Aspergers and lockdown

I have Aspergers which was diagnosed very late (50). Have managed various successful professional careers through masking which has taken its toll on my physically and emotionally. I’m now semi retired. My auditory sensory overload is at its peak currently because all 4 family members are furloughed atm and have been since lockdown. I am finding it very difficult to cope with too much noise in the house. I like white noise but find the sound of peoples’ voices irritating and also the tv . I need lots of time alone in my room atm. Is anyone else experiencing this? Although I have always felt extremely uncomfortable with groups of people, I have never felt this in my own home.
