In some ways, my vestibular hyperacusis is sort of like synesthsia because sound is being perceived as motion.

(I also have actual synesthesia where I smell visual inputs.)

"While symptoms of cochlear hyperacusis range from ear discomfort at normal sounds to panic reactions at soft sound"

Yeah certain sounds really really hurt.
