I also have ADHD, but not hearing problems and suffer some of the problems you describe. However, silence doesn't seem to help my productivity and sometimes makes me anxious too.
What helps me is predictable sounds - like music I've listened to many times before.
- MobiusHorizons 5y agoI have certain albums that I have listened to straight through many times now while getting work done. They no longer distract me basically at all, so I can work very effectively. I have also found that certain not types of older TV shows hit the white noise level where they get me moving, but don't pull me out of my thoughts too often. This is mostly for things where the goal is just to keep moving on something, not where the goal is to think deeply.
