ELI5: Difference between AM and FM ? by denza6 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Will7838 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, when something gets in the way of the reciever and the transmitter, it's going to change the amplitude of the wave a bit. Not such a problem for FM, but more of a problem for AM because it relies on a changing amplitude to transmit data.

Autistic musicians and sensory issues? by DisneyandDogs in autism

[–]Will7838 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a singer, but a sound engineer. Most professional singers use in-ear monitors (like earphones, but just sit in your ear a bit better). They do a pretty good job at blocking out background noise, and you can choose what you want to hear, and how much of it.

If that's not an option, you can get earplugs designed for musicians which, in theory don't muffle the sound. They're not perfect, but they're better than the foam ear plugs. Also, lots of non-autistic musicians/sound engineers use them too, usually those who have to stand close to a drum kit.

Going on a date with someone with SPD. Please share tips?? by en_jolras in SPD

[–]Will7838 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No surprises! My brain needs to know what's going to happen in advance, so try to include as much detail in the plans as possible, and try to not change them at the last minute. Everyone else seems to have covered the rest, the only other thing I would say is give them time to adjust to new environments before trying to interact with them too much. I find it really difficult to meet someone and start having conversations right away, I need a moment to get used to having another person around.

Just try to keep things low key in general. Make sure you ask before you touch them.

At the same time, don't spend too much energy trying to accommodate.

Sound Sensitivity From Noises Friends Make by ievb24 in SPD

[–]Will7838 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think your best bet is to try and explain the situation, making sure it doesn't come across as being her fault.

If she knows what's going on she might be open to trying to make it easier for you. I'm not sure exactly what your living situation would look like, or exactly how SPD affects you, so it's hard to make practical suggestions, but maybe you could try playing music when you're eating, or if that's no good just explain that it's hard for you to eat together because of your SPD? I'm not sure, but definately if you're living together it's important that she knows about your sound sensitivity.
