Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest

Monday night torture.

OMG my Monday night class is TORTURE. I want to cry. Why do people smack that much? Seriously every time they open their mouth for FOUR HOURS. My ears hurt. I just wanted to cover them and cry. I don’t participate in class. It’s really hard to care at all when you just want to scream. There’s this blond girl who sits next to me, and she tries to be friendly, but she smacks when she eats, talks, BREATHES. I just want to strangle her. She does this for the entire class. Everyone else in that class does as well. I don’t know how people don’t hear it. It’s TORTURE for me. I got to leave after a few hours since I’d watched a movie at home, but it was so bad that I’m still shaking 2h after leaving. My ears hurt. Why do people smack so much? I can’t take it. It makes me not want to have any interaction with anyone. My prof wonders why she can’t talk to me. First, I can’t think on the spot when someone confronts me with a questions. Second, when class is that much torture, it’s really hard to care even a little bit. I’m angry and resentful, and I certainly don’t want to do a stupid report.

Comment by Ihaveitall on December 10, 2011 at 12:03pm: sorry Cordellia I just saw your vlog on your experience with doctors. So please just ignore my comment below. Probably was a really stupid thing to say.....You're the greatest!

Comment by Ihaveitall on December 10, 2011 at 10:38am: this has been reported as a sign of autism. I'm not saying you're autistic so don't take offense but have you ever talked to a Dr about this? Also the wanting to cover your ears is a sign also. Hope you find a way to deal with it it must be terrible! :(

Comment by Jane Wilson on May 3, 2011 at 4:01am: Sorry but you must realize that being angry at other people for being normal is a waste of energy. You might want to figure out why you are having this reaction. Do you have really good hearing? Do you hear sounds other people usually miss? Just like some people (usually artists) can see differences in colors others miss. other people have superior hearing. I have always had average to poor hearing, with a few missing octaves at around where male voices come in and whispers, but I had a cousin who could hear a piece of music one time and then play it by ear. It is definetly a gift. If this class is important to you, there are ways to learn to cope with stimula you find annoying.
