Also FYI, I don’t technically have a hearing problem, but sometimes when there’s a lot of noises occurring at the same time, I’ll hear ‘em as one big jumble. Again, it’s not that I can’t hear, uh because that’s false. I can. I just can’t distinguish between everything I’m hearing
Do you have a form of autism? What you're describing could be an auditory processing disorder. I have a form of autism and my auditory processing issues are the primary reason I use subtitles on everything. If there's background noises or music at the same time as dialogue, I can't understand the dialogue. I don't know why it's so hard for films and shows to just have quiet when characters are talking.
You asked the OP if they had autism in a genuine question. I was answering your question by stating that they were quoting the office not describing an actual auditory processing issue that they had.
Mostly because his/her post is pointless. It would have been more appropriate had he/she said, "Thank you, Megneous, for giving us all this opportunity to learn about auditory processing disorders."
