Sounds make me feel things, and I can’t make it stop.

I’m one of those people who can’t even watch the trailers for horror films because they are just too intense. On my late night YouTube sessions I would dread the unexpected ad for a a horror film. This lead to the development of a reflex action where I’d hit the mute button. That’s when I realised I was JUST scared of the soundtrack and I could watch as much gruesome horror as I liked as long as there was no classic heavy breathing or incessant ringing. When I’m walking around at night in the dark, to avoid the scary thoughts, I pretend I’m in a cheery musical where it would not be logically possible for me to get attacked by a masked demon.
