Does anyone else find absolute silence difficult to deal with? In particular difficult to sleep in complete silence?
I think it started from a young age, being obsessed with music. Falling asleep with music.
As an adult, I still struggle with this and need some form of audio to drift off, be it music or something else.
More recently, I find stand-up comedy works best - it’s light-hearted and doesn’t require too much thought.
Silence isn’t a thing.
Sound of leaves rustling, the ocean, or even gentle wind? I sleep, no problem
A house quietly creaking and my blood flowing?
I’ve put on music or Netflix since childhood
