Best earplugs for sleeping?

Chronic Illness@lemmy.worldEnglish · 1 day ago

I usually use the orange 3m foam ones or the silicone ones.

The silicone ones are much comfier and seem to block out the sound just as much. The issue is neither block out the sound enough for me.

I also use white noise and turn the tv on and its not enough.

Does anyone have specific earplug recommendations for sleeping please? Side sleeper here so I can’t use wireless earphones 😢

Absolutely no ableism. This includes harmful stereotypes: lazy/freeloaders etc
No quackery. Does an up-to date major review in a big journal or a major government guideline come to the conclusion you’re claiming is fact? No? Then don’t claim it’s fact. This applies to potential treatments and disease mechanisms.
No denialism or minimisation This applies challenges faced by chronically ill people.
No psychosomatising psychosomatisation is a tool used by insurance companies and governments to blame physical illnesses on mental problems, and thereby saving money by not paying benefits. There is no concrete proof psychosomatic or functional disease exists with the vast majority of historical diagnoses turning out to be biomedical illnesses medicine has not discovered yet. Psychosomatics is rooted in misogyny, and consisted up until very recently of blaming women’s health complaints on “hysteria”.
