When you have a sleep disorder, you naturally feel estranged. It can feel like everybody else has it so good while you have it shit. Imagine being a high school teacher holding your math classes and suffering from narcolepsy. Or realizing on your way to work that you sleepwalked again last night.

Sure, you may feel weird. But sleep disorders are nothing uncommon so get it out of your head that something is fundamentally wrong about you. Nothing is.

It’s a disorder. Something you can do something about. Something that, while it may elude you to find a permanent solution, you are not powerless to change to something a little bit better.

Essentially the combination of all audible sounds over a frequency band, white noise has gained popularity as a sleep aid. The hissing sound kept at moderate levels has helped numerous people both relax and catch slumber.
How does it help sleep:

1. Because it is made up of most available sound frequencies in equal amounts, it is a great way to drown out unwanted noises, basically canceling them and masking their presence.
2. It is a very peaceful sound that is soothing and calming to the ears and minds of humans in a very natural, instinctive way

How to get white noise:

1. Mechanical sources

This includes the sound of a strong electric fan or a mechanical sleep-aid device such as the Sleepmate
2. Electronical sources

The television, when signal is cut off, can generate a soothing white noise as well as radio static. Synthesizers are a favorite source of white noise as well.

3. Pre-recorded sounds

There have been many recordings of soothing white noise, usually in CD or MP3 formats, which is great to play over speakers at home or on portable music players at work or during trips.
