May I just say how grateful I am for Dr. Stephane Pigeon and his incredible MyNoise website? I've had tinnitus since 2021. My audiologist told me at my diagnosis that there was no treatment, only two options: cognitive behavioral therapy 'to learn to live with it', or antipsychotic medication 'to deal with the sleep deprivation'.

Dr. Pigeon's site offers dozens of incredibly customizable streaming sound options for masking tinnitus or blocking out other noises. Synthetic, recorded in nature, musical... you name it. The Neuromodulator, Brood X, and Hurricane Irma recordings have done more for my tinnitus than my audiologist was ever able to manage. Dark Water, Sea Organ, Twilight, and Ice World have been super helpful during tense times at work. The Audio Jammer one has been fantastic at making up for the fact that my company moved to an open-floor everyone-except-four-people-in-cubicles plan instead of individual offices for much of the staff. And the list goes on.

I can't recommend MyNoise enough.

I will have to give this a try. I've lived with tinnitus since my 20s, if not earlier.

I'm having fun just playing with the first one. This is great. :)
