i'm doomed, you're safe

even aside from certain soundscapes being overstimulating, overwhelming, and deeply exhausting for neurodivergent people, noise pollution is a real phenomenon, and studies have shown it can have negative health effects (even in certain cases where you can’t hear the noise pollution due to it being infrasound).

the most noticeable effects are obviously from big industrial sounds, but even if just an electronic hum or sharp beeps bother you and you hear them all the time, every day, it can put you on edge. it might seem small and inconsequential, but even the little things can add up.

there’s also a reason so many meditative and holy spaces cultivate serene soundscapes with things like thick walls, open spaces, and bells/gentle chimes.
