Question

Answer 1

this isn't claustrophobia, thats when u r in a tight spot, like u have no room to move or anythign and u feel trapped

i don't know what u have tho, sorry how u find out tho

Answer 2

...You need to see your doctor about possible anxiety disorder or panic attacks.  Increased hearing is part of the fight or flight reaction that misfires in panic disorder.  Being overwhelmed with sounds and not understanding why would make anyone feel anxious and fearful.
