Hello there, @stlouisgmajenn ! I have been wondering if I should be wearing some sort of headgear. Noise reducing headphones. I have such sensitive hearing, such sensitive skin, I would think the headphones would make a huge difference. Have you ever tried them? If you or anyone else have tried them, and they worked, I would love to hear about your experience.

I love being alone in my quiet. Then I need my people. Them I need my quiet. And on and on it goes.

It could be worse, I suppose! Ta for now,

MamacitaJane

@mamacita My stepson's son is on the autism spectrum. Sometimes when they go out, the youngster wears a set of headphones designed to minimize the stimulation of too much going on around him. As his mom is a special education teacher, she is well versed in different approaches to handling auties [not aunties like I misspelled before!]. It seems to help him, and look pretty cool on him, very styling ;))
