Re: Living with other people makes me unhappy and I think it's a serious problem
My family sounds exactly the same on paper. 3 other people, 2 cats and a dog. I love them to bits, and I didn't have issues quite as bad as you. My parents are both quiet people. My little brother, not so much. I don't know when it got bad, exactly, but sometimes the sound of his TV through the wall would drive me insane. I would get angry as fuck, couldn't sit still, just wanted to rage, throw shit and pound on crap. Every time I brought it up with anyone it was "you have to get over it" which pissed me off more because NO SHIT I KNOW THAT. It followed me into college (or started when I was in college, IDK) and to my aunt's house. She wasn't the issue, since the house is HUGE and it was just me and her, but there was a neighbor who played loud music in the garage and it just pushed my buttons.
Well, long story short, after I got put on anxiety/depression medication (for unrelated reasons. Chest pains, actually. Who fucking knew?), the sounds still annoy me but I don't turn into a raging ball of hatred anymore.
So yeah, I'd suggest seeing someone about it.
Edit for full disclosure: But I still live alone now. It's a lot less stressful when you're in control of all the messes and have nobody to blame but yourself. Granted, it's not from my anxiety or whatever, but more because I needed to give a cat a home and live closer to work. Still. It felt important to say this.
