That’s exactly what I do. My mind just blocks it out.
The brain does amazing things. Years ago I had a cervical fusion of C5-C7, and it used titanium mesh and 6 screws in my cervical vertebrae. For a few weeks, every time I swallowed I could feel the hardware in my neck. Then one day it stopped. The Dr told me the brain blocks the signal coming from the irritation that the surgical hardware caused. It was automatic - I didn't try to block it out myself - my brain just did it.
I don't know if you can try to get your brain to block out tinnitus but it certainly is possible. I may try that myself while mine has not yet reached the 24/7 symptoms.
