Default Re: Noises drive me crazy - Soft Sound Sensitivity Syndrome

I can't go to fairly busy movies because of what you described. If I can't sit far enough away from people that I can't hear their random noises, I can't watch the movie. Hearing someone crinkling plastic while they dig into a bag of candy drives me insane the most. If someone is constantly sniffling (like from allergies or a cold), or feels the need to whisper to his/her friends, I totally lose focus on the movie because I get so tense. I can only go to popular movies during non-busy screenings (like a weekday afternoon), or I have to wait until the movie is almost out of theatres and the crowds have thinned out to see it. It sucks.
