    Tinnitus Classification for the General Public

    Many debates have been raging here about the lack of awareness (or distinction) between different tinnitus levels amongst the general public, which is only amplified by the ignorance about this condition in the medical field and reinforced by propaganda from various so called tinnitus...

    CO2 and Smoke Alarms

    Just wondering how are you guys feeling about having them inside your homes? I think most of the new homes have them already hardwired in. Either way, if your house was to burn down, first thing that the insurance investigators will focus on will be the whether you had them or not and act...

    Tinnitus International Database of Patient Data?

    This idea just kind of came to me... What if every new tinnitus sufferer was automatically entered into some kind of unified North American, European (or even world) database with information such as suspected cause, description of sound(s), severity, sex, age, location... etc. All the existing...

    Crippled by Sound... Uncensored Truth About Tinnitus

    That will be the title of a book (more like a booklet maybe), which I intend to publish eventually. I never wrote a book before and right now I don't have a slightest clue how to even go about it... but I will eventually find all the ins and outs. Being debilitated by Tinnitus for about 2-3...

    Indoor Gun Range Decibel Levels

    Just out of curiosity... Has anyone taken a decibel meter to an indoor gun range and if so, what were the results? It has been some time since I set my foot in one of those...well before my Tinnitus started. I remember that the standard ear muffs did a great job at protecting me back then (at...

    Theory on Possible Tinnitus Elimination

    Assuming that the theory about tinnitus being caused by neuroplasticity as the brain is trying to bridge the gap in hearing (usually at higher frequencies) is correct, I wonder what would happen if the far end of this "bridge" simply got removed? Since most people lose hearing in high...

    Intelligence and Neuroplasticity Connection?

    Assuming that neuroplasticity does indeed cause tinnitus by trying to compensate for the gaps in hearing frequencies of course. Just wondering if there is some kind of a connection, because all of the members on here seem very intelligent and articulate... I find that pretty rare compared to...

    Tinnitus Awareness and the Sad Reality

    Just thought I would touch on this topic. In my own anecdotal findings about one person out of ten has ever heard of it (or in the better case scenario knows what it is). Myself, I was in the majority group before this as well and I honestly had no idea, thay something like this was even...

    Hi folks... I have signed up for the Audio Notch sound therapy but have a major problem determining frequency...there is no steady tone to go by, it's more like electrical storm thats has multiple components to it. Does anyone know if there is a correlation between tinnitus and the audiogram...

    Why Is It Not Recommended to Completely Mask the Tinnitus?

    Ok so I have found that some days I'm able to use bit of background noise (for sleep) without the tinnitus whipping itself into high pitched sweat inducing eeeeeeeee, that would always be louder than anything else, which would force me to abandon any sound enrichment efforts fot the night. This...

    Sleeping Pills Advice?

    Hi... I'm currently going through complete hell as I'm not sleeping. Was prescribed amitriptyline (I take 2x 10mg pills) which works sometimes, but about one out of 3 attempts. Was also prescribed Trazodone 50mg which did not work for me at all, although I admit I only tried it once. Now my...

    Habituation Concerns

    I developed this sleep robbing, life destroying condition about 2 months ago from possible long term noise exposure... I keep hearing the word "habituation" quite often, but then I'm reading all these depressing posts from people whom suffered this brutal torture for 10+ years and it doesn't...
