watching a movie, and in the movie someone turns a stereo up really loud, and you can tell it's loud even though your own TV volume is at a regular level!. That's how everything seems!. It sounds like it is loud, but it isn't!. It's just incredibly distracting and I have to really concentrate to make it go away, or sometimes the very opposite: I have to busy myself with something else!.
In conclusion: Am I dying!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I had this happen to me about five times when I was between the ages of 10 and 12!. The first time it happened I was in the middle of a bout with chicken pox and figured that was the cause, but after I had it a few times I realized that it only happened after I had been reading right before I headed off to bed!. Sounds very odd - yet for some reason this was the catalyst for me!.
Like you say, everything sounded like it was screaming at me - even when I would just scuff the bottom of my feet on the carpet - which gave everything that was going on a very hostile quality that truly scared me the first time it happened!. And yes, when I describe the experience now it sees almost like I am describing a severe mental illness!
Through trial and error I found that if I splashed very cold water on my face that the symptoms would disappear!. Or maybe it was even the fact that while I was splashing the water on my face that I was leaning forward over the sink!?!? Inner ear problems (if this is one) can be caused by balance and position!.
Like I said the only thing that seemed to bring this on me was when I read while I was tired - though maybe it was the position I read in!? For years afterward I would never read at night though I have been able to for the last decade without any issues!.

No, you're not dying!. I've had this occur on many occasions!. It's my belief that it's stress-related!. I've been diagnosed with PTSD (and depression) and sometimes, like during a panic attack, everything seems loud and truly annoying!. You're not alone!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
