I have had Tinnitus all my life, since I was a kid. At the beginning it was intermittent, now it's permanent, to a level where I understand why people have suicidal thoughts. Concentrating on tasks is quite difficult and every audiologist I visit tells me to deal with it because there is no cure.
What I find fascinating is that when I meditate or start falling asleep, I can consciously enter periods where it disappears or it becomes bearable. Like if I learn a trick with my brain in which I can mute it. Sadly entering it requires a lot of effort. And when I wake up or leave the meditation state (which is hard to reach because of the tinnitus) its impossible to reproduce it.
Mine I am sure is due to problems with my jaw (bruxism). One thing that helped with the jaw (but not the tinnitus since it is now fully embedded in my brain) was with botox injections. If you are on early stages and if you think the jaw is a main factor in your tinnitus, go to a neurodoctor and ask him for botox injections in order to treat it.
About the Lenire device, two things: it requires dedication and time, which I don't have, and you cannot event rent it. Selling it is also forbidden. In essence is an mp3 player which electrocutes your tongue. I have come with many such solutions and all are the same. Snake oil.
One last thing: the tinnitus is louder in periods where I experience more lack of sleep and stress / anxiety. It might sound cliche, but meditation, yoga, even going for a walk (no phone, no headphones, just a walk) really does work in reducing its volume.
