Hating to wear headphones while family eats

I feel that, but it’s not your fault. Sensory issues are very real and can be very distressing. If they don’t make an effort to understand then that’s their problem.

Same i used to feel like that, but at this point I don't care if my family is offended whenever I pit my headphones in, at times they even eat louder to make fun of me or irritate me, or they don't even try to understand how their noises are really a headache to me, they just don't care.

I’m sorry, try to reiterate that you enjoy their company so much you want to sit and endure a physical sensory issue that hurts you. I wish people could be more understanding, try to make plans without food with relatives you have common interests with and just say hey”people have they’re things like nails on a chalk board.” Hopefully they understand
