Tried using a white noise app to focus and it backfired completely
After three days of using a $2.99 app called Soundly, my productivity actually dropped by about 40% because the constant rain sounds made me need to pee every 20 minutes, has anyone else had a focus hack totally wreck their flow in an unexpected way?

omg the "need to pee every 20 minutes" part got me. i read somewhere that certain sounds can trick your brain into thinking you're near running water which messes with your bladder signals. i tried using a "deep focus" playlist with just low bass tones and it gave me a headache within an hour. sometimes the simpler stuff works better for me now, like just putting in earplugs.
