something i dont hear talked enough about in the community is paranoia. for me paranoia is a huge issue. one of my biggest fears and triggers is hiccups. im constantly on high alert. it sounds dumb and counterproductive but im always scanning for triggers and it sucks because as soon as i notice it i cant unnotice it. but anyway, its hard to relax when my brain is constantly scanning for trigger sounds. and one of the worst parts is sometimes my brain will convince me i hear something that isnt there. ill think i hear someone with hiccups in the other room and have to stop in my tracks, lift off my headphones and take out my earplugs to make sure, and the cycle continues all day long. its not only with hiccups but thats my best example. its exhausting living day to day life like this. idk if anyone else can relate?
