Hey @lrynt252! I saw your tags in a notification that movies are too loud for you and you have sensitive ears, and I'm here to #notsponsored tell you about something wonderful!
Flare Audio's "Calmer" collection! https://www.flareaudio.com/collections/calmer
I've been using them since the only version they had was the standard original, so I can't give reviews on the other varieties because I'm still just using the ones I've had for 3+ years, but they're mazing. As the Calmer Kids variety says, "Makes spiky sounds smooth."
As far as I'm aware, it won't help with things like tinnitus, but it DOES help when sounds are Too. Too spiky, too sharp, too grating, too shrill. They're great for cinemas, because it also helps with that guy two rows back who is just going ham on some popcorn in the middle of a quiet scene, along with the overpowering min-max tones of cinema speakers. I also take them to theme parks for standing in line in an indoor queue where everyone's voices are echoing and they just keep talking louder to be heard over everyone else's echoey voice and... you get the idea.
My wife reports that they also help with her chewing-noises misophonia (rage response to certain sound triggers -- mine is slurping/smacking, hers is crunching).
Anyway! I linked to their direct site up there but they also have a storefront where they sell through Amazon if that helps take some shipping charges off your plate.
Hope this helps!

eta: the third to last option says 500-999 shhh
how to find the number: use this page to calculate the total number of notes your original posts have gotten, then divide by the number of original posts (and round the result however you see fit). here's mine as an example:
so i divide 142,200 by 626 and get 227.16, which i then round to 227 average notes per post
