    How to Manage Reactive Tinnitus Setback?

    OK, I never try to mask it. The problem is that when I’m driving, when the window of the room I’m in is open and there’s noise outside, when I turn on the air conditioning, or in many other situations where I’m not in complete silence, the reactive tinnitus kicks in. It’s horrible because it’s...

    Neosensory — Bimodal Stimulation Device for Tinnitus: Any Reviews? A Scam or Not?

    That sounds really great! Thanks a lot for your feedback. I think I’d like to try something like that. Maybe I’ll give it a go once I’ve saved up some money. I know it won’t be a miracle cure for my bad tinnitus, but it could be nice to have something else to focus on. I’d also be interested in...

    @hey Thanks for your kind words, that meant a lot to me. I tell that to myself, but my situation is always getting worse. T related and HL related. I'm struggling to get through every single day. Maybe I can overcome this, but not very hopeful this time.

    Talking with people makes my new ultra high pitched electric sound go wild. I can stand in silence without much problem, read a book and so on. A little chat or something on TV, and it worsens a lot a it´s highly noticeable. I don´t know how to handle this. It seems like the end.

    Suicidal

    I can relate so much to you. I’ve been worsening since I first got tinnitus nine years ago. At first, it didn’t bother me too much. Over the years I’ve had many setbacks, but I always managed to get by somehow. Still, it has kept worsening steadily. I have some hearing loss in my left ear...

    Poll: Would You Trade Your Tinnitus for a 5-Year Prison Sentence?

    I would take 30 years in prison over tinnitus. I'm not joking at all. Also, I would trade my legs for a reduction of only half of the tinnitus volume. I told this to my therapist, and at first, he thought that I was joking. The general public doesn't know how this condition makes us suffer.

    Going to Dentist: What Preventive Drugs and Steps Should Someone with Tinnitus Consider?

    Did I hear that the laser machine itself makes a very high-pitched noise? I guess you can use earplugs since there wouldn´t be an occlusion effect.

    Suicidal

    The "relief" that I experienced is nothing close to silence. I still had many sounds and annoyances, but the new electric ultra high-pitched sound was much less severe. I adapted to having sounds all over my head. If I'm suicidal now is because this sound cuts through everything and is...

    I know it doesn't makes any sense but this thing appears to force me to the end of me on purpose. I want to live. I want to win. But man...

    Why when I adapted to my multiple tones, hissings and hearing loss do I have to develop an ultra-high pitch electric sound?

    Suicidal

    Guys, there's no need for this. Please keep as calm as you can. I know we are facing difficult situations, but this doesn't help. I wish the best to all of you.

    Minimizing Risk of Hearing Damage / Worse Tinnitus: 3-Hour Flight vs. 30-Hour Train Ride?

    I would choose the train because I had problems equalizing the pressure even before I got tinnitus. If you don't have this problem, I would choose the plane.
