@dr.kojosarfo: Which one of these describes your preferred noise level?! 🎧 #audhd #neurospicy

Abbigale🍓 :

MY noises are ok. Noises from others are not approved 😂 Audhd

Brenda :

as audhd, for me is noise I can control = good noise I can't control = bad

lɐʇuǝɯǝlǝıuou :

Lately I turn on the tv on mute: I present to you "the idea of noise"

Charlie🆘🇺🇸 :

For me with AuDHD, there can be noise but I have to be in control of it at all times. Other people making noise is too much, but listening to really loud music (through headphones ofc) to drown out all other sounds is perfectly fine.

CԋɾσɳιƈαʅʅყMҽ,Fι🍉🇧🇦🇵🇱 :

the fan on, facing away from me was too specific for me 😅

Big Tay :

“I hate that I understand this.” Indeed 😂

Nocturnal Ignition :

I need noise but it has to be one of my *approved comfort noises* and if a different noise joins the party I get a stomach ache.

Lizzie Borden Bennet :

“the idea of noise” YES hahahaha

Rogue 🇨🇦 :

I have to be in control of the noise!!! AuDHD

Wulfe :

ADHD side: Let's have YouTube going, fan on, music going, tiktok on, and playing a video game Autistic side: Overstimmed to hell and panicking but at least the voices stopped 😬

my sweet meliss-uhh :

I don't like sound, but I need some sound

Dr. Lindy J. Johnson :

“Concepts of noise” is perfection. For me it’s either brown noise or silence. Any other sounds and I may lose it on you.

🦇Morbid Mizzy🦇 :

Not noise. Sound. I need some sound but not noisy noise type of sound. You know?

Polly (yes really) :

Honeslty finding the appropriate background noise is a struggle.

J :

Syren :

Def audhd. If it’s too loud to get annoyed. But silent my brain races

TheRatStooges :

I'll be vibing to some music, then have an internal monologue I need to mute it for so I can finish my thought. music goes back on, instantly overstimulated

Nightwing :

I need noise, but it has to be MY noise

Kat_For_Sure :

the comfort show you've seen 20 times because it's so familiar it functions for both 😂 mines Grey's anatomy lol

Desiia Deacon :

At this point im convinced i am AuDHD because i cant not focus if its 2 quite and i get overstimulated if its 2 loud 🤦🏾‍♀️

🌻 MEGAN 🌻 :

Noise, but no tapping, no heavy breathing, and for the love of all things holy no chewing or food smacking

STordiff 🇨🇦 :

so I heard a theory that I think fits (at least me) perfectly. ADHD needs 100% of their brain busy. So if you're doing a task that only requires 25% of your brain, there needs to be 75% background noise, but if you're using 99% of your brain you need basic silence. Adjust the noise based on the brain % needed :)

whatfandomagain :

I like noise but MY noise. I want light but MY light. I dont want my big light on if I dont need it. I'll turn on all my little lights and turn on my TV just for the glow. I dont need anything else

dynotyp :

I’m so AuDHD it ain’t even funny

Kristin T :

Gotta have my emotional support tv on in the other room 🙃
