Any ideas for finding a quiet home

    Given you understandably do not wish to move to another area, I cannot think of an idea for finding a quiet home. The only ways to find a truly quiet home are soundproofing and living in a remote area.

    Regarding being woken up, have you tried ear plugs? I have a pair of noise-cancelling headphones and a pair of ear defenders which both work very well. I am considering buying ear plugs as I cannot sleep in the headphones or ear defenders.

    Take a look at the British Snoring & Sleep Apnoea Association website (https://www.britishsnoring.co.uk/shop/ear_plugs.php) and the Alpine range (https://www.alpinehearingprotection.co.uk/earplugs/).

    The Ultimate Guide to Wearing (and Choosing) Ear Plugs (and ear defenders) web page (www.everydayhearing.com/.../) is worth a read.

    Until it is accepted that people with autism require support such as quieter environments nothing will be done. Anyone with mental health problems and hidden disabilities are, unfortunately, at best third-class citizens in the eyes of society.
