PTSD sucks. I have my ear plugs in, trying to ride out the explosions outside. Anyone else in a similar situation, maybe neurodivergent?

Given the local weather, there's typically barely anything of that sort around here.

The real problem is the 4th of July, in which there are chronic explosions going on almost a full month sandwiching that date. Just terrible as a light sleeper with oversensitive hearing.
