:I don't know if its a five thing but I am extremely noise sensitive. Loud or discordant noise can really hurt my ears. Unexpected banging can do it too. I've heard that this indicates a lack of some nutrient, but I get them all and my mother's family and sister all have the same problem with noise but wouldn't miss a vital nutrient either; they are all aware of nutrition and keep in shape. Nines and ones tend to prevail on that side.

However, my father's sixish family are known for letting themselves go and don't pay much if any attention to vitamins or diet. Noise never bothered them.

Feeling a strong desire to pull away to work things out.. now is that really withdrawl? I don't think so. Two things: As a non-verbal thinker it is impossible for me to process complex thoughts in the presense of noise clutter. I have a difficult enough time establishing a thought rhythm. It is about processing... my brain needs time to make images verbal... that's hardwiring that reinforces introversion. I also receive a great deal of energy from doing visual 'puzzles' and logic problems. Why? I think because it helps my brain gain clarity as well but it shuts down my verbal capacity nearly completely. Sometimes after painting I can barely form cohesive sentences. I think introversion is commonly misunderstood because of the focus on 'shyness'. Introversion is often seen as something that inhibits people or blocks them from their desires... it's fear and shyness that do that... which are not necessarily introverted traits.
