| Sandpoint, I'm so glad to hear you won your case; I was posting on your thread a while a back when you were having terrible problems with those neighbors. What happens now that you've won -- are the neighbors going to be held to complying and modifying their behavior? I hope so, though it's a diffi... |

| I have a pair of Flareaudio Aluminium Isolate ear plugs and they are excellent. I couldn't afford the Titanium ones, but I'm not sure they would be much better than the ones I have. They are visible, but as everybody where I work knows I have a diagnosis then that isn't a problem for me. https://ww... |

| Sirens don't entirely freak me out unless it's close by. However, things like doors being slammed (or closed loudly) , fire alarms, and motorcycles make me quite distressed. Also, the skype ringing noise. That one is probably the worst for me. :oops: I agree, doors slamming are the devil... Hate it... |

| Deliberately making a noise to upset a little autistic child, what insensitive a***holes. Sorry, I just felt wound up when I read that. Why are some people so immature and nasty? I hope you get that dealt with soon. It's not fair on you or your daughter. Hugs. Highly insensitive, I agree! ............ |
