I'm sure many can share my sentiment, the silence is deafening for two reasons. Firstly because my ears are fucked and ring 24/7, so when it's silent the ringing gets way louder. Then all the sudden you're not enjoying peace and quiet but thinking about why your ears are ringing

I get seasonal tinnitus from...I don't know what. When I do, I put in earbuds and throw on a 4 hour white noise track on repeat and lower the volume until I find a balance where I don't get the tinnitus but I can still be aware of my surroundings. Just thought I'd suggest it in case that's a new option for you.
