Tinnitus Talk Support Forum

I got it in 2011, it made me mad. But compared to today, it was really mild. I really experienced habituation. I did not hear it anymore after 2,5 years. The trick was 100% masking for sleep (not this mixing point TRT theory). And 100% masking in the office.

One day, I remember, I decided I dont want to listen this noisy fountaine with this little engine in my office anymore. And I just listened to my noise. Without emotion. And then, this went out of my conciosness...

The same happened in end 2017, I accepted it, and it went out of my concioussness later...

so all this habituation stories work, BUT I think only for mild tinnitus. I have had a happy life from 2013 to 2022

Now, it is so incredibly loud, that I cannot mask, I hear it 24/7. I cannot develop a neutral feeling to it. So I only have the VAD as an (bad) option. I am so tortured by it. It is terrible. No sleep, no relaxation in the day. I am completely broken

@KoolKat Regarding the device: Isnot it true, that the device works only for tinnitus that you can modify by neck or jaw movements? Unfortunately this is not possible for me.
