I am at around the year and a half mark with my tinnitus and in the last half year I’ve been going in and out of not caring about tinnitus. Is this normal? I’m really nervous my whole life’s going to be a roller coaster. Is it possible to habituate if I have anxiety and depression issues. Thank...

I can pop and rumble my tinnitus ear very easily. I have jaw popping, cracking and crunching. It makes rumble noises after loud sounds. It’s not good for me to look for a cure because it affects my habituation but I’m wondering what to do. Been to dentist and many doctors and nothing. What...

Happy for you. Just to let you know though, tinnitus is not uncommon. It is actually extremely common.

@Bill Bauer hi Bill thanks for your response. I edited my post to add one thing maybe the most important who knows. When I wake in the middle of the night and move my head from side to side in silence or up and down, I get the crackling sound. None of this stuff happened before I had T. Does...

So for as long as I’ve had tinnitus, I have this thing that’s got a little worse. Whenever there is a sound and I’m in quiet (like a soda pop can popped or I drop a thumbtack on a table) my ear gets a rumble and crackle for 2 seconds. I have been to an ENT and they found nothing. If I wake up...

Hi all, have had it for about 10 months and for some reason it’s really affecting me lately. A couple things I wanted to ask. - I have periods where I feel good for a week, then the thoughts take over and I feel bad for a week. So on and so forth. Is this normal with habituation or what. I...

Basically just looking for support from someone about my tinnitus cause it is super confusing to me and that bothers me just as much as the noise. Been to 3 ENT and 2 audiologist, no cause found. I woke up about 4 months ago with a tone in my head/ ear, it hasn't gone away since. I haven't...

Hi Jason, I was just wondering during this time did you feel like the tinnitus was in your brain and not your ears? Was it somatic?

Thanks for your detailed response fishbone. I have a question about H. Is it a pain you get with sounds or an emotional reaction? I’ve never liked noise and some unexpected noise causes me anxiety but I have never experienced ear pain.

I’m sorry to hear this, what caused yours And how loud is it? had it for a long time?

Being in the early stages of tinnitus, I have been very vocal with friends and family about my condition, well- being and what was going on. I am amazed at how many friends and family of mine claim they have tinnitus and it does not bother them at all. They either can only hear it if they...

i just want to bump this and see if anyone has T like mine. I am trying g to find a cause... My tinnitus ranges from mild to moderate, and feels like its in the left side of my brain. It varies in volume and pitch. Sometimes I can't even hear it if I'm trying, other times I'm locked in on it...

Before I start, I just wanted to say thank you to anyone taking the time to read this. I have had Tinnitus for 4 months now, and am still very bothered by it. I am probably bothered more now than I was in the beginning. I have anxiety and depression and take Prozac for these conditions. I...

Hi @VincentWinters I was using the search bar on this website and your story matches mine almost exactly. Woke up in the middle of the night and heard the high pitched ringing. A hiss also, and high pitched when I'm focused on it. I have no hearing loss and have been to an ENT and they said I...

And also, my audiologist tells me there is 50 million people with tinnitus. Hard to believe this considering there is only thousands on this sub struggling. How are others not struggling?
