It’s driving me crazy. Partner on phone, playing videos and games while the TV is running some YouTube reaction stuff.

I wear noise cancelling headphones all day at home because it’s just too much. The volume is so high I can hear it through a closed door. My PC is in the same room as the TV and I can’t even concentrate on a tutorial on how to do some editing stuff.

Partner is also suffering from depression so every freaking time I begged to please turn the tv off, it’s just ended in a 30 minute therapy session at home on how I can improve myself.

Anyone in a similar situation?

    It’s a fair request to turn it down enough so it’s not audible in the next room. In our house if someone wants it quiet and someone else wants it noisy, quiet wins and noisy can use headphones.
