Wow,  I am not the only person who has all these signs:  they all fit me to a T.

The clinking of a spoon against a bowl, is something that I can hear 3 rooms away, and send me over the roof!  Ice-chewing, I can't take it,  I literally have to leave the room!  Clocks ticking are soo distracting that it is the only noise that I focus on.  Windshield wipers with a noise are completely irritating to me.  Any repetitive noise, like someone bouncing a basketball right next to me, a pencil tapping, and gum cracking.  I have literally had to leave events, because I was stuck next to someone who was doing one of these activities.  I am CONSTANTLY telling me kids to stop making these noises.  My husband thinks I am PSYCHO and says that he CAN'T DO ANYTHING because I'm nuts.    I have been made to feel as though I am ruining the household because I also cannot listen to these noises.  It's something that pulls me right to that sound, and I become obsessed with it, even though I don't want to hear it.      What medication is there for this type of possible ADD (now that I know what I have)??     What a relief to hear that I am not just a psycho or a obsessive psycho!!
