Hello Simone, Your story reminds me of the scientist Dr Tesla. He was extremely sensitive in his hearing and at a certain moment could hear a fly land on the table. 'Real' sounds were unbearable for him. In any case, I find it totally ridiculous that trained doctors prescribe downers for highly sensitive people. It shows how much they actually 'know'. In your case I think it is not a mechanical fault but a nerve/sensitivity condition. One must think clearly and logically. If your hearing is over sensitive, you must take care not to 'hear' to much. Ear plugs are therefor a must in the first place, like a bandage on an open wound. Secondly, I would go to a real good and well known meditation center. Not necessarily to become religious but to train your body and brain to 1 'get into silence' 2 to learn how to block sound 3 to learn to recondition and improve your nerve system 4 to get better equipped for 'normal' daily life. friendly greetings Antares, Amsterdam, Holland where music is, no harm can be
