    There’s got to be two kinds of ADHD. One where you need background noise, one where you hate it. I fit into the second category.

      I oscillate between these.

      Thankfully the whir of the engines on the Enterprise give a happy medium.

      i can’t stand silence, it gives me anxiety. it doesn’t have to be tv, but something has to make some sound

        Have you tried tinnitus? 0/10, would not recommend.

        please make it stop

          tinnitus sucks. I have been enjoying my JVC sz2000 headphones for idk, like 5k hours for the past 10 years. they have outlived many amps and soon my ears too.

        huh, sounds a lot like my mom. I wonder if she’s undiagnosed

          possible, though I’m not diagnosed either because it’s a kinda difficult and long process and I don’t feel like starting it today, but definitely tomorrow maybe.

        Me too. Thanks to tinnitus, I haven’t experienced silence for decades. Best I can do is drown it out with some pink or brown noise.

      All of my adhd friends need noise, I need silence. I’m the only one with a separately diagnosed sensory disorder, so that might explain it for me.
