Can specific sounds make you FEEL better?

[Georgiagirl88]

I don't know that sounds can help me avoid a seizure, (I am still learning about my seizures) but sounds do make me feel better. When I was at the beach in April..just before my Mom got sick and she died, I went out to the ocean early in the mornings and just listened to the sound of the seagulls and waves. What a peaceful sound. So beautiful! I love the sound of birds in the early morning. Children laughing. My cats purring/meowing(sometimes) My one big kitty can be a loud pest! Ha! I really love thunder/rain and windy days and nights. And then the absence of sound when it snows..when it is very quiet, yet coming down hard. It is a peaceful feeling.

I used to live by the ocean & went to sleep to the sound of the waves so I can relate to Georgias experience.

I've been getting insomnia but the last 3 days I've had my fountain going & have not only slept well but have had a slight drop in the number of seizures (it's only been a few days so we'll see if it continues).

string's John Dowland album?

It sounds like it was all done on guitar, violin or cello.

so.......but for me, there are a variety of sounds that it can be, and it depends on the day and what is going on. If I have a migraine going on, it darn well better be a QUIET sound, or look out!

As of late, I have noticed, I can't tolerate a lot of loud noises for LONG periods of time--as in 12 hours a day. That's just too much for me. I don't know what's changed....
