I wish I had hair loss problems being 31 years old like most friends have, instead of such ear problems.

Hi all, I’m desperate for any guidance or even just a few words of encouragement. I feel completely lost. My story is long and complicated, but I’ll try to explain it clearly. For the past 4 years, I’ve been dealing with tinnitus that is usually mild but unstable. I also get loud sound bursts...

Freakin' cicadas high season. Their level is surely above 90dB all day long, as I happen to live in a suburb with lots and lots and lots of pine trees. They often give me the scares that I hear dysacusis tones on their screech too.

Yeah, sure, fair points about placebo control and risk consideration. However, an ear with a cochlear implant is, by default, destroyed in the process, and that is vastly different from the ears of people with only sensorineural hearing loss, which they seem to highlight on their site...

I seem to be going through the same thing now. It started about a month ago as a beeping, reactive, and distorted tone, but it has now turned into more of a clicky Morse code sound. For a few days, I thought it was getting better because I did not notice it as much, but over the past few days...

Exactly. Tinnitus is a very serious condition, and I find it laughable that charlatans try to sell so-called treatments for over a thousand dollars. These often amount to nothing more than sound samples you could find on YouTube for free, combined with a few “learn to live with it” tips—advice...

Jesus Christ, what am I reading? Of course you were not improving after two years of TRT, because TRT is like trying to treat heart disease with “positive thoughts.” LOL.

Has anyone seen this new-ish video from Hough Ear Institute's YouTube channel? I know they have been scammy af so far, but I'd like to read any thoughts.

Your story sounds very similar to what I have been experiencing over the past few years. However, I did not take any SSRI or similar medication. It all seems to have happened to me without any clear cause. Over the last four years, my symptoms have been building up — tinnitus, TTTS, random...
