What helps you with noise sensitivity?
I've been really struggling with sensory issues around sound. Noises just seem so overwhelming, especially if someone is talking to me on the phone or when someone is eating around me. Can anyone relate, or does anyone know if there is anything to help - maybe subtle earplugs? Or just anything that works for you?
Thank you!

Earplugs worked best for me. Some people headphones work better. Everyone is different
Loops/Vibes. Still working on finding something. This (noise sensitivity) is one of the things I hate abt autism the most!
@StressedGirl Haha, I was thinking this was a shame this person felt like this! Related I am this member, lol! ;) What a moment
Loops/Vibes are earplugs.
I have noise cancelling headphones
They have three settings: noise cancelling (strong), ambient sound (medium) and nothing (weak).
I often play music and mostly use neither noise cancelling nor ambient sound control, since the song and the natural noise barrier of the will block out the most.
They're really comfortable and adjustable, when I'm not listening to music I wear them around my neck, so on top of that they're fashionable.
I can't really help withthe phone problem excrpt for getting a better call quality, but the headphones are useful for surrounding noises. I always wear them in the cafeteria when I have to eat.
Hope that helped! 🐚✨️
Hey, I use flare calmer earbuds! they allow you to still hear, but take the sharpness away (:
Seeing as I'm late replying to this, have you found anything that works for you?

Things such as loop ear buds or wireless noise councelling headphones even like plug in headphones can sometimes help or like airpods can help is well
Honestly, I get that and I get that too and I didn’t use a pair of headphones. I like their headphones that go over my head because I don’t know. I don’t like the feeling of like earphones
Hi,
Loop earplugs work well for me. I have the ones that can switch between 3 different settings. I forget the name of the version they are.

Hi! I like to use headphones, with low music on to help keep the sensory issues at bay. It doesn’t always work, but for the times it does its greatly helpful.
