It's amazing you didn't collapse!! 😱 You are right, there is no reason for the volume to be crazy loud. Not only does it prevent many from being able to enjoy a movie, but volumes at that level can cause permanent hearing loss and even tinnitus, which is an awful and sometimes dibilitating affliction. This might be worth creating a petition for. Perhaps a local Foggy follower could champion that?<br />My noise sensitivities are bad right now - the worst they've ever been. I can't even manage sitting in church during the worship portion. It causes a violent reaction that's difficult to explain... It's like a panic attack wrapped up in crazy pain and debilitating brain fog. It's like being physically assaulted, and leaves me in an uncontrollable sobbing mess. It's happened to me in public, at the dentist's office, and other public places. I only share this so that others who are also experiencing this will know that they aren't going crazy. People more than likely will treat us like we are (a common reaction - sometimes even from people who know us). But, this is a physical response due to very real stimuli on an already overloaded nervous system.<br />So take good care of yourself Sally. Please rest and let your body recover from this. ❤️❤️❤️❤️Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08100585879566386082noreply@blogger.com
