This is the one. It’s a perfect relaxation show.

Three-ish years. We live in different countries, and covid happened.

I cope pretty well with it. Some people get really depressed when it happens to them. Im okay if there’s noise. At night I listen to podcasts and use a fan next to my bed. At work it’s less noticeable, although fir some reason people think it’s fine to be mean if a coworker can’t hear very well.

For me I had intermittent ringing for a year or two. It would always go away quickly. Then, one morning, I woke up with this much louder chirping sound that’s always there.

I was a metal head. Too many gigs and loud earbuds.

Im the same as you. In my 50’s. My hearing is severely damaged, and my right ear whistles like a thousand sex-crazed crickets 24/7.

Haha. Im not alone! A very similar thing happened to me, except I said that Trump needs a metal-bikini-clad dancing girl to strangle him with her chain. Perma ban. Same appeal. Same result. Maybe they’re not Star Wars fans.

Anyway, now I have lemmy and I think I prefer it.
