I wanted to come back to this thread and thank you guys for talking me out of suicide a few weeks back. Not sure how it’s possible but it seems I started improving drastically after a very loud unexpected sound exposure (yea I know that sounds crazy). I have since started sound therapy. Thank...

All I can say is that most people have successfully gone on benzos for tinnitus & then have tapered off; preferably with the close supervision of a doctor or being aware to do it in small stages & sometimes by taking another medication in its place before tapering off them. Most people's...

Hey guys, if you're thinking about giving up please join the Ukrainian militia. It won't be considered suicide so no victim blaming from society, and you'll be remembered as heroes! Just a thought.

I like arguing against people who are anti suicide.

@LadyDi I claim ignorance about the suicide thread; but you may be right. I just posted on the 'face value' of this thread; by no means did I want to make comment about suicide thread. Mark

...into this and it is likely to subside. Do what you need to do in order to get through day to day. I know that things are difficult now, but suicide is not the answer. Many people only make their situation much worse with botched suicide attempts - it’s not a road you want to go down. In any...

A little known fact, about suicide, is that Africans have always had historically very low rates of suicide, and those who were enslaved in America had surprising low rates of it, as well - lower than the free white population. After emancipation, the suicide rate of African Americans remained...

Indeed it is pretty hard to post something – anything – post-mortem. But see this previous update of mine regarding stats on suicide and tinnitus (which contradicted the prior opinion that tinnitus does not lead to an increase in suicides – particularly for those with severe tinnitus...)...

I honestly can't relate. Sure because of the anguish of my T and H I have thought about suicide. Many here have. But I wouldn't do it because I love life. Its more like depressing this burden has been placed upon us which detracts from quality of life but certainly not enough to consider...

That's totally not true. Almost every religion looks down on suicide, and they actually have more severe punishments for those who commit it. The exception would be Islam but only if you do it for the Jihad. That's just another proof that religion serves mostly one purpose: control the masses...

...can have a huge impact on some people Typical Daily Mail inaccurate headline though, the headline says 10% of women with tinnitus attempt suicide, whereas the study actually showed 10% with severe tinnitus attempt suicide, big difference. The study author says “'The take home message is...

Couldn’t have said it better. I want to be here for the day where I can finally say “I beat it!”.

You want to commit suicide over 8 dB tinnitus??? Trust me, it's a non issue. You will get there, I've seen it countless times...

I am sorry to learn that you feel that way but the research shows what it shows. Without wanting to trivialize what you feel, thinking about suicide is much more common that committing suicide (thank goodness). Your emotional state may suggest you should discuss this further with your doctor.

Human beings are such that suicidal ideation is not uncommon. Committing one is. The brain must be messed up for a person to commit suicide, meaning a person has to have major depression... Nobody commits suicide only because of tinnitus.

...studies which have found no association after adjusting for all comorbidities. someone with tinnitus might be slightly more likely to commit suicide than the average person but even that is pretty debatable based on the data we have at present. people with T who lol themselves tend to be...

Unbearably loud to the point of wanting suicide isn't there.

...is shocking to me how this is possible. I don't know how to describe it anymore. It is almost "aggressive." I think I am supposed to commit suicide. I don't want to die but if the tinnitus is like this, I would rather die than listen to this 24/7. I cannot mask it. I want support to commit...

I know you're not trolling. I think some are just beyond frustrated. I understand that and I wish I could help them. Btw, I had some wonderful Thai food last night! :) what's your favorite dish?

What?? Yes there is a big difference but, someone determined enough with half a brain can indeed commit suicide, I am not saying it is exactly easy, but no one is stopping you from doing it.

He is planning suicide from what I gather. Statistically speaking people that talk about suicide are less likely to kill themselves than people that don't talk about it. But I don't know about autists, I'm worried he's serious based on some previous similar situations I've read about.

Yes and it does nothing. That's not true at all in fact suicide is pretty moderate. Better than tinnitus at least.

The thought of suicide is the only thing that comforts me. I cannot continue living like this.

Yeah I got diagnosed adjustment disorder because I'm not coping to my severe tinnitus. I suppose I should be more flexible to having been screwed over by life.

RIP Joe. I wish I could follow you. I am also very suicidal. I try to stay alive every day for another day. But my tinnitus is so catastrophic, it is unbearable for me. I am close to considering assisted suicide. It is pure hell every day, every night.

Suicide is an inevitable consequence in this modern world. We need to treat it similarly as an environmental killer rather than saying it is a personal choice. The truth is that humans are impulsive animals who cannot completely control their emotions and choices. You look both ways on the...

I personally think that we should think twice before posting anything related to suicide and tinnitus. Unfortunately I think when tinnitus hits us the scary thought of suicide passes through our minds. I wasn't an exception. What do you think will go through a person's mind who just got...

Suicide.

Just to clarify the post by theoakapple, it was Kent Taylor, the founder of Texas Roadhouse who committed suicide due to severe tinnitus and perhaps other issues. Jerry Morgan replaced him.

Suicide is basically a no-brainer at this point. I feel so sad for my parents. I’ve discussed VAD with them, but they’re not willing to let me go. I’m gonna have to do it behind their backs. At least it won’t come as a shock to them, and at least I won’t be here to witness the massive pain I...

Wow, I never realized that 1 in 50 people commit suicide(!) It is clear that the sample is biased. Those who survive a suicide attempt are more likely to just want attention than those who don't. And we can't interview the ones who were successful. This myth makes as much sense as saying...

Same tiny piece of info isn't mentioned in your laws. I still wonder why. If you attempt suicide and you fail, there are repercussions. No one says that anywhere. I don't know if it would dissuade someone thinking about it... it might because not all suicide thoughts are impending signs it...

The following publication (statistical analysis) looked into the relationship between suicide attempts and tinnitus. It was found that for the sub-group who attempted suicide, severe tinnitus was more common. Key points were: The link to the publication (paywalled)...

This is a bullshit statement that I think should not have been allowed to remain in this thread. It is one mans bullshit opinion that is against all known research into suicide! I am absolutely disgusted that a doctor would place this quote in a support board!

European politicians are driving the Eurozone to an economic suicide by purchasing expensive American oil and gas, or by purchasing Russian oil from third countries at a hefty price. The middle men are making a ton of money while Europe is on the way to go bankrupt. Russia to cut oil output in...

Its odd explaining suicide to medical practitioners because I think that they think for people with tinnitus it's coming from this highly emotional self-destructive and spiteful point of view, where in reality it's just like a logical conclusion. Well that's how I always looked at it, just a...

Honestly I never considered it. It's just a permenant solution to a problem. At least it's a solution.

Horrendous, awful http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4044732/Murder-inquiry-two-members-family-die-seriously-injured-separate-incidents.html

I guess that would then be the source of the "0pen finding" principle.

...These conditions are so horrendous and even more so because we receive zero understanding from the medical community. 8 months ago, assisted suicide was a topic that wasn't of much concern or interest to me. Today, with my intense worsening and suffering, I am happy and relieved to know that...

You aren't kidding. Honestly, I have a few rational reasons to keep holding out, but a lot of it is just a fear of death, fear of suicide, fear of failing suicide, fear of ruining my loved ones' lives, etc. The crazy part of my story is I still don't know what's damaged in my inner ear. It's...

There is no difference in suicide rates between people with tinnitus and people without tinnitus. If statistics were kept on suicide rates for people with severe tinnitus, then there would probably be a slight difference. But not much. Human beings are surprisingly resilient. In fact, doctors...

When it comes to life or suicide, it is complete nonsense to warn of the addiction risk of benzodiazepines. A dead person does not have any withdrawal problem. In individual cases it is irresponsible to withhold benzodiazepines from severely suffering people. Does anyone have to make a suicide...

It isn't psychological. It's an ingrained survival instinct to protect the species. A lot of suicides are driven by anger at another turned inward, not by a desire to die. Anger can override the survival instinct. There's a book you should read, Suicide and Attempted Suicide, by Geo Stone...

...in this life. I am trying, at least a little, to be a Christian, and therefore, I have no other answers for you. Those who commit suicide are rejecting the greatest gift of life received from God. They spit in the face of God. And it's scary. You must endure to the end in order to be at...

No one here is advocating suicide. They are just fully empathising with feeling suicidal, as it is such an awful condition (if you really really suffer).

At least members of Tinnitus Talk who commit suicide because of tinnitus is not a taboo subject anymore and the sad news are given right away on the board, with no hesitation. Way to go @glynis and @Markku for changing the policy of Tinnitus Talk! Maybe we should make a list with members of...

NO. In my opinion, a mass suicide would just be chalked up to a suicide cult. I think if one want to make a difference, go to CNN headquarters, tell them you have tinnitus and that you no longer wish to live and give them a tape of your suicide admission that you prepared beforehand explaining...

...planning. But that does not equate "finding a way." I know multiple people who irrepairably wrecked their lives by a botched attempt at suicide. They say that "What does not kill us makes us stronger." But the truth is that, when it comes to suicide attempts, "what does not kill us puts us...

But if later more side effects kicked in and the AD worsened their tinnitus, please don’t say I didn’t say so.

...talked with you?! Maybe they read to many nagative posts and think there was no way out? No one knows what a person thinks when they commit suicide. Our brains are so complex. Our brains trick us into believing there is no happiness left. Suicide is so tragic and I really hope that if anyone...

Having written a suicide note last year, I am well aware that tinnitus can drive one to suicide. One of those links was actually an encouraging article about a woman who considered suicide but instead found support. While I am no longer suicidal, I still very much want a cure. But until we have...

Same with me, in my search to reassure myself I found the following video. But who could possibly know for sure!
