Does loud noise increase your anxiety?

Question

I always feel like loud noises worsen my anxiety. I’m just curious if other people feel this way too.

Answer

Yes. Certain sounds in particular, though. Fire alarms, sirens, slamming doors, yelling. Those are biggies for me.🤷‍♀️

Answer

I can’t handle loud voices or any public situation with loud noises. 
I’ve had anxiety attacks at football games and at a friends house when people started yelling

Answer

Yes. And people arguing makes me really upset. They can be three houses down but if I hear people argue I feel the negativity in their voices and they might as well be yelling right at me. 😰

Answer

Yesss! Loud crowds of people or just loud people that I don’t know in close vicinity of me period puts me on edge. I like to know my surroundings and I feel like if it gets too loud and I can’t hear what’s coming at me, then I’m in danger. I get so anxious my body stiffens, it feels like I forget how to walk normally, and I fidget uncontrollably or when I’m trying not to look at someone my eyes just keep finding their way to the persons face and then I’m labeled a weirdo who can’t stop awkwardly staring 🤦🏾‍♀️🤣. Happens damn near everyday
