Finally the thing that has physically hurt me for as long as I can remember has a name and, my God, I'm not insane!! 47 years of utterly insanity inducing sounds. I'm not the insane person I was told I was. Now I can learn about the disorder and maybe, just maybe, do something about it.
Alex, you have no idea how grateful I am for your having posted this here. I believed there was something wrong with me. I've felt so out of control and often, not able to do the things everybody else does because I knew I would encounter those pain-inducing sounds.
True, that, Jesss. And I see many a writer/critic refer to Scientology's baseless claims to explain away psychiatric medicine, particularly the real success the field has had in helping woman and children. Often it doesn't take much of a Google to see the direct link to Scientology influence on opinion. Why academics are not more diligent to weed out this silliness is beyond me.
BEST EVER!

Thank you thank you thank you!
Okay, I'll get off my soap-box now
