All the FANTASTIC Uses/Reasons to Buy: ADHD, Autism, Parenting/PMADS, Generalized Autism, deal w/crazy life
After a personal [mental] health journey, I realized that noise sensitivity was a trigger for my ADHD and Autism- especially since I want my sensory-seeking, LOUD ADHD daughter to be herself without fear of emotional dis-regulation from me. THESE ARE A GAME CHANGER! Looked into Loops, Calm Flare, and Curvd earplugs for months. Honest review: VERY much worth the price, love that it comes with earbud options, the carrying case is definitely worth it (I never forget it and I got to pick a different color than my earplugs), I can hear myself a bit more but it makes me talk softer (much appreciated by my husband and coworkers), I don't notice any occlusion from eating or breathing, takes the edge off toddler screams, they don't fall out when active, LOVE that they are washable, takes a few tries/rotations to create the seal but it doesn't "suction" you know, I don't sleep with them in but I've napped with no problems, and they have truly helped prepare me for the "witching hour" with two small kids. Great place to start if you are looking to soften the sharpness of everyday surroundings that trigger ADHD or Autistic traits.
