My wife and I are both autistic. She has difficulty moderating the volume of her voice, and I’m volume sensitive. So far she’s been unable to recognize when I’m having trouble, and I’ve been unable to stop being so sensitive. :/

I’ve tried wearing earplugs but I have trouble remembering to keep them in.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to reduce volume from someone when you’re sensitive and they’re loud without realizing it?

    Help her to recognise when she’s speaking too loudly. If you’re right next to her, she should use her “Inside voice”.
