as a musician i have the tunes "on" 24/7 but it's usually either my own music or some goddamn ad jingle i can't turn off. the latter hasn't happened in years, btw. i feel for those of you who suffer with unavoidable mental noise. although i suffer from a different kind, serzone+seroquel seems to help. i have tinnitus also-too many years at too high a volume-but i've pretty much gotten used to it-at its current level. when it increases-and certain meds have caused this-it's unbearable. i couldn't imagine a full-time version of those slogans that i can't get rid of. they're ALWAYS insufferably stupid. once, while training, the BRANE decided to enervate me with a tape loop of the latest taco-stench add. i literally pulled to the side of the road and yelled, "brain??OHHHH BRAINNNNNN???????? with ALL the killer music we've heard this is the best you can do? i swear when we get home i'm gonna find the RECIEPT for your worthless arse and we're going RIGHT BACK to wherever you came from for a REFUND!!! DO YOU HEAR ME BRAIN????????"
of course it didn't work but it sure gave some drivers a good laugh.
here's a totally off the wall suggestion. i have no idea if this will help at all. what about listening to something so wild and crazy that your mind wouldn't even know how to process/what to make of it? like some freely-improvised music? if anyone wants to try this i can lead you in the right direction. i hope you find relief somewhere. and i hope i made you laugh.
