What Causes Fear While Hearing Certain Noise?

Sometimes when I hear a certain noise, (its mostly the beep sound my toaster makes) I start feeling scared, paranoid or just like something bads gonna happen, sometimes the noise brings back the memory of when I had my first seizure and I feel like I do after a seizure. I have ADD, ADHD and epilepsy in case that has anything to do with it

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I think this is a new development for you. With anxiety disorders, such fear is common. Anxiety disorder patients slowly develop irritation towards noises and in due course the irritation makes them obsessive towards noises. Some specific noise irritation takes up center stage of the obsession and they feel such noises. There is nothing to worry. This will be there for some months and slowly disappear. You will need Cognitive Therapy. Consult a psychologist.

If you still need my assistance in this regard, please use this link. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Please remember to describe the whole problem with full detail.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
