oh yeah, my audio processing was ~normal as a teenager, excruciatingly sensitive in my 20s, and I have now worked it down to merely very-high-normal. Touch also seems more intense for me than for other people. I think of my visual sensitivity as normal but no one seems to enjoy greyscale on their screens as much as I do so maybe I’m underestimating that too..
That seems… to match my experience more or less. Thank you for sharing you perspective!
I am curious if you see yourself as someone with higher sensory processing sensitive that average (if you find sort of distinction useful).
