I hear you, but the depression just got too bad. I was seriously unable to enjoy anything and was hardly getting anything done at work at all,...
Thanks @billie48, that does help. I don't think Zoe Cartwright's story is the right thing for me - her case is far, far more severe than mine. But...
Sorry about the rant. I guess the most frustrating thing is that it won't stay stable and changes every other week or so, plus spikes. I'm sure...

Reporting back here. It's been a week now and there's definite improvement! I'm calmer, sleep better, am happier on the whole. I get stuff done at...
I know loads of musicians with tinnitus. I've learned pretty much everything I know about music already after getting tinnitus, including music...
So here's how I've been doing so far: after the initial elevation last night, I took another capsule today in the morning and didn't notice a...
I PMed you
I totally agree, that's all I'm trying to do, too. And I also feel like I'm obssessing more over it this time, although it's hard to tell because...
I know exactly what you describe - prior to my increase, I sometimes didn't know if I still had tinnitus or not. I think if I then tried to find...

Just started taking 5-HTP, will report The subject says it all! I'm getting out of a major depression and am hoping to help the process along....
One more thought: obviously, I didn't just start going to shows right away, I first had to go through the entire cycle of worrying too much. But...
Well the number one cause of tinnitus spikes is worrying about tinnitus spikes, that much I can tell you and that's why I was asking if you're...
This seems like it could work very well! I was having a bit of a rough day, just tried it and felt better IMMEDIATELY! It's hard to teach yourself...
Interesting... I work in a relatively small office with just three other people. We all have newer MBPs, so no towers or anything like that, no...

Very interesting. I have my laptop on at home at all times, but maybe it's the external screens I use at work, or one of the other computers. I'll...
Just an observation I wanted to share. In the past couple of weeks, my T has gotten quite intensive, weirdly enough it gets intensive at work. I...
Neil, I'm sorry to hear about your mom. I guess I don't need to tell you that shouldn't stop you from living your life. I have OCD as well, and...
This post is so ridiculously good it made me want to write an inspirational post myself, except I find it hard to find anything to add to this!...
Hey Neil, "which I can do because I test my hearing a lot." - That's your first mistake right there. I can't back this up with hard scientific...
Hey July, My second one was so difficult to mask at first, and also very high pitched! You're just three weeks in, trust me it gets better. My...
Oh yeah, and the seizure drug stuff is crazy, that's actually something I've never heard before. Pretty much 110% guarantee no "regular" German...
