This sums me up pretty well, but I don't cover my ears when a sound bothers me. I clench my teeth and get angry. Some other things that bother me:
- Nails on a chalkboard (I think this one bothers many people).
- Use of a nail file (If someone pulls one out, I start cringing).
- Plastic grating across concrete/cement.
- Doors slamming.
- Cabinet
- Microwave
On the other side, some sounds that I like are:
- Water gurgling over stones.
- Brown noise (white noise is too high-pitched).
- Deep voices (although I find it hard to distinguish words, especially when there is a lot of background noise).
