That and people like me are very paranoid with sounds. I hear things and my mind irrationally wonders to everything it can. I'm the same way if something brings awareness to the fact that I'm in a big house by myself in absolute silence; I start hearing crap. If I keep occupied, then I'm fine. If my mind starts wandering and getting all paranoid, it sucks. Also if I am walking by myself near very dark woods. My mind knows that absolutely nothing is going to happen, that everything is fine, but that doesn't stop me from getting nervous if (and only if) my mind happens to think up something freaky. Because then no matter what you TRY to think about, the mind will focus on it and keep making it worse and worse.
