I get anxious with noise around, especially TV. My brain generates plenty of stimuli all on its own, no need to add more ;)

I have the opposite problem and need some background noise in order to stay focused. That said, I can't use TV as background noise unless it is something I have zero interest in. The visual component is too distracting, so I tend to use music instead.

Brains are weird.
