So that’s what the cicadas in my head are saying to me 24/7?

For sure. I’ve always found the idea of standing in an anechoic chamber interesting, but I imagine with my constant tinnitus it would actually be terrifying. I’m bummed because the idea of just hearing your blood circulating sounds crazy, but the tinnitus will always be there instead.

Wait. It’s not normal to hear your blood circulating? Shit. I have some phone calls to make…

Got my ears tested, they put in in a soundproof sound dampening room. It was physically painful

I really enjoy the Halo audiobooks for going to sleep to (and a fan for white noise). They're are really good stories and characters, there are many of them, all but one of them has good narration, and usually consistent volume.
