    Don't Know What to Do Anymore

    So sorry T started for you so young. I have had it for about a year now. I try to think about the ringing in my ears as little as possible. I try to focus on other things as I go about my day. T is the pits... but try to keep your mind elsewhere whenever you can. :cool:

    High-Pitch and Low-Pitch Modes

    Hi ... My name is Nancy. I have had Tinnitus for almost a year. The two things that affect my tinnitus the most are talking with my cell next to my ear instead of on speaker. The other thing is stress. I have two modes. One is high pitch and one is low pitch. I have been relieved to be in...
