I know they are all different, but disliking loud volumes is a feature of autism, yet many talk constantly, many scream and wail and many even listen to very loud music that I would find irritating, yet they complain about fireworks, thunder, balloons popping etc.
Anyone have any ideas about this?

One key feature of the Autistic mind is the desire for predictability. .
Fireworks, thunder, balloons popping are all unpredictable sounds. When a child is watching an episode of Barney they've seen before, they know exactly when they are going to hear what sounds. If they have control over the remote, the have control over the volume. If I would let her, my niece would have the radio on, The TV on & an electronic toy making noise held right up to her ear. Volume is definatey not the issue for her.
Autistic children may also have a keener sense of hearing in many ways. So sounds which you may be unaware of (the neighbor's weedeater for example) may sound like fingernails on a chalk board to them. In this case, it is not as much how loud the sound is, but the pitch.

Well, I may be autistic, likely in the form of Aspergers. What I can tell you is that I dislike loud noises, especially startling ones, in part because I am worried about my ears, but also because I am not mentally prepared for them. If I am listening to music, I have focused myself to hearing the highs and lows. I know what is coming and I am prepared to be enveloped in it. But if others are loud and I am unprepared, then it is a source of irratation. Also, while my hearing is not the greatest, I am sensitive to vibrations. They go right into my head and thump through my brain. I do have a temper, so I can be quite loud. I would assume, then, that I am not as bothered by the sound because it travels to me ears differently. I am not sure if the average person can hear the bass of their own voice. I don't hear a subwoofers vibration from my voice. Subwoofers usually annoy me.

there's a wide distinction between what the owner has a suitable to do and what's occurring to actual take position. It likely will come each of how right down to guidelines on your locale and precedents that were set on your section. powerful, the owner can attempt to evict you, and he likely does no longer opt for to provide you previously word, yet if you're taking them to courtroom, the opt for will maximum likely brush off the case, till finally the owner has a larger compelling argument for evicting you. as an celebration, in case you've not paid employ for 3 months then you definately definately will be evicted and likewise you truly haven't any safe practices. on different hand, I absolutely have seen a case the placement it change into stated contained in the living house contract that there have been easily no pets allowed, and the owner tried to evict the tenant (through the indisputable fact that that they had a presented in a puppy some months after transferring in) yet mutually because the case went to courtroom, the opt for requested if the puppy has now been bumped on and stale account that it were the owner change into no longer waiting to evict, so that you do have some rights and in case you opt for to take criminal action (which will nicely be intense priced - no longer lots monetarily yet quite an funding in time spent, so so that you'll weigh your recommendations), you likely is easily no longer evicted actual because your infant is making "noise." with slightly of fulfillment the owner has no longer been "structure" a case detrimental to you for eviction, and likewise you get a lenient opt for. reliable fulfillment.

Loud, startling noises are what most autistic persons dislike. Each is different.

the make noise themselves to drown out the other noises. their brians have issues with information....i mean, they get a LOT of it, even if they are hearing exactally what u and me are hearing, its turned into more and its extremely overwhelming to them. so they have to drown it out by making their own sounds

I think it is their way of trying to block it out. When my 4 yr old knows I'm going to tell him it's time to get ready for bed, he starts loudly saying "la,la,la, I can't hear you". Same concept.
Just my opinion, though.

Hearing and vocalizing are two different things.
