    Brai3n Tinnitus Clinic

    As for people with tinnitus "topping themselves left right and centre...." this is another often-quoted myth. The only actual study of suicide with tinnitus was a VA study in the US by Martz et al (2018) that looked at more than 750,000 veterans with and without tinnitus. This study showed that...

    How Many People Have Committed Suicide on This Forum?

Because that number will far outweigh any count of those who committed suicide...

    A psychiatrist told me I don’t have to be scared, because I’m not dying from my symptoms. Is there a profound truth to this? I told him that I am dying from these symptoms, if these symptoms are driving me to suicide.

    I think it’s wrong that euthanasia is illegal in most countries. There should be suicide pills and a peaceful way out if someone’s tinnitus gets so bad. Especially as there is no limit as to how bad it can get. Life is pointless anyway and our human lives mean nothing so why should people...
