Have you found anything that helps?

For me, it's a matter of training my brain to ignore it. I can go hours without noticing it, but now that we are talking about it, I can hear a constant high frequency pulsing.

Eventually I will get distracted, stop caring that i have it, and I won't notice it any more.

How did you trian your brain? Were there any techniques you used? I have a Tinnitus mask but don't like wearing it all the time.

I went through something like this. A sound machine helped a lot. I also have a Bluetooth wrap for sleeping.

Yep. It appeared out of nowhere 25 years ago and I spent a whole week in the hospital. It never went away and I just got used to it
