No luck with that method for me. Wtf anecdata: I’ve had about 24 hours of peace from this my adult life and the only thing I could ever attribute that silence to was that it followed some random supermarket probiotics I started taking, for no good reason than it was a new fad and I wanted to see if anything would happen. That was apparently a one time deal, no repeats.

I can usually ignore or distract it away. Until I’m reminded of it by articles like these and it tries to consume me.

Sorry, you stuck with this so far. I think for most people, it fades away over the years. Luckily my episode of noise faded and was probably triggered by some lifestyle change at the beginning of the pandemic. However, I also have visual snow and think my brain just isn't very good at hiding its inner workings from me, may be just a matter of attention, rather than some "somatic" defect. I think the fact, you had a period of absence is promising and worth exploring and playing around.
