Soundcore Anker Life Q20 Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Headphones on sale on Amazon for $44.98. I'm considering these. They would be good to wear if I have to go to Walmart.
HOWEVER sound waves do not assault only one's ears! The vibes impinge on the entire body! Believe me, when I first started to be sensitive to loud noises (I used to love to dance! But the music was SO LOUD!) I tried ear plugs, and they made it actually worse! I actually like the reverb of the bass, when it is not too loud, but one experiences the bass not mainly through the ears . . . [doesn't it seem to vibrate through the floor?]
Plus who wants to have to wear headphones all the time? He does wear ear protection while mowing the lawn, good idea I think. The ear drums have to be protected!! even if it does not solve the entire assault on all the senses . . .
I don't want to wear headphones "all the time," just in noisy places like stores. There is no chance of loud bass in Walmart, just noise. I have Asperger's. I couldn't study in the library in college because of the buzzing fluorescent lights, and the dorm room was super loud every night with all the stereos rattling the doors until 1AM or 2AM every night. I finally had to quit college.
I have Asperger's, so it's not just loud sounds, but also other sounds, like buzzing fluorescent lights. I can't stand those. I like to walk in my back yard, which is far from traffic and people, so I just hear the wind and the birds.

Thanks! My husband also suggested those.

I agree, modern life is just TOO LOUD!
