[QUOTE="Star*, post: 424840, member: 4964"] Okay - I gotta go with her on the rat noise. I have for no rhyme or reason hyper sensitivity to sound. I wish I could tell you what the triggers are, but it's the dangedest thing. When it hits me? I can't control it. It just makes me irritable. My Mom suspects allergies. She could be right. I've been like this most of my life. When I had my rats some days their little noises didn't bug me; then other days the sounds they made? Made me insane to the point where I'd have to take the Wodent Wheel out of Jwi's cage and set it on the ground or shut the door, and we did end up putting them in the spare room. I'd be in the computer and - well needless to say it happens. So I would guess add a dose of teen hormones on top of that? Lucky You! (not) I did buy a pair of noise cancelling headphones from Staples, but Mom saw them and before I could try them -*poof* gone. lol Maybe those would help her? You know what I was thinking? This may sound kinda out there - but she seemed to be an artistic kind of young lady to me when we met. They now make a paint that you paint on and then you can use Dry Erase markers on the wall. You can get Dry erase markers in really cool colors now - even metalics and dark colors. Maybe when she gets like this instead of just shutting down if she had a wall she could draw on? Or better yet - they have black board paint - why not paint her walls BLACK blackboard - and then let her get some chalk glow in the dark chalk with a black light? She could do all kinds of interesting things. Just a thought. Hugs [/QUOTE]
