Some people feel loud noises more because their ears and brains are extra sensitive. Imagine your friend has a super strong hearing alarm that goes off when sounds get too big, while you just hear it like normal. That's why they might cover their ears or even get scared when you're just having fun at the party.
Examples
- At a concert, one person enjoys the music while another hides under their seat from the sound.
- Your friend flinches when you laugh loudly at dinner, but you just think it's funny.
- A loud alarm clock wakes up your sibling instantly but only makes you half-awake.
