Struggling with Sound Sensitivity

Does anyone else struggle with sound sensitivity? The main sounds I struggle with are: plastic bags, dishes clanking together, loud music I don’t choose or control, and people speaking loud.

Just like @keroppii said, sensory sensitivity is very common in neruodivergent conditions, especially ASD and ADHD! I have visual sensitivity (sensitive to bright lights/lights of certain colors, visual activity) and auditory sensitivity like you. The sounds I can't stand are of dishes against each other/silverware against dishes, people eating, and crowd noises

Hyper and hypo sensory is common with adhd! I get visual and audio overload sometimes but I’m also looking into ASD diagnosis
