      My autistic friend loves her Loops. After getting the Loops she realised that she doesn’t actually hate large social gatherings, it’s just that hearing hundreds of simultaneous conversations is exhausting. After getting Loops, she is totally fine in sports bars, county fairs, Octoberfest, etc.

      Most uncomfortable earplugs I’ve ever used lol.

      Glad you’re getting on well with them :)

      Just shows how different everyone’s ears are.

        It’s good to find a thing. Hopefully you have found a thing too. Maybe not Loop, but a different thing.

          Yeah I ended up with moldable ones that you squish in and they shape themselves to your ear, then stay soft until you remove them. Tried a few different designs and these worked best for me. It’s so nice being able to sleep in near silence!

          I’d heard great things about loop, but they just aren’t right for my ear shape unfortunately.
