> How could I forget! Both sounds drive me nuts especially if the gum chewing also involves blowing bubbles... I think such sounds aggrevate me more than even my anxiety because I feel like I'm a pressure cooker who wants to pulverize the person making these sounds but I know I can't. Interestingly, most sounds that bother me usually involve sounds that people make.I used to have SUCH a problem w/ gum smackers as a kid. And for some strange reason in my twisted mind I somehow switched it around to be a relaxing sound. Explanation unknown?! Wish I could do this w/ ALL my disturbances if I only know how I did it w/ that one!
But don't you agree that these things CAUSE anxiety and depression? I know they do in me. First anxiety and then a crash into sadness.
