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 have tinnitus, so absolute silence is never enjoyable for me. Music works extremely well; I fall asleep with the tv on.
When I read the title of the post, I immediately wondered if anybody else with tinnitus had commented yet.
“Silence” sounds amazing, would love to try it some time 😅
I Think I might too. Need to get checked. Always a low humming. Sometimes high pitch ringing. But I meant more of not being able to settle my mind.
