Separate names with a comma.
Well to be honest it was intermittent first, then steady, then intermittent again, then gone. Description of T here:...
Even if it does return, silence is a huge good sign. My T went away intermittently before it left for good.
Yeah, at least in my case, it doesn't have to be loud.. it just has to be consistent white noise. It fueled my T.
I had something like this. Do you use a fan at night or an air conditioner? Mine went away once I eliminated white noise while sleeping.
That poor guy. Thank you for posting this, OP. The sheer brutality of this condition (for many people) needs to be in the spotlight.
0/20 medical conditions cannot be cured. Our problems - every one of them - are physical. They are made of stuff. Stuff can be fixed. No excuses.
Well take a hard look because 10 people on this forum SHOWED their appreciation for my comment, which tells us all we need to know about the...
See my description of the problem here: https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/is-my-tinnitus-unusual-please-help-identify-it.1604/ Solution here:...
My philosophy is that if there is a problem, the only satisfactory outcome is to fix the problem. I will not accept it or try to contort my...
Agree with the OP. If my toilet wasn't working and the plumber arrived and he said "whelp, I'm not gonna fix your toilet, but here's some therapy...
It's usually an unwise option. But it is an option. It'll hurt those who love you if you do it, but your life is your own and you are not required...
OP, given that: 1. You are young (or look it) 2. Your tinnitus was not apparently caused by excessive noise or any other physical damage 3. You...
Wow. I too had tinnitus, once, but I must have missed the part where it gave me omniscient knowledge of everyone's tinnitus ever.
I got it and regretted it. Brain looked impeccable. Noise wasn't too bad (earplugs!) but MRIs do cause radiation which increase the odds of future...
In my case, I would have figured out the solution to my T much faster than the 4 YEARS it took if I hadn't seen a worthless ENT.
From my experience on this board Tinnitus is more likely to go away if: -You're young (check) -It wasn't caused by hearing damage (check) -It's...
Yes, they're completely useless. Mine did audio tests and told me "you have tinnitus, there's no cure but we can train you to pretend it's not a...
If you've had days of silence that is a VERY good sign, T that goes away temporarily is more likely to go away for good.
Nope. After 4 years of trying I figured out what was causing my T and fixed it. T is gone. No "moving on and trying to ignore it". And let me tell...
I think type-A personalities are affected a lot less than type-B. B's like me are out to experience their lives and relax, and T interferes with...
Sleeping in silence CURED my tinnitus. Try it for a few months.
My T kept going away temporarily. After 4 years it finally left for good. OP's temporary relief is a good sign!
Yes, I was cured after 4 years. See https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/is-my-tinnitus-unusual-please-help-identify-it.1604/ for a description of...
I remember at one point in my T stint I experienced habituation. I stopped noticing the sound not because it wasn't there, but because the part of...
Stop whining that you were hit in the mouth with a brick. Pain is a creation of the mind.
Don't worry Pamela, everyone acclimates in time, T is 10% noise 90% reaction! Gosh, I couldn't even type that without groaning. So sorry you've...
Vivid nightmares every time? I'm jealous. Love all intense dreams, even scary ones.
OP, the fact that your T went away initially, and that it is gone at some time of day (morning) makes it VERY likely to be recoverable. Just hang...
Spending my nights in utter silence instead of white noise like fan/AC CURED my tinnitus. So for me obviously silence was better.
Wonderful!! Nice to see a recovery story. Hopefully when you have hard times in the future, you will remember when silence was taken away from...
I'm not sure what you're asking. At one point in my T adventure I had *significant* hearing loss, such that I noticed it immediately, and while I...
No permanent hearing loss, although I did get temporary hearing loss in my left ear (lasted 3 days)
Agree completely with the OP. Tinnitus is an insane, pointless torture with no upside. I had it for 4 years and let me tell you, the only positive...
Great way to put it and I agree 100%. I had T for 4 years including 18 months where it was horrible and nonstop and ruined my life. I never even...
Are you hearing this constantly or does it go away for hours or more? When you do hear it how often (every second, 2 seconds?) Is the tempo steady...
I'm not sure what the cause was - it started suddenly and I have no hearing damage or loss. But it was aggravated by noise while sleeping, even...
I had T for 4 years and it is gone. Not habituated, gone. Your chances are better if: -You're young -The T was not caused by noise damage
Always a pleasure to see someone get out of this club! Well done OP!!
Great. I would advise against the use of fans as well at night. Six months from now, could you return to this topic and give an update on your...
I really doubt I'm imagining these particles, they just behave so consistently and reasonably physics-wise! But interesting stuff.
Haha no, the only drugs I take are melatonin and alcohol
That could very well be! But I don't think they were there for that long if so. I've noticed, in the past, "clear" floaters now and then, they...
I just started getting floaters like 2 months ago. Oddly it happened after I read up on it here and thought "huh I wonder what that would be...
The chances your T go away are better if: -You didn't get it from hearing damage -You are young -The T is intermittent/unstable rather than...
Yes, it goes away for a lot of people. I had it for 4 years and it is completely gone now. Also I have seen people do informal polls (talk to...
If it wasn't noise induced chances are good that it will go away. Add to that your youth and therefore resilience and your chances are very good!...
Yes, it happened to me. Read my post in success stories. I'm so glad to see another one vanish!
No. It's gone along with my T
I wish I could get this at least a few times (not nightly!) it sounds intense.
I got that too. A "buzzing" and a reaction to sound. Once it even beeped in time with my turn signal!
Did your T start suddenly? Did you have no T related problems before the "alarm went off" all at once? Could you describe your T? Not all T is...
Yep. I had "morse code" T for years. I got better. I don't hear it any more.
Sounds preferable to constant ringing. And you know for sure it's all in your head this way - your ear is not going to be sending you music!
Wow what an amazing and wonderful story. Just goes to show that doctors who choose to actually give a damn are worth their weight in platinum....
18g effing melatonin did it almost every time. If that doesn't work SWALLOW THE BOTTLE Melatonin is non toxic!
Yes Thongjy, that is what it seems to me by reading these boards. And it makes sense. If you don't have hearing loss then there is no lasting...
From browsing this board for a while it seems like: -You are more likely to shake off T if it is for a reason other than noise damage -You are...
I'm glad you're doing great! How is your T volume compared to April? You said it had lowered significantly then.
I posted in success stories, truesilence.
Believe me I do XD but I will never forget the hell of T and still consider myself one of the community.
