Get heavy duty ear protection from home Depot like they wear on construction sites to protect workers from the noise of heavy machinery, and wear airpods/in-ear wireless headphones under them. ymmv, but they saved me.

Or get some good noise-cancelling headphones.

Good in theory, but for me when I’m at my sensory limit I can’t have anything in my ears, nor the pressure of anything over them.

It’s a no-win situation in that respect and it sucks.

I can’t have anything in them either. Too sensitive in the skin.

But I can have things OVER them. So AirPods Max or the Sony cancelling big headphones. No earbuds.
