Is this a "thing"?

I've noticed as I've got older (45 now) that I'm getting less tolerant of noises 😕

Repetitive or certain pitched sounds really grind on my nerves and sometimes hurts.

Am I just turning into a bad tempered old crow? 😁

Are there any good cheaper noise cancelling headphones?

Yes noises annoy me too, certain sound and even voices of actors/actresses seem to grate. Certain noises I love like birds singing a good song or my doggy ‘talking’!

Ha, this is me ! I’m slightly older than you & find myself alot less tolerant of noises these days / we were out shopping today & a child was having a tantrum - proper screaming - it went straight thru me ! It never used to bother me !

I know I am lol

Sorry, forgot about my eye (another getting old thing ) I got some eye drops and after a couple days it got better.
Think I just got a good clump from the water jet on that side. All ok now xx

I’ve acquired tinnitus from somewhere and it drives me nuts when it’s loud. Other times I hardly notice it.

I can’t stand screeching children in public. Not the child but just the sound !

Yeah that's one of the worst ones but didn't want to say it.
Some crying is ok but the proper high pitched screech really hurts.
