I see one research company (can't remember it off the top of my head as the past few weeks are a bit of a blur, dipping my feet into every tinnitus recovery pool) is interested in personalizing tinnitus as a form of therapy, similar to phantom limb syndrome in PTSD patients.
Further, I find that my tinnitus is basically a complete non-factor the more I'm engrossed in things that require my full attention and that I actually enjoy—weightlifting, certain board/social games; it is however far more present during intense concentration on relatively aversive things (intensive research on non-hobby related topics, reading for school, etc.) I'm becoming more interested in virtual reality for the sheer entertainment of it and the more I can supplant my misery with enjoyable distractions, the better.
Does anyone find that their tinnitus is improved or eradicated through gameplay in VR?
If these experimental devices (LLLT, possibly Lenire) don't make meaningful contributions to my prognosis I'd rather just be constantly distracted with something enjoyable and drug myself to get to sleep to ensure some modicum of a "normal life".
