Does anyone know if there's a type of earplugs that can reduce the noise without amplifying your own voice? I don't really care about sound quality for this, I just want to be able to have a conversation in a bar without freaking out at the end of the night. (I don't have many alternative places to socialise in my area that aren't super loud unfortunately.)

Any suggestions?

@dinobelbo @autistics @actuallyadhd I don't think that's possible. Its not actually amplifying your own voic,e which is being conducted through your bones and you're hearing that all the time, it's just blocking everything else out so it *seems* louder. You could try active noise cancelling headphones with a voice passthrough function. In theory, that will block the noise, but let human voice frequencies though, I'm not sure how well they work in practice, though.
