Anyone else always need something on in the background? It seems to help drown out my voices. I usually put on video game streams or videos. What do you listen to?

I listen to podcasts or nutrition youtube channels. It’s a lot of talk about health and nutrition and that distracts me from focusing on what I might be hearing in my head.

yeah the reason my YouTube wrap-up says I watched 487 Papa Meat videos this year is because I just let his videos run on some days when I’m doing something and need something to distract my brain.
If I’m hearing real voices, the probability of hearing my sz voices plummets, so this is actually useful for me.
I like podcasts too @Vinegar , my favorite is CreepCast.

I usually have YouTube game playthroughs going or some form of paranormal show. Even when I’m reading. Lol.

I have to have something in the background 24/7, even sleep with music on all throughout the night. It helps me.

Oh yeah it hit me like a ton of bricks, I stared at the closure thread for about 30 seconds before I went “noooooooooo” out loud, but Bowens acted very fast and graciously and we have a new home for the time being

Oh I absolutely have to have background noise. I pretty much keep my radio on 24/7, and I turn the volume down low at night when I sleep. I find that background voice helps keep my mind occupied and thus less prone to hearing voices.

I keep the cable news on in the background pretty much all day long
