Struggling with noise sensitivity

73074

I have been struggling with noise sensitivity since a really young age and this affects me in daily life. I have tried numerous different noise cancellation headphones however I cannot sit in the same room as someone eating. I can’t stand sitting in a room when there’s a clock in it. I was wondering if anyone else experiences this and has found effective ways to deal with it.
thank you.

  • I do have noise sensitivity and I’m sorry you are finding it tough. I find rather than blocking the sound out try to distract by listening to music or some sounds you find soothing, essentially put in some air pods and drown out the annoying sound. 
    As Uno said noise for me is okay if I’m the one creating it. I wonder because you know and expect the noise it’s acceptable but when it’s from another source there’s no control over it.
