A good way to deal with tinnitus is by trying to find sounds/background noise to tone it down or drown it out (and by drowning out I mean not loud, more like a gentle distraction). This can be anything from the sound of the rain, a shower, car with windscreen wipers on, the tumbling and rumbling of a dryer, a train, the winds, birds chirping, waves etc..

There are plenty of white noise generator apps available, just experiment and if you find something that seems to help set a timer. It will help getting to sleep. Rest is so important.

Note that if you're trying to habituate to the tinnitus, they recommend that you keep the masking noise just below the volume of the tinnitus. That way, your brain learns to ignore the noise in a way that it wouldn't if it were masked out entirely.
