Can someone (esp someone who has CPTSD and some traumatic instances involved guns) learn to sleep through the constant sounds of fireworks from dusk to 2am or do I just have to rely on my therapist no call/no showing for waiting in the lobby naps for sleep until the frost comes back?
Oh, yeah, doesn’t help the fireworks are interspersed with actual gunfire too.

The answer is no, the person simply stays awake until the leaves turn.

My neighbors, both inside and outside the building, haven't always been the quietest. Years ago, I discovered sound protectors ("earmuffs") for sleeping. I used to use a brand designed for shooting until they stopped making them. The ones that I sleep with now are for use in and around small planes -- most of the same padding and other features as the headsets that pilots wear, except without the wires and electronics. They block out higher-pitched sounds better than lower-pitched ones so I sometimes turn on my "rumble fan" as well.
I used to stay in hostel dorms a lot. I always brought my earmuffs so I'd be able to sleep through the other hostelers' night sounds. I've also tried a white noise generator (with "pillow speakers" installed inside the earmuffs) and noise-canceling headphones. Each of the latter did help some, but I didn't think either one was quite worth the cost. |
