I've been having these sudden spikes in my tinnitus lately. Obviously really annoying but has anybody been experiencing this due to the weather? ChatGPT said that the sudden drop in Barometric Pressure coincides with my spikes, but other factors like emotions and sinus congestion could be contributing. Dealing with another sudden spike but my sinuses seem to be just fine now.
I want to die, my tinnitus has only gotten worse over the past six years.
Now I hear something like the sound of a vacuum cleaner, and my other sounds are more intense (high-pitched sounds, electrical sounds, the sound of a dental drill, Morse code, the sound of pipes). I can't sleep at all
I live locked up in my home, I don't know what is causing this worsening. Could it be the Mirtazapine?
thanks for asking. No I haven't. I'm having a really bad day today. I washed my hair for the first time in 2 weeks and I've caused a major spike. I was on antibiotics last week and I took a sleeping tablet every day with the 7 day course. Last night was my first night off antibiotics and sleeping pills and I only slept for about an hour. Think I'm hooked on the sleeping tablets even though I only get about 4 hours sleep with them, its still better than the usual none or one hour.
I'm demented with this. I fight suicidal thoughts every day. I'm seeing a private audiologist who specialises in hyperacusis but that too is really extreme. I just don't have the energy to kill myself but this is so difficult to live with. Are you better? How do you cope with this?
