Guest guest Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Hi I'm new to this site. I reviewed Marsha 's description of soft sound sensitivity and for the first time felt like I read something that described me perfectly!!! Where is this info? I have pursued psychiatric avenues (both talk therapy and medications) which helped in some aspects but has not helped with this particular problem at all. I hear you... along the way someone put in a report that I was becoming phonophobic,photophobic and agoraphobic. When I saw them next, I asked how they came to those conclusions? " Well, you are afraid of sound and light, and you don't even want to leave the house anymore " . Excuse me! Yes, I may be afraid of sound and light, but not because I have an irrational fear of it, but because it HURTS me. Why can't doctors understand that it hurts us? So I told them pretend you have a huge monster outside your house and you won't leave the house because of that monster. Now, are you monster-phobic?? (sorry but I don't know the name for fear of monsters) and won't leave only because you have an irrational fear of monsters, or do you have a rational fear of being eaten alive by that monster and won't leave? There was dead silence. Of course it always comes back to: " what do you thing about that " ? Drugs can help the anxiety and depression, I agree. But it does not cure the SSS or hyperacusis, or whatever ... OH, and whatever you do, every doctor, ER visit, person you contact about your ailments... get a copy of the record and the report to your doctor. Read them and keep them. You would not believe some of the things in those reports that you MUST have corrected or it will come back later to haunt you. Where can I get help? If you find the answer to that, please let me know! I have done the " 12 doctor shuffle " and still have it. Please repeat above, and my post from me from the other day.... and add... " hey, take this drug, you will all better " ... lol... and I don't know why but all this always makes me think of the song by Jefferson Airplane called " White Rabbit " ... it runs through my head every time I write about the handing out of drugs by doctors. I will have to download it to my MP3 and listen to it when I am at the doctors office! Jefferson Airplane, " White Rabbit " One pill makes you larger And one pill makes you small And the ones that mother gives you Don't do anything at all ......... Remember what the doormouse said: " Feed your Head Feed your Head! " mab.... yarn and tea is my " fix " ... lol.. namaste _/\_ http://queenkahuna-creations.com " any gauge " socks on two circs... patterns for the " visual " learner ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No virus found in this outgoing message.
