FWIW, we tested my DD for CAPD for similar issues (in particular, she spaced out/got distracted in noisy places, hated loud sounds, had trouble hearing directions in crowds, had been labeled a daydreamer, and sometimes struggled with multi-part directions) and she aced the test--passed it with flying colors. So whatever her issues are (may be ASD, anxiety, or ADHD), it looked to us like CAPD at the time, but was not. She was tested at a highly regarded university clinic that does many of these assessments. FWIW, she also outgrew some of this stuff. Fire drills used to be a real problem, for instance, but she's acclimated.
