    Earwax Impaction (?) I Need a Beer, or 10.

    Aaaand my ear also sounds like a blown out speaker, alongside the raging T. Calling tomorrow for an appointment to get it cleared out and I'll come with updates in the upcoming week.

    Earwax Impaction (?) I Need a Beer, or 10.

    So my right ear feels clogged and the ringing is at an all time high. Doctor told me a few months back I had a bunch of earwax in it and that if you feel it gets clogged and can't hear as well that it's probably an earwax impaction. Probably gonna make an appointment tomorrow to get the earwax...

    Hey Y'all, I've Been Completely Habituated to My Tinnitus for Around 2 Years Now

    T is raging as I type this but I can decide to zone in and out of it. I don't know, it's weird. The brain is a powerful thing.

    Hey Y'all, I've Been Completely Habituated to My Tinnitus for Around 2 Years Now

    Hey y'all, just checking in on everyone. Hope all is well, I've completely habituated to my T and have been habituated for around 2 years now. Life is good. Well, currently a broke college kid so a couple million would be nice. Believe it or not, it will get better. Keep fighting, look at memes...

    AM-101 in the Treatment of Acute Tinnitus (TACTT3)

    Do you think they'll still let me participate even if I'm all the way in Miami?

    AM-101

    Mine is definitely noise induced so I'm pretty sure the cochlea is playing a part in this horrific noise in my head. Since am101 focuses on the cochlea, I don't see why it wouldn't help.

    Everyone Has Tinnitus

    If everyone had real tinnitus, to the extent that many of us have it on here, a cure would have most definitely came out ages ago. So in my opinion, no, not everyone has tinnitus.

    The Story of Gaby Olthuis

    Maybe it would have been better to have placed it in another category, though. Not the type of thing someone in need of support wants to see.

    The Story of Gaby Olthuis

    Personally, I'm glad you shared this. Tinnitus has the potential to be horrible and debilitating, and I'm pretty sure plenty of us know that. That poor woman just saw no way out. It's not a matter of want, it's a matter of need, and what we need is a cure. Tinnitus can be deadly.

    The more people that get t the more pressure on science for a cure. Which is good, but I would never wish t on ANYONE.

    So the go-karting incident spiked my T in my right ear, and now a PLATE, A DAMN PLATE spiked my T in my left ear.

    Have you had to habituate a second time and were successful?

    My spike just happened recently, do you think I should give it some more time to "heal" or something? Is there any chance it'll go back to base line in a couple of months?

    I completely habituated, and now I'm devastated again, this sucks.

    ' I used to go checking for it when I had mild T, since this sudden increase in volume I can hear it over almost everything it really is annoying!!! Thank god for the shower though. Also, I wake up with an upset stomach almost every day now, it's horrible.

    I completely habituated, and now I'm devastated again, this sucks.

    We all went out to an arcade because it was my friends birthday, it was a pretty fun night actually. But jesus christ I was not expecting this to be in store for me. The thing is I've had this for years and I've gone to much louder places and it hasn't increased one bit, it didn't affect it at...

    I completely habituated, and now I'm devastated again, this sucks.

    I had the ear pressure a couple days back, it was downright annoying! Luckily that went away, unfortunately the T stays. It's like an unwelcomed guest that you just can't seem to get rid off no matter how hard you try. It's funny cause I literally didn't think about T at all anymore, it was a...

    I completely habituated, and now I'm devastated again, this sucks.

    God, yes I know you're absolutely right. I'm a mess at the moment, though. It's like a vicious cycle, I can't stop checking it and I keep thinking it'll be gone but it's still there. Coming to terms with this is hard. I'm really trying to stay positive man, it really is hard.

    I completely habituated, and now I'm devastated again, this sucks.

    Nothing, time just passed and I guess I became "immune" to the T, lol, weird I know. But this is a whole other story, this T just won't quit. I've lost my appetite, my mood has decreased greatly in the past couple of weeks, and I've become quite anxious. I feel really alone because no one in my...

    I completely habituated, and now I'm devastated again, this sucks.

    No, and I can't stop beating myself up over that. The thing is I completely forgot about T. God I hate being negative but this T just doesn't leave me alone it's so bothersome.

    I completely habituated, and now I'm devastated again, this sucks.

    I could always hear a slight ringing in my ears for as long as I can remember, but it wasn't until fathers day, 2010, that it increased, and trust me I noticed. But that's besides the point, I completely overcame that, I did have shitty days when I kept monitoring my T to see if it was still...
