Guest guest Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Im so glad I found this site on line. I believe that I suffer from 4S as well. Ever since I was little, a child around 8 years old, There were certain sounds that caused my heart to palpitate, intense fear,anger,causing me to want to scream or bury my head in my pillow and try to block the sound out..This is when I was 8. I didnt understand what this was or anything and this condition just seemed to amplify as I got older. For me the sounds were not the " chewing " or " breathing " noises. For me it was loud trucks shifting gears as they approached. Garbage trucks, 18 Wheelers and now more recently(within the past 10-15 years) its loud motorcycles as well. This disrupts my life at such odd times, I feel like Im going to have a nervous breakdown. Ive always been very healthy and I would love to get more information on how I can live a normal life as an engineer/musician. I know its simply not a matter just a loud noise because (while im cautious out loud noises and protective of my hearing) this is something much worse than that. When it does strike me I feel like screaming, running away, or even lashing out violently (which is totally not in my nature- im not a violent girl) All I would like is some peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
