I agreed with Jonas. Clear Texts make me feel the need to concentrate on them and Audible (which I love listening too)makes me fear to miss the Story when I stop listening actively. So classical music or ambient sounds are good for my brain.
When I am not anxious it helps me a lot, i go to utube and choose specifically adhd music it helps a lot.
I cannot sleep without the sound of rain. It’s the only thing that helps my brain relax even with high dose sleeping meds
I like to have old sitcoms playing. Because I’ve seen them many times before, they provide some noise without being too interesting and causing a distraction. I don’t watch them, just listen
It helps me at night to sleep, if you have an iPhone it comes with a few preloaded ambient sounds and the ocean one is the perfect mix for me to quiet my brain and focus on relaxing
Yess! It works! Technically, sound help increasing cortex activation, wich is low in our case! I always focus better with background sounds or even music!
Sometimes! Both ambient sounds and ambient music (or a combination). I usually focus best when not having music with (clear) vocals and lyrics though.
