I wonder how tinnitus would fit into the topic.
Doesn’t seem to help 🫠
I've had chronic intermittent tinnitus my whole life, can't really say it helps me concentrate when it's flaring up.
Edit: I went looking for samples of pink and brown noise, and the brown sample I found claims to help relieve tinnitus. Since my flare-ups are sometimes accompanied by headaches or vertigo, I'll check it out and see if it helps me at all.
ADHD + tinnitus here, and my tinnitus frequencies shift around too. I made white and brown noise clips in Audacity, then notched out the frequencies of my varying tinnitus. I play it on repeat and found it very helpful. Although the tinnitus always comes back, I can focus while listening.
If you want help with creating your own files or just want me to make them for you, DM me.
I've actually heard violet/purple noise or maybe blue noise is preferable for tin
I'll check it out, I had it bad this weekend.
Something something higher frequency spectrum
