>have tinnitus
>it literally causes me trauma to not be hooked into electronics and escapist machinations
Not that I ever did anything anyway, but now I truly comprehend the pain of the outside world.
I know your pain op I've shot so many rounds indoors it ruined the hearing in my left ear and the constant ringing drives me insane. How did yours happen?

I can't imagine it. It's like a world where sound doesn't exist

It's not even the lack of sound that's horrifying, it's what replaces it. And it's also inevitable.

>Have tinitus?
Place the palms of your hands over your ears with fingers resting gently on the back of your head. Your middle fingers should point toward one another just above the base of your skull. Place your index fingers on top of you middle fingers and snap them (the index fingers) onto the skull making a loud, drumming noise. Repeat 40-50 times. Some people experience immediate relief with this method. Repeat several times a day for as long as necessary to reduce tinnitus.

How are you distracting yourself from the tinnitus at the moment, if you are?
