ok serious request for advice, please!!! i have struggled with noise sensitivity for most of my life but the last year or so it seems to be getting even worse. ANY suggestions for practical or coping strategies to help me deal with this would be IMMENSELY appreciated.
more info: i live in a relatively quiet house and area but am still struggling every single day to cope with noise. the sounds of my family slamming doors and cabinets, moving around plates and utensils in the kitchen, and even the click of the mechanisms any time a door is opened in my house are SO incredibly loud to me that it is startling and physically painful every time. i am usually in my room with the door closed and fan on at all times and everything is STILL so loud. i have to sleep with earplugs in even though it hurts my ears because every sound wakes me up, and even with them in i can’t sleep if someone is using the washing machine or other devices in the house. i bought expensive noise-cancelling earphones which do help, but even with them on the noises are loud. more people are home right now for thanksgiving and i don’t know how i’m going to deal with it without melting down completely.
please please please, leave any suggestions or resources you can think of. options for soundproofing, comfortable ear plugs, best coping techniques, how to try to talk to my family about this kind of thing, anything at all.
soundproofing foam is just bardic insulation
Noise Is All around Us—and It’s Affecting You More than You Think
During the pandemic, our noise levels dropped and the world changed. Should we fight for more quiet?
Oiamo would certainly welcome meaningful policy change at whatever level, but more than that, he would like us to think about city soundscapes differently. “It’s not just about reducing noise but also recognizing that sound is a really important part of human experience. We care a lot about things looking nice. Why don’t we care about things sounding nice?”

Ben Solo caught me in the break room during lunch and gave me a stern talking to today. He apparently did NOT care for the "mattress fix" I used to soundproof his quarters. He said if I set out to do a job, I should do it correctly or not at all.
I told him only a Sith deals in absolutes.
Now he's twice as mad at me, but it was totally worth it for the "Ooh! Sick burn!" I heard from Hux who was sipping his coffee at the next table over.
aye anyone know some tips on sound proofing a room? my house has thin walls and my family DOES NOT want to hear me playing electric guitar with an amp throughout the day. i know it won’t block out all sound, but any bit helps.
