Misophonia is my bugbear. Though I only recently discovered it to be a thing; I just thought I was an irritable person. It is far far less concerning as I age but was quite confusing for a good couple of decades.
Your story of hearing the crt and digital notches also happened to me. I rarely tune into that stuff nowadays. I feel for you.
- h2odragon 6y agocan you hear capacitors charging and discharging? I found it comforting when i discovered that source of noise, where just knowing what it is helps. Audio phase isn't discernible to most people; but you might be hearing it if you can perceive dead/bright spots in rooms at various frequencies. I think many people are more sensitive to these things than they realize, but work out coping strategies without the problem ever becoming something they're conscious of as an actual thing.
- IndySun 6y agoI hear short sounds more than people around me. I work with audio and consequently find it hard to switch 'listening' off. Hotel rooms are fun - no, it isn't a quiet room. Phase is something I notice all the time, and fix it, speakers, mixes, dead spots. You're totally right about sensitivity & coping strategies.
