I recently moved to a quiet apartment in a warmer climate at a lower elevation. I also bought a new mattress and am trying to worry less about work. Unfortunately, all of this happened at the same time so it’s hard to tell what has made a difference and how much of a difference it has made.

I was shocked to see how much difference it makes just to have quiet. I used to be constantly tense because I’d get woken up several times a night. I had looked at industrial products and even bought a pair of ear plugs that construction workers wear to no avail. Then I’d try to grab a nap in the day to compensate for the fact that I had only slept for 2-4 hours a night and it would be noisy then too. This led to constant frustration and several white noise machines. I’m still in pain, I can still hardly function working from home. Overall though life is just a lot easier without the environmental stress.
