I m afraid of noise when I sleep, and I m very, very afraid of noise

Question: Disorder: Psychological disorder obsessive-compulsive disorder Description of the condition (main symptoms, onset time):

Dear Dr. Fan, I don't sleep well when I sleep with noise, but I sleep well when there is no noise. But now I sleep in the school dormitory, and I am always afraid of noise when I sleep, and as a result, I don't dare to sleep when there is no noise, I am afraid of being woken up by the noise and not sleeping well. Let me introduce me:

When I was in high school, I lived in a dormitory, just in time for the school construction, and the noise was loud at night, and I often couldn't sleep well at 12 o'clock at night, and I wanted to rent a house outside but couldn't rent it, and I was very depressed. This went on for more than a year. But since then I have been afraid of sound.

Living in a school dormitory is the case with these symptoms. As a result, I didn't get along well with the people in the dormitory. I think that's probably the kind of trigger you're talking about.

Later, I tried to think about everything, but I couldn't control it. I used to be full and happy, but since then, I have been timid and cautious, and I could have been admitted to the South China University of Technology as a national defense student in the college entrance examination this year, but I was afraid to get up at 5:30 every day, because I was afraid of sound when I slept, and I thought that I would definitely not sleep well in the university dormitory, and I would definitely not be able to stand it if I got up so early.

But now that I think about it, I regret it. But I was so timid when I made a decision, and now I basically don't dare to make any more decisions because I am afraid of making the wrong decision. I think it's mainly caused by not sleeping well before, but I think it's too hard to get over it.

Because I tell myself when I sleep: no matter what the noise or the light is, don't think about it anymore. But the more I told myself, the more I couldn't sleep.

Sometimes I tell myself to go with the flow, but when it comes time to sleep, I can't help but be afraid of noise, even if there is no noise, I can't control it. I saw in the psychological counseling ** written by Professor Lu Longguang that sometimes what to do if you can't decide, and what to do for people with obsessive-compulsive disorder. But for this matter,

1.Outdoor noise can be solved by replacing the soundproof windows and making soundproofing treatment on the walls.

2.The noise of the neighbor's house, first coordinate yourself, you can also find the property or call the police.

If you really can't do it, you can only buy some sleep earbuds.

Poor sleep can easily cause many health problems, noise often leads to difficulty sleeping, in order to sleep well, you can modify your bedroom to reduce the incoming noise; White noise, or wear earplugs to cover up the noise; Find the source of the noise and solve the noise problem.

By renovating the room, you can reduce the incoming noise while sleeping. If the noise comes from the neighbor and the sound insulation of the room is not very good, then add a layer of sound-absorbing material on the wall to absorb the noise, and the noise reduction coefficient of the sound-absorbing panel is determined by itself. If the noise is because the street is too noisy, you can install soundproof glass, and the window is also a little soundproofed by installing thick curtains, and then pay attention to whether there are gaps in the windows, and the gaps can also be plugged for it.

When the noise comes from downstairs, insulate the carpet and replace it with a floor that is better insulated.

White noise. White noise refers to the fact that the power of the frequency component of a sound is uniform throughout the human ear, like the rustle made when a fan turns. This sound can reduce the sense of shock caused by the sudden noise or the sound of a car.

You can divert your attention from the noise and let the comfortable sound drown out the noise of the outside environment. Wear earplugs, just start wearing earbuds to sleep, it may be a little uncomfortable, after a while. When choosing earplugs, you should find the right ear for your ears, and be careful not to unplug the earbuds too quickly or stuff them too deeply, so as not to cause the eardrum to rupture.

But because the sound isolation of the earbuds is very good, you may miss important sounds such as alarm clocks and smoke alarms.

To solve the noise source, if it is a living environment, next to the house is the railway, highway and other objective factors that cannot be changed, then the only solution is to move or install sound insulation panels. If it is because the neighbor is loud at night, you can openly and honestly make suggestions to the neighbor, two people talk, pay attention not to be emotional during the conversation, in life, there are often cases of fighting because of disagreement with the neighbor, do not knock on his door when he is noisy, you can wait until the next day to communicate. If the noise comes from the surrounding construction, then you can file a complaint with **.

1. If you are affected by noise for a long time, it is recommended to change the glass in your home to soundproof glass, and you can also cooperate with soundproof curtains, so as to reduce the transmission of noise and restore a quieter sleeping environment. However, this method will cost more money and labor.

2. There is also a simpler way, for those who are not very noisy or who usually sleep well, you can buy a pair of noise-canceling earplugs, and put the earbuds into your ears when you sleep to reduce noise, this method is relatively simple and affordable.

34. If you can't sleep due to noise, you can also try to exercise, and you can do more physical exercises during the day, such as running and swimming. This will make the body more tired and make it easier to fall asleep at night.

Who made you born in China? To survive here, you have to be physically and mentally extremely solid, so solid that you are almost numb, and you don't have so much anxiety and pain. If you want to live a real human life, go to Europe, America and Japan, especially Northern Europe, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and Japan.

Taking a step back, going to Southeast Asia and Latin America is also a good way to get out.
