        I might be in the same program that you are. I wear a Widex hearing aid with four different types of Zen tones.

      How do you fall back to sleep once awakened by the noise?

        Sound enrichment. That works for me. On the most part I can fall asleep without it, but occasionally I do wake up and the noise does my head in, so I just wack on a box fan sound on my phone. Always helps me :)

    Tinnitus Since:
    05/2016
    Cause of Tinnitus:
    Unknown possibility TMJ
    Hi, I’m not sure how it started it is only my left ear. Received no help from first audiologist he told me to learn to live with it. I finally found Hearing Wellness Center in Duluth. Dr fitted me with hearing aides that are programmed with Zen programs to listen to. tinnitus retraining therapy.
    4,500.00 dollars. It has helped mildly and wearing them also seems to calm me a bit. 4 years into this I still have anxiety at night going to bed. In fact I dread going to bed that is when loudest. I became addicted to night time sleeping meds over he counter. After time I had to quit cause I would feel to tired after waking and had no energy. I’ve found alcohol makes it worse. I’m most now interested in CBT I’ve been reading about . I would just like to be able to go to bed again and sleep more then a couple hours. It’s hard to feel normal. I’m thinking it was TMJ I had a bad case of that the click of my jaw shot to my ear. Where do I start with accepting?
    thank you.
