Guest guest Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Hi,Just wanted to quickly introduce myself as I have only just found this group after stumbling upon it by accident. I have only just learnt of 4S, and cannot express what a relief it is to finally have a label for what I have and to know that I am not going mad and that it is an actual condition. I actually cried when I found this group! For as long as I can remember I have been plagued by what I know know to be trigger sounds and, as I am just realising, trigger sights. My main sound triggers are eating sounds (chewing, crunching, swallowing, slurping, swishing of liquid in mouth, clinking/scraping of cutlery on teeth), cleaning teeth, banging of cupboard doors, clanking of cutlery & crockery, clicking of heels, flip-flops, scuffing of shoes, keyboard and mouse tapping, finger tapping/clicking, hand clapping, whistling (this is a big one at the moment - I have just started at a new work place where a colleague whistles NON STOP and I feel like I am going absolutely insane). Plus quite a few more!I also think I have trigger sights (I didn't even realise trigger sights existed but it makes a lot of sense!) - amongst others, sights like people chewing gum, eating with their mouth open, and a big one, tapping, twtiching and fidgeting (my family is full of twitchers so it gets pretty hard). Are these fairly common 'trigger sights'?One question - was wondering if anyone knows of a correlation between 4S and OCD and/or depression (I have suffered from both in the past). Would be curious to know. Yahoo!7: Catch-up on your favourite Channel 7 TV shows easily, legally, and for free at PLUS7. Check it out.
