Sensitive hearing problem

Sandy A
over 7 years ago

My ASD daughter gets very disturbed when people are talking downstairs, and she is in her bedroom upstairs. She finds the (random) noise intolerable, even if we try to talk quietly. It becomes a question of upsetting her, versus being silent all the time!

Has anyone any suggestions on what we could do? Noise cancelling headphones have been tried, but I think we got the wrong model.

Thanks for any replies.

    Thanks for the advice so far. Keep it coming!

    I think it's the particular type of noise done in conversation, along with the unpredictability that's the problem.

    How would I go about getting an occupational therapist? Would the NHS be up for doing it?
