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.
I’ve not been in silence for decades. Can’t even sleep without something on.
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.
