I have it and poor easy child has it...hers is way worse than mine. She becomes completely unhinged when anyone is chewing gum...even if their mouth is clamped closed. She can imagine what sounds like and drives her nuts. I've made people spit out their gum or hard candy before getting in my car. I've always been insane about those little seemingly invisible noises. My mother rubbing her feet together, people just relaxing and moving their feet drives me absolutely bonkers. I was like a pretzel at times to find ways of blocking my view of her feet. My sister chews like a cow, on purpose around me, I don't eat with her at all anymore. slurping of the coffee, gum chewing, eating in general, especially soups and cereals, loud swallowing and breathing .... Yep that's me!
You can imagine just how much more annoying difficult child's tics were for us...her sniffling tic, clearing the throat tic, repeated the same phrase all day and night for weeks or singing the same danged jingle from a tv commercial, yeah, good times for all!
Don't I sound like a good time? Lololol. Thanks, Janet for giving me a label...I'm going to let easy child know there's a name for that!
