There is currently construction happening on both sides of my house. On one side, a new house is being built; which is making my wooden bedroom floor vibrate; which is making my bed vibrate; which is exacerbating my chronic pain. On the other side, a new train line is being built. I am struggling to cope.
The new house construction is also generating loud BEEP BEEP BEEPs of reversing equipment during the day, and the train line construction is generating loud BEEP BEEP BEEPs of reversing equipment during the night.
What I am currently doing:
I am playing white noise on my computer from https://mynoise.net;
I have ordered noise-cancelling headphones (Bose QuietComfort 45 Wireless NC);
Keeping all doors and windows closed;
Reminding myself that it won't last forever (although it has already been more than 3 months).
What won't work:
I've tried ear plugs, but they cause major skin irritation in my ear canal.
Staying in a hotel or at a friend's house is not an option.
