Does anyone else find absolute silence difficult to deal with? In particular difficult to sleep in complete silence?
I think it started from a young age, being obsessed with music. Falling asleep with music.
As an adult, I still struggle with this and need some form of audio to drift off, be it music or something else.
More recently, I find stand-up comedy works best - it's light-hearted and doesn't require too much thought.
I think I have a strange version of tinnitus where instead of ringing I'll feel pulses as vibrations in my ear, it syncs with my heartbeat.
I think that's a known glitch where the heart beat doesn't go away after you get critically injured, it should be patched in the next update.
It's called pulsatile tinnitus.
