While APD is huge a part of why I use subtitles, I realized something else recently. When I read, all the noise in my head is drowned out by the voice reading. I hear the words 90% volume instead of random chatter, music, etc at 90%. So I read subtitles.

Lots of things have contributed to why so many of us use subtitles now, including shit sound mixing. But my ADHD brain is nearly silenced when I read, so I can actually hear and focus on the words when subtitles are on and I’m reading them instead of halfway understanding every third word without them.
