Noise annoys

Today, I wore out yet another set of headphones. This is the third one in a year. I need my headphones whenever I go outside because I have sensory processing disorder, and a multitude of hearing disorders that painfully enhance my hearing. Guess I'm stuck at home until I can buy pair number four. FML

how do you wear out headphones?

Are you using audio headphones or using safety earmuffs designed for construction workers or those with sensory issues? I would think insurance would cover the latter if there is a diagnosed medical need.

Doesn't your insurance cover them? It's a legitimate medical expense (or a whiny hipster demand.)

Earplugs are cheap and easy to obtain. They will reduce your hearing sensitivity by about 30db and they are available for less than 10$ for 50 pairs.

not sure how you are doing that. I wear headphones 12 to 14 hours every day and they are still working just fine after 5 years.
