I'm living in a group home, my sensory issues are getting worse, they are worse with my roommate who snores, make other noises & when she eat snacks. I know it not her fault, she can't speak or hear. I have other problems with my sensory issues like people being too loud.

Hello Kitty4670,

Sorry to hear of your troubles.
Is there no option to ask for/buy some sensory aids, such as noise-canceling earbuds, (comfortable ones exist nowadays). Or perhaps with your room-mate try out some anti-snoring aids...

best of luck,
Kada

You might try a fan or a white noise generator.

That is what I use - I recommend it.
