    Tinnitus from Alcohol Withdrawal

    ...onset. I don't think there's much you can do, other than waiting it out. What I have to say though is, don't beat yourself up by thinking the alcohol withdrawal was the reason for it. It may be idiopathic or maybe there's a (treatable) cause for it. For such a mysterious thing like tinnitus...

    Alcohol Causing Tinnitus?

    I have no actual knowledge of this, but I've never heard of alcohol causing tinnitus. I do know that existing tinnitus can get louder with alcohol use, though. Could it have something to do with an infection, blood pressure or something with your jaw/teeth, perhaps? Btw, 16000 seems very very...

    I Took Some Zopiclone and the Tinnitus Stopped

    I know alcohol withdrawal can make your hearing more sensitive, tinnitus is actually a symptom of alcohol withdrawal, I don't want to try any medications and I'm no good at tapering, just like when I quit smoking last year I found out I have to just go cold turkey. Maybe in a few weeks when the...

    At first I avoided many things but mainly coffee and alcohol because I was afraid of spikes. But after a while the fear for spikes faded and I started drinking both again.

    Alcohol Quiets Down My Tinnitus

    Alcohol Quiets Down My Tinnitus

    Too much alcohol makes you overweight and is very hard on your body, my uncle is an alcoholic and it's really sad to see what that's doing to him.

    Ultra Loud Tinnitus Following a Night Out

    I'm sure too much alcohol will effect T on its own, even without the loud music! Alcohol puts physical stress on your body as well if you drink too much, dehydration, raised body temperature, head ache, which leads to mental stress etc - all affects T. Like anything I guess - 'in moderation' is...

    Spike from Loud Music (Approx 90 dB) or Maybe from Alcohol? Or Maybe Just a Product of Worrying?

    I think that if you are an alcoholic or someone who drinks everyday this may be an issue. But drinking casually a couple times a week shouldn't be an issue.

    Tinnitus Caused by Drinking Alcohol at a Party

    It is not common cause for alcohol to trigger tinnitus. Perhaps it may come from something else and your drinking alcohol is just a coincidence. It is a good idea to see an ENT to check out the ears and if there is too much ear wax then the ENT can deal with it. Micro-suction can cause problem...

    I haven't drank alcohol since getting tinnitus and before I didn't drink much at all (I thought it wasn't worth the expense). I was wondering if a glass of wine helps or a small amount of alcohol. I do not believe in drinking a lot. However, I wanted to get people's experiences either short...

    Alcohol Is Not an Approved Treatment

    Yeah, alcohol does calm you down same... works somewhat the way benzos do. But of course, heavy alcohol use carries big risks, including addiction (just like benzos). If your suffering is due to anxiety (which I assume it is, as it is for a lot of tinnitus folks), you could try a benzo like...

    Alcohol and Its Effect on Tinnitus

    I had pretty bad worsening three months ago when going through benzo (Xanax) withdrawal. I took 1mg of it every night for 1 month. And I unfortunately drunk some alcohol that time too. I am not sure if it is connected, but it might be. Now I am just scared to drink as much alcohol as I did before.

    Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) Can Lead to Tinnitus — Could Blood Thinners Help?
