Can anyone else really feel when the atmospheric pressure drops? I tell my friends and they think i'm crazy. Birds seem louder, all noises are amplified, and I can really feel the pressure change in the air. I was just wondering if it's an aspie thing..

I am super sensitive to changes in weather, air pressure, sunlight, and even moon phases. This morning the air was foggy and heavy, and I felt anxious. Then the sun came out, and I feel happy. My emotional state is hugely affected by these things, and it's just a fact of life for me.

I'm also very sensitive to any changes in weather - barometric pressure, day/night, temperature, humidity. I also notice that I have increased sensitivity to light and sound when the baro pressure changes.

The increase in sound levels is due to the change in pressure on the ear drum.

Yes! And I forgot to mention that changing altitude has the same effect - it seems to be much harder on me than on most other people I know.
