Hey, that's me! When I go to the water park, I accept their music, when I go camping, I wanna take an axe to the RV of anyone with a speaker outside. I have one but I keep it low enough that I have to be within 10 ft to even hear it, 5 ft to understand it.
I cannot concentrate with music playing.
Literally anything else? Like a truck crashing through the window or someone literally trying to engage me? Zero lost focus, to the extent I was initially diagnosed with a hearing disorder.
Not that that helps get stuff done…

Mostly the former, but occasionally the latter if I can’t control the latter noise.
Where do I stand if, (regardless of my choice in the track or ability to affect said audio emenations) that background noise more or less just scene dressing for the "going insane" bit that's rolling ahead with or without it?
I like music. In silence there is almost always something else, far more distracting. A faint conversation my brain wants to listen to, music, just background noise.
I also tried noise generators at some point, but that was weird. White noise is annoying as fuck. Brown noise was better, but it made me sweat a lot when I kept it on, and just added some stress.
I should get that diagnosis.
