    Slight/Mild Tinnitus

    I have moderate T which I'm fine with right now. I even went to a couple of parties and concerts again and no changes. With earplugs, watching where I stand and magnesium and vitaminpills that is. I'm still nervous when I go, but I just love live music too much to not go. When I just got it, I...

    Stopped Smoking: It's Gone Mad

    I went through the same thing in january and after a couple of days it went away. You just have to hang in there. Don't have any other advice for you I'm afraid. Just keep going. You will thank yourself later.

    Is Hearing Loss Supposed to Hurt?

    Since I experience tinnitus I get all kinds of weird physical sensations in both my ears. They feel blocked and sometimes hurt. They've never felt like their normal selves again. I'm really afraid of flying as well, since my ears sometimes feel like theire going to explode because of the...

    Concert — Rihanna — Earplugs/Earmuffs

    I really really feel for you, but why did you go with the airplane plugs when you knew that they weren't meant for handling concerts? :( I would try to mask the spike you're having right now and take some vitamins. They always make me feel better. Don't know if it actually works but the...

    A Question to the Community: Could My Tinnitus Have Been Avoidable?

    Thanks for taking the time to respond everyone! I must say that my feelings of guilt are slowly diminishing over time. In the beginning I was so mad and disappointed with myself. But it seems to get less and less. My T isnt that bothersome anymore. I even went to a concert again. With...

    A Question to the Community: Could My Tinnitus Have Been Avoidable?

    Sorry to hear that man. I don't know what's worse, getting it because of your own stupidity or because of someone else's. Did you have any hearing tests done before you got tinnitus?

    A Question to the Community: Could My Tinnitus Have Been Avoidable?

    Exactly! I would feel alot better about it if I knew that I wouldve gotten it sooner or later. I keep going back to that night and feel stupid. But maybe I would have gotten it anyways. N0t a very constructive thing to think about, but it makes you wonder.

    A Question to the Community: Could My Tinnitus Have Been Avoidable?

    Hello there, I often wonder about something. Basically it comes down this. I got T in june, 2015 from standing to close to speakers at a dub-reggae party. The people who have experienced these kind of parties know how loud those sessions can get. I had a few too many drinks and forgot to put...

    I Don't Know If I'm Strong Enough

    I was in your situation 8 months ago and I was wondering the exact same thing. I'm also a sensitive person and prone to quickly give up and generally being pessimistic about things. I've suffered from panic attacks for years. Some of them were induced by health concerns like constantly being...

    Prevent Further Damage to Your Ears — Have a Protection Plan

    "In reality even plugs alone at 33nr aren't the solution if it's too noisy for a long time - once you get damaged ears the threshold level to get further damage goes down considerably." I was wondering if you could back this up or is it just personal experience? I havent gone to anything loud...
