What Do You Do to Take Your Mind Off the Tinnitus?

I decided to do a charcoal mask. Tomorrow a hair cut. My tinnitus hasn't been horrible but it hasn't been pleasant and I'd like to still keep going on with my life.




Post a picture of what helps you or what you do for distraction.

 

Awesome! Let me know how it works, I keep reading about charcoal masks.

Right now my distraction is a ridiculous Disney emoji game on my phone. I'm dealing with day three of a headache from a spinal tap, but it resolves every time I lay down. Which gives me the perfect opportunity to play a game meant for kids. Proudly -- or embarrassingly enough -- I hold the current game high score.

 

I mix music. I haven't had to adjust this part of my lifestyle because I never got H (knock on wood), and because I always adhered to the advice of mixing at low levels. I do crank it from time to time to get an idea of how it translates when loud, but this is only for a few seconds, and I'm in the 82dB range. Mixing is so right brain intensive that I CANT think of anything else while I'm doing it, so it's more than just the music covering up the T.
