Not just on a Sunday morning but if you could have it your way all the time, how much outside noise (or not) would be around you?

I can literally sleep if a bomb drops, not a big fan of people playing music loudly in their gardens unless it is a party or something, luckily we are fairly lucky in that respect, like listening to the radio when I am working, but also pretty happy to sit in silence

Not much.
It can be exhausting. |

I don’t mind loudness so long as it serves some sort of purpose of functionality (that probably sounds more mechanical on paper than I actually mean it to). You can’t tell people to shut up/pipe down in Soho on a Saturday night or at any kind of party and that’s okay because I get energised from both noise and silence so when I put myself in those situations I get what I need and it’s not too taxing (not that I’m ever going to be the absolutely-biggest lover of ultra-loud noise). But when it’s at home I’m somewhere between average and quiet and it can be hard striking that balance when you live with people who are louder round-the-clock but so long as there’s some sort of decent interpersonal connection I can tolerate it without wanting to tear my hair out (just about).
Like I said I’m no lover of non-anthropomorphic dogs and that’s because of how loud and incessant their barking is. It’s not great white noise in the early a.m. when you’re trying to sleep or listen to a Podcast.

Can you handle voluntary high-stimulation environments (bars, clubs) or would you just rather avoid loud places altogether?

Noisy kids in McDonalds are almost unbearable.

I can handle noise for the most part.
Although I've grown to hate Trains.

I don't like loud noise unless it's music I like, then I like the volume up.

Are you still able to enjoy loud bars (which may not necessarily be playing the music you per se really like) or would you rather just avoid higher-stimulation environments like that?

I am deaf in one ear so some tones are annoying but generally if its music that's pleasing to me then I'm ok but some music I hear is really grating especially when loud.

Is there a certain type of music that’s likely to grate on you if you don’t mind me asking?

Like I said I don’t mind a bit of extra noise-stimulation but I definitely agree with you about the sounds of nature being more bearable on full-blast than a lot of people’s voices. People who speak really loudly just for the sake of talking really irritate me.

I don't mind noise....I have music on pretty much all the time when I'm at home. I rarely put the TV on before 9. What I can't stand though is more than one noise source. If I'm watching or listening to something and I can hear my son's phone on you tube or I can hear the tv over the radio if I'm in the kitchen it bugs the life out of me.

I’m on the spectrum ..
I’m hypersensitive to noise / noises .. so loud , sudden noises basically scare the life out of me and leave me shaken for a while. The complication with all this is that because I have such good hearing I cannot abide silence as then the quieter extraneous noises ( however quiet they are ) drive me absolutely crazy as they are so distracting so when I move around the house I have music or the radio on in every room ..

Trains are fine with me (I don’t even notice the sound) but motorcycles do my head in. Very annoying.
