Reducing sound from neighbor above in condo. Double drywall or insulation + double drywall?

I have done a ton of research and have had people quote the job but I want to do it myself to save money. My question is whether I am better to rip out my ceilings, add more insulation, and then double drywall with 5/8 or if I could get away with just adding a second layer of 5/8 with green glue and still have some reduction in noise. Any advice is appreciated before I start! submitted by /u/Orangeorangeorange7 [link] [comments]
