I have auditory processing disorder (APD). For me, it means that in noisy environments (on the street, in a café, or anywhere with background noise_ I can hear the person speaking to me, but I can’t understand the speech. It’s like all the sounds blend together into a confusing mess, and the words just get lost in the noise.

I’ve been thinking about trying earplugs that could help reduce the overwhelming background noise while still allowing me to catch speech more clearly. If you have a similar experience or sensory issues, what earplugs do you personally use? I would be very grateful for any recommendations (whether it’s a specific brand, model, or just a type that works best for you).

Thank you so much in advance!
