Well I know the first thing that started it was my father tapping and he was horrifically abusive to me. I always thought that may be an important connection.

Then repetitive sounds might have been "anchored" with the bad feelings associated with abuse. It's re-programmable for sure.

There are few recorded cases, but cognitive behavioural therapy might be a good option to look into. It's already a huge step forward to be aware of a connection like that.
