[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 533589, member: 84"] I've had this issue. Heavy metal music will drive me to the brink of insanity within just a few minutes, certain other types of music has the same effect. I think it's the tones in the music, or at least some of them that trigger it. A whiny child is another one, it's the sound of the whine itself.........and yes some are far worse than others. Katies as a child made me have to make her leave the room so I didn't get physical with her. Many of Travis' verbal tics would drive me crazy......and I mean the furious type of crazy, so I taught him to go to his room with verbal tics. The non verbal ones didn't seem to phase me. There were certain tones under the age of 6 that would set Travis into what I call autistic zoning out, where he truly went off into his own world and you could not reach him regardless of stimuli until the sound stopped. I actually have this caught on video tape. He got a police car for xmas at age 3 and it's siren worked. If the siren was set off, travis would Zone. When it stopped you can see him snapping out of it. It didn't take me long to make that car disappear. If he did it older than age 6 I really haven't noticed much........but then at age 13 he was diagnosed with absence seizures, so some of them could have actually been the zoning out thing........probably were since some could last 45 mins or more. There were also times when it would trigger him to rage as well. And I've seen this with Alex too. [/QUOTE]
