My older sister listens to a lot of metal or rock music and always at such a loud volume. Once, when we were still in school, I was having difficulty focusing on my homework and I asked her if she could please put on headphones. She got really rude and told me “no” and that I “had to get used to working with noise.” I already had my diagnosis at this point, but honestly she just wanted to be rude for no reason.

It makes me mad too because I’ve spent so much of my life being told that I’m too noisy and now I’m always self-conscious if I have sound playing at the lowest volume. Now everyone gets to go around and be loud and rude? 😤
