I’ve been diagnosed with ADHD, and I’ve noticed that I sometimes get sensory overload, when my kid (5, also neurodivergent) starts humming, or other loud conversations etc, I get physical pain from the sustain loud (or just high level) noise. I’ve been using my AirPod Pro with no music with just noise cancelling to help. Anyone else in a similar situation? What do you do to help?

    It could be a form of hyperacusis. Noising canceling headphones help. Also there is an earplug for concerts called vibes that I found in Amazon. You can still hear people talk, they are discreet, and help with my auditory discomfort.
