I have on earbuds now but they really start to hurt my ears. I know some people have said that ear plugs are not good b/c after you take them out, the noises become worse. So I dont know what to do anymore.

Thanks!

Thanks Mike. I was googling them and that was one of the first ones that popped up so I am glad to hear a good review of it. I may just go and order that one. I am desperate and my ears are about to explode from the earbuds I have in.. and I cant take much more of the noise. The rage and anxiety at work is unbelievable because of this as I am sure all of you can imagine.

I looked on Amazon at that model but it says it only has white noise--and white noise bugs me a LOT... I need brown noise and that one was over $110

I'm so sorry you have to suffer at work . I know what it is like having worked for over 40 years and enduring endless torture and sleepless nights. I hope this, and other things, can bring you some peace. Some people can't tolerate white noise. I love it. It is a very soothing whooshing sound that seems to calm me and blocks out a lot of those bothersome noises. Buy one and see how it works for you.

I didn't know they had a brown noise option. I will check it out. Costs twice as much though. this condition has so plagued my life that the costs involved in dealing with it were always secondary to peace of mind. To: Soundsensitivity Sent: Monday, May 21, 2012

Yeah, I think most people probably feel that way. I do, except with 9 other chronic conditions and being mostly bedridden, I obviously can't work.. so I am very very limited in funds and even $20 is tough for me.. so $110 would take months of saving. I am going to try brown noise on my iPod though and see if that helps.. I may be able to use that instead. :)

itunes has a brown noise loop for .99 cents. Simply noise has a free app. I used to play it through the speakers of my computer. I do like brown noise the best too. I didn't see a brown noise machine anywhere. Mike To:

This is the $110 machine that has brown noise that I mentioned earlier:http://www.amazon.com/Ecotones-Sound-Sleep-Machine-ASM1002/dp/B002SMJQT4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8 & qid=1337633749 & sr=8-2

" Chill out to soothing sounds of the ocean, rain, brook, or a cascading waterfall with one-touch volume control. Or drift off to sleep listening

to relaxing meadow, fireplace, city, or train sounds. SOUND+SLEEP also offers white, pink, and brown noise, and a meditation sound profile as other options. " ---------------------------------------------------------

Mike,I don't have anything right now, but hopefully someday.There are noises that bother me, but for now I have been blocking them as much as possible with earplugs. I keep hearing mixed things--some say earplugs are okay and others say they are a very bad idea. I'd like to eventually transition from using earplugs to brown noise (or something similar).

I am trying hard to leave my earplugs out during the day and just tolerate the noises (easier said than done), but I cannot sleep unless I have them in to block out some of the noises. I don't sleep well anyway due to chronic pain issues--and sleep is so important with all these pain and illness problems.

Did you say that you had a white noise sleep machine? If so, do you use it just at night, or can you use it during the day? Can you travel with it? Those are the things I am curious about... if anyone out there knows! :)

,Yes I do have a white noise machine. The Marpac and it really helps. I cannot sleep without a fan or some kind of white or brown noise. Been like that for about 40 years. It is a compact machine and is great for travel. It works well as a background noise around the house. I live in a deathly quiet home and can hear any sound at all. It makes a nice soothing background ambient noise to break the silence in my case or any other sudden or annoying sounds throughout the day. I like it but I guess it is an individual thing. The instructions suggest that you put it at a distance from your bed at

night. Mike To: Soundsensitivity Sent: Monday, May 21, 2012 2:13 PM Subject: Re: Noise cancelling machine

itunes has a brown noise loop for .99 cents. Simply noise has a free app. I used to play it through the speakers of my computer. I do like brown noise the best too.

I didn't see a brown noise machine anywhere. Mike

Yeah, I think most people probably feel that way. I do, except with 9 other chronic conditions and being mostly bedridden, I obviously can't work.. so I am very very limited in funds and even $20 is tough for me.. so $110 would take months of saving. I am going to try brown noise on my iPod though and see if that helps.. I may be able to use that instead. :)

I didn't know they had a brown noise option. I will check it out. Costs twice as much though.

this condition has so plagued my life that the costs involved in dealing with it were always secondary to peace of mind.

I looked on Amazon at that model but it says it only has white noise--and white noise bugs me a LOT... I need brown noise and that one was over $110

Thanks Mike. I was googling them and that was one of the first ones that popped up so I am glad to hear a good review of it. I may just go and order that one. I am desperate and my ears are about to explode from the earbuds I have in.. and I cant take much more of the noise. The rage and anxiety at work is unbelievable because of this as I am sure all of you can imagine.

I love my Marpac sleep mate. Models 580a or 980a. Under $60.00. Compact, lasts forever, adjustable tones. Simple design. Travels well. Get at Amazon with free shipping.

Very soothing sound .

Can someone please recommend an excellent noise machine that will block out sounds for me at work, such at teeth sucking, drumming on the desk, etc? I am hoping between the radio on my computer and a noise machine I may have some peace. Headphones start to hurt my ears after a while. I bought a fan hoping that it would drown some noise out but no such luck. Any specific brands that work best - maybe that offer a little variety of sound?

Thanks!

MikeThanks--good to know. I live at home with my mom (since I can't completely care for myself right now) and we have a Habitat for Humanity home, but it was a donated house from 1927 that was gutted and redone. The floors are original (but covered with carpet) and they squeak anytime there is movement. We also have 3 cats and while I love and adore them, I can't sleep if I can't block out the noises of their movements in the middle of the night. They sleep most of the night now that they are adult cats, but one of them will get a spurt of energy and start ripping through the house at 4 am! Drive me bonkers. :)

,Yes I do have a white noise machine. The Marpac and it really helps. I cannot sleep without a fan or some kind of white or brown noise. Been like that for about 40 years. 

It is a compact machine and is great for travel. It works well as a background noise around the house. I live in a deathly quiet home and can hear any sound at all. It makes a nice soothing background 

ambient noise to break the silence in my case or any other sudden or annoying sounds throughout the day. I like it but I guess it is an individual thing. The instructions suggest that you put it at a distance from your bed at

night. Mike

Mike,I don't have anything right now, but hopefully someday.There are noises that bother me, but for now I have been blocking them as much as possible with earplugs. I keep hearing mixed things--some say earplugs are okay and others say they are a very bad idea. I'd like to eventually transition from using earplugs to brown noise (or something similar).

I am trying hard to leave my earplugs out during the day and just tolerate the noises (easier said than done), but I cannot sleep unless I have them in to block out some of the noises. I don't sleep well anyway due to chronic pain issues--and sleep is so important with all these pain and illness problems.

Did you say that you had a white noise sleep machine? If so, do you use it just at night, or can you use it during the day? Can you travel with it? Those are the things I am curious about... if anyone out there knows! :)

:) My mom and I were joking earlier about getting rid of our cats because they are such stinkers. One in particular () is always getting into things. He got outside today! He didn't get past the porch, but they are -not- allowed outside! Scared me when he got out.

Of course we won't really get rid of them--when I am home alone all day every day, they are my " saving grace " . :) They provide a love and companionship that I definitely need when I don't feel well.

I definitely want to try one of those sound machines (or something similar) someday. I think it would probably help me to sleep, and possibly even allow me to spend more time with my mom (who is my biggest trigger at this point so it is difficult to be in the same room as her). I just wasn't quite sure what to think of your offer of help--it surprised me. It's not often someone offers something like that. Very kind of you to want to help. :) I look forward to the day I am able to do more to help others.

Can someone please recommend an excellent noise machine that will block out sounds for me at work, such at teeth sucking, drumming on the desk, etc? I am hoping between the radio on my computer and a noise machine I may have some peace. Headphones start to hurt my ears after a while. I bought a fan hoping that it would drown some noise out but no such luck. Any specific brands that work best - maybe that offer a little variety of sound?

:) My mom and I were joking earlier about getting rid of our cats because they are such stinkers. One in particular () is always getting into things. He got outside today! He didn't get past the porch, but they are -not- allowed outside! Scared me when he got out.

Of course we won't really get rid of them--when I am home alone all day every day, they are my "saving grace". :) They provide a love and companionship that I definitely need when I don't feel well.

I definitely want to try one of those sound machines (or something similar) someday. I think it would probably help me to sleep, and possibly even allow me to spend more time with my mom (who is my biggest trigger at this point so it is difficult to be in the same room as her). I just wasn't quite sure what to think of your offer of help--it surprised me. It's not often someone offers something like that. Very kind of you to want to help. :) I look forward to the day I am able to do more to help others.

MikeThanks--good to know. I live at home with my mom (since I can't completely care for myself right now) and we have a Habitat for Humanity home, but it was a donated house from 1927 that was gutted and redone. The floors are original (but covered with carpet) and they squeak anytime there is movement. We also have 3 cats and while I love and adore them, I can't sleep if I can't block out the noises of their movements in the middle of the night. They sleep most of the night now that they are adult cats, but one of them will get a spurt of energy and start ripping through the house at 4 am! Drive me bonkers. :)

,Yes I do have a white noise machine. The Marpac and it really helps. I cannot sleep without a fan or some kind of white or brown noise. Been like that for about 40 years.

It is a compact machine and is great for travel. It works well as a background noise around the house. I live in a deathly quiet home and can hear any sound at all. It makes a nice soothing background

ambient noise to break the silence in my case or any other sudden or annoying sounds throughout the day. I like it but I guess it is an individual thing. The instructions suggest that you put it at a distance from your bed at

night. Mike

Mike,I don't have anything right now, but hopefully someday.There are noises that bother me, but for now I have been blocking them as much as possible with earplugs. I keep hearing mixed things--some say earplugs are okay and others say they are a very bad idea. I'd like to eventually transition from using earplugs to brown noise (or something similar).

I am trying hard to leave my earplugs out during the day and just tolerate the noises (easier said than done), but I cannot sleep unless I have them in to block out some of the noises. I don't sleep well anyway due to chronic pain issues--and sleep is so important with all these pain and illness problems.

Did you say that you had a white noise sleep machine? If so, do you use it just at night, or can you use it during the day? Can you travel with it? Those are the things I am curious about... if anyone out there knows! :)

Yeah, I think most people probably feel that way. I do, except with 9 other chronic conditions and being mostly bedridden, I obviously can't work.. so I am very very limited in funds and even $20 is tough for me.. so $110 would take months of saving. I am going to try brown noise on my iPod though and see if that helps.. I may be able to use that instead. :)

Wow. I don't even know what to say. You are both so very kind! I am just sitting here in a bit of shock, because this all just seems so unusual to me!

I actually am a member of a site called Wish Upon A Hero where people can post wishes for anything they want (from food to meeting a celebrity to getting birthday cards in the mail) and so on that site, I see a whole lot of kindness from 'strangers'.  Outside of there, though--I don't usually encounter people like the two of you!

I've been trying to find one that just plays brown noise and not all the other noises because I figured it would be cheaper that way, but so far I haven't found anything except this one that plays brown noise.

Has anyone else in this group found a brown noise player? So far I just checked Amazon and the Shopping tab on Google. Not sure where else to search... not even sure what kind of stores would have these nifty little machines.

They sleep most of the night now that they are adult cats, but one of them will get a spurt of energy and start ripping through the house at 4 am! Drive me bonkers. :)

,Yes I do have a white noise machine. The Marpac and it really helps. I cannot sleep without a fan or some kind of white or brown noise. Been like that for about 40 years. 

It is a compact machine and is great for travel. It works well as a background noise around the house. I live in a deathly quiet home and can hear any sound at all. It makes a nice soothing background 

ambient noise to break the silence in my case or any other sudden or annoying sounds throughout the day. I like it but I guess it is an individual thing. The instructions suggest that you put it at a distance from your bed at

night. Mike

Mike,I don't have anything right now, but hopefully someday.There are noises that bother me, but for now I have been blocking them as much as possible with earplugs. I keep hearing mixed things--some say earplugs are okay and others say they are a very bad idea. I'd like to eventually transition from using earplugs to brown noise (or something similar).

I am trying hard to leave my earplugs out during the day and just tolerate the noises (easier said than done), but I cannot sleep unless I have them in to block out some of the noises. I don't sleep well anyway due to chronic pain issues--and sleep is so important with all these pain and illness problems.

Did you say that you had a white noise sleep machine? If so, do you use it just at night, or can you use it during the day? Can you travel with it? Those are the things I am curious about... if anyone out there knows! :)

Yeah, I think most people probably feel that way. I do, except with 9 other chronic conditions and being mostly bedridden, I obviously can't work.. so I am very very limited in funds and even $20 is tough for me.. so $110 would take months of saving. I am going to try brown noise on my iPod though and see if that helps.. I may be able to use that instead. :)

I didn't know they had a brown noise option. I will check it out. Costs twice as much though. 

this condition has so plagued my life that the costs involved in dealing with it were always secondary to peace of mind.

Thanks Mike.  I was googling them and that was one of the first ones that popped up so I am glad to hear a good review of it.  I may just go and order that one.  I am desperate and my ears are about to explode from the earbuds I have in.. and I cant take much more of the noise.  The rage and anxiety at work is unbelievable because of this as I am sure all of you can imagine.

 

 

I love my Marpac sleep mate. Models 580a or 980a. Under $60.00. Compact, lasts forever, adjustable tones. Simple design. Travels well. Get at Amazon with free shipping. 

Very soothing sound .

Can someone please recommend an excellent noise machine that will block out sounds for me at work, such at teeth sucking, drumming on the desk, etc?  I am hoping between the radio on my computer and a noise machine I may have some peace.  Headphones start to hurt my ears after a while.  I bought a fan hoping that it would drown some noise out but no such luck.  Any specific brands that work best - maybe that offer a little variety of sound?

 

Thanks!

,You should have your brown noise machine in 2 days. Probably by Friday. I hope it helps and give a report on it. I think I will by one too if you like it. Mike To: Soundsensitivity Sent:

I've been trying to find one that just plays brown noise and not all the other noises because I figured it would be cheaper that way, but so far I haven't found anything except this one that plays brown noise.

Has anyone else in this group found a brown noise player? So far I just checked Amazon and the Shopping tab on Google. Not sure where else to search... not even sure what kind of stores would have these nifty little machines.

Wow. I don't even know what to say. You are both so very kind! I am just sitting here in a bit of shock, because this all just seems so unusual to me!

I actually am a member of a site called Wish Upon A Hero where people can post wishes for anything they want (from food to meeting a celebrity to getting birthday cards in the mail) and so on that site, I see a whole lot of kindness from 'strangers'. Outside of there, though--I don't usually encounter people like the two of you!

:) My mom and I were joking earlier about getting rid of our cats because they are such stinkers. One in particular () is always getting into things. He got outside today! He didn't get past the porch, but they are -not- allowed outside! Scared me when he got out.

Of course we won't really get rid of them--when I am home alone all day every day, they are my "saving grace". :) They provide a love and companionship that I definitely need when I don't feel well.

I definitely want to try one of those sound machines (or something similar) someday. I think it would probably help me to sleep, and possibly even allow me to spend more time with my mom (who is my biggest trigger at this point so it is difficult to be in the same room as her). I just wasn't quite sure what to think of your offer of help--it surprised me. It's not often someone offers something like that. Very kind of you to want to help. :) I look forward to the day I am able to do more to help others.

Wow! That is quick. I am SO excited about this! I really hope it helps, not only to sleep but so that my mom and I can spend more time together. She's my best friend and I hate that we have to limit the small amount of time we have together! Thank you guys so much! I appreciate it way more than my silly little words can express! :)
