small noises
I don't know why, but small noises (such as people smacking their lips when they eat, or someone breathing heavily) make me really annoyed. I can't talk to anyone if they are doing something like that, because I can't concentrate. Can someone tell me what's going on??

I have OCD. Don't listen to the other people who are saying it could be OCD; it's very common to get pissed at people for making noises. Besides, most people have a few OCD symptoms, so I urge you not to get medicated.
Other than that, you can jokingly tell them it bothers you. Most people (especially girls) get really pissed about smacking. It all depends on how you're raised too.
It just sounds like a pet peeve. I have the same one and my best friend is a horrible smacker.
You're not alone ;)

Like others have said, you may have OCD, but I think that is a little extreme. Are you stressed or upset? When I get overtired or stressed I find that these things bother me as well. For a week you should try getting 8-10 hours of sleep a night, going for a fast walk/slow jog for 30 minutes a day and eating nutritious food. This should relieve you of everyday stress and you may find that those little things are not a problem for you.
If this does not help, you may have OCD which you can search on google to find out what it is all about. Just type in OCD and you should get the results you are looking for.
Finally, you may want to politely ask the person who is smacking their lips (or any other annoying behaviours) to stop. If there is a person (or people) in particular who are doing this, you may not be annoying by the actions or sounds, but by the person themself. Perhaps you are spending too much time with them and their actions are getting on your nerves. This can happen even if you love the person, barely know them or anything in between.
Also, when you feel yourself getting annoying ask for a moment, and just breathe deeply. Take in a breath, count to four then exhale. This should relieve stress and you will be able to concentrate on the conversation better. Repeat this as many times as necessary.
Something of this should work for you, if not feel free to ask me for alternatives and I will do my best to help you with this.
Good luck :)

you might have O.C.D (obsessice complusive disorder) There`s nothing wrong with that, it just means little things bother you. Actually i think i might have that too, and my friend has it, but it doesn`t mean theres anything wrong with you. I get annoyed by people doing that too. Don`t worry, you might not even have it. People with O.C.D get annoyed by every little thing, like if they see something on the floor they have to pick it up, and if they don`t they`ll go back to pick it up. That`s how i am.

Nothing's going on. lol that stuff annoys me too. Just try your best to ignore it and try to still talk to them otherwise they'll think you're a bitch

I am sound sensitive too. Over the years I have learned to ignore people noises, but there are some things that I just can't block out. A physiciatrist has a book on cd out about people like us. She calls us "intuitive empaths" meaning we tune in to the small things about people and can feel the positive or negative energy they project. It's all very interesting. At least after listening to her CD I know why I am over sensitive to sound, lights, and smells. Beleive it or not, a lot of people are this same way. Just try to project a peaceful image in your mind while confronted with people that do these annoying things..and see if that helps.

i've had the problem with the eating thing & believe it or not, a lot of people do. it would be extremely rude to say something, especially if you aren't friends with that person. the best thing to do would be to get over it. yes people are going to do it & some won't even care if it bothers you. you'll have to find another way to concentrate so that it doesn't bother you. basically they're juss bad habits. if it's really bad, maybe you can just move, think of someone else, talk to someone, or sing a song in your head. sometimes that stuff helps. if it's seriously really bad, it wouldn't be a bad idea to talk to a physcologist about it. if not, you'll have to learn how to get over it by yourself.
-hope that helped!♥
