I have auditory processing problems and frequently mishear things. One recurring thing is that people will say something and I'll think they said my name - in particular, I hear things that sound similar to El and think I am being Summoned.
They say...
Ow
Eh
L
Hell
So far, this has mostly led to confusion on my part, but I personally think it's a little funny (though mildly annoying when it's very out of place).

Tafw you go to the cinema, can greatly appreciate how a movie looks but can't remember a single line of dialogue because why can't all cinema screenings have subtitles damnit!?
(Birds of Prey was great but I think I actually processed like 2 lines in to entire thing because I don't remember anything else that was said at any point)
me: what’s wrong with the sound on this show i’m watching?
me, several minutes later: ...the captions aren’t on
Audio Processing and Podcasts
Those with audio processing issues who have trouble with podcasts (I’m mostly thinking of ADHD audio processing here, but those with other kinds are welcome to answer!):
- Are there any particular kind(s) that you have the most trouble with?
- What are your favourite ones with good, complete/mostly complete transcripts?
- Are there any that your audio processing actually co-operates with, even without transcripts?
I really would love to get more into podcasts, but it's been difficult. Curious to know what others have to say on this!
For me personally: longer story ones, I don’t have any that I know of and like - this is partly why I’m asking in the first place! -, and mine tends to co-operate with the Try Guys’ Trypod and The GleeWatch
From now on if I'm watching something and using the subtitles and [music] comes on the screen without telling me what music I'm just going to assume it's Barbie-Girl by Aqua

I wish more youtube musicians who write and sing original content would either post the lyrics in the description, implement subtitles, or even an external link to the lyrics because my audio processing impaired ass is vibing with their sound but I can’t parse wtf they’re saying.
Sometimes, I suspect half the reason I like anime is because subtitles are a lot easier for me to process than audio. Exhibit A: the four episodes of the clone wars I've managed to get through in a week, Exhibit B: the 56 episodes of 'Hunter x Hunter' I've mainlined in 3 days
And I am still having problems focusing on non-text stuff, and with sounds sometimes seeming weirdly loud, though not as bad. I am managing to watch shows, game, or talk for about 45 minutes with a friend over phone before my brain either feels overworked or just wanders off like a herd of cats, preferably to quiet things like reading books or refreshing tumblr endlessly. Or wanting to nap.
Not sure if going to the general practice clinic tomorrow will be worth anything for this since it still doesn't really seem to have ties with physical issues. Also I don't feel as over-all anxious as I have been feeling today.
I may go in to just talk to the RN's there, but yeah it will mean being stuck in the walk-in lobby surrounded by strangers and that WILL boot up my anxieties again, followed by the "is this even something RN's at a GP clinic will have any ideas about at all?"
But I was definitely OK again for a while, and now suddenly my window fan and my typing sound OBNOXIOUSLY LOUD (without any actual volume changes, same as they always are) and are intruding on everything once more.
EDIT/addition 30 mins or so later: I actually have developed a noticeable headache so that might be why now for tonight? I dunno. This is so confusing and annoying. Esp since now out of nowhere I'm getting brief feelings of chills.
