Ways to Reduce Atmospheric Noise


Hi Folks,
My tinnitus is coming back as a result of a cold and I believe also, due to a hyper-sensitivity towards atmospheric noise. The primary culprit is my annoying refrigerator which is up against a corner. I live in an apartment and I have my audio components in the best possible location but its relatively close to the kitchen. I also have neighbors above me who make a good deal of noise, primarily floor squeaking. Should I try placing noise proof styrofoam along walls and ceilings with velcro? Advice sincerely welcome!

At first glance I thought this post was about cosmic rays and shielding with foil hats, but to my surprise and immediate realization, I have a noisey frige too! So thank you, and I am gonna get some material as well to isolate the darn thing.
