31 and I finally did the thing. HR was actually kind. I got: noise-canceling headphones reimbursed, an end-of-day 1:1 with my manager instead of a Friday-afternoon team meeting, and explicit permission to skip the open-plan area on heavy days. Posting in case anyone needs proof it can go well.

Did you have a doctor's note or just ask? I'm psyching myself up for a similar conversation.
