how do you cope with daily 'noise' in the environment around you

i have severe anxiety and a nervous disposition i try to cope with, dealt with it a long time now....i mainly live as a shut in now, but even in my apartment i feel panicked at times about daily noises around me in my environment...whether it's people shouting loudly outside, men / lads shouting loudly......men coughing loudly and aggressively outside.....dogs who bark all the time, noises, banging in my apartment block around me....loud music playing ( especially rap which i hate)....cars outside speeding and revving their engines loudly.

all these daily noises startle me and make me feel 'on edge'...especially having a nervous condition like me.

it's even worse when i know i have to go out somewhere to be around these noises.

how do you cope?

My daughter was issues with this
We do a few things
She has airpods to play calming music
She has ear plugs if things are to loud
And noise cancelling headphones for really bad moments
