There are several sounds I cannot stand, such as the sound of someone coughing. That sound is harsh on my brain. (I said brain because with CI's you hear with your brain, or it feels like you hear with your brains than ears, anyway). I can't stand the sound of the toilet flushing...that sound is overwhelming. Oh, and the phone. It goes riiiiiing.....riiiiiing.....riiiiing. It irritates and overwhelms my brain, to the point where I have turned the telephone's ringer off. I don't use the telephone, it is my fiance's. He keeps it here so that he can call his grandfather to come pick him up when he spends the night here (My fiance is severe-profound deaf, but can speak on the phone with his hearing aids on, with relatives and family only (familiar voices only). Hmmm, what other sounds? Oh, I do not like the sound of cars and other vehicles at all, they are simply too overwhelming for my poor brain. I sometimes do not like the sounds of some people's voices sometimes. Sometimes they sound harsh to me.
But I like most other sounds, though.
