Hello all, It's been awhile since I last visited. The good, or should I say great news is that I have sucessfully habituated to the constant...
I really have no idea what caused it. As reported by other users on here though, it's not uncommon for peoples T to spike for no apparent reason....
As others have said, you'd be harming yourself more than protecting yourself if you continue wearing plugs at all times. Don't be afraid of a...
The way, way back. Only recent movie I've seen that's worth mentioning. Steve Carrel and Toni Collette both earned a place on my "good actors...
Probably how quicky it can change my mood. I'm lucky enough to have it at a bareable noise most of the time, but when it spikes out of no where my...
If you were at an 8 hour event and used your earplugs most of the time it's probably just you trying to readjust. Earplugs are good to protect...
Headphones that sit on the ears I'd be okay with. Earplugs are a no-go. I don't like having my ears blocked and nearly nothing but the noise from...
Hi Bridget, One good thing about your case is that your ENT will have some sense of direction in looking to find a cause for your tinnitus as it...
I'm only familiar with a high-pitched ringing. It's constant and rarely changes pitch.
Totally understandable that you need to vent. We get that a lot here! I just read your post in the other thread about how your family didn't...
As other in the thread have said, it really isn't something that can be explained away in an easy and understandable fashion unless the person...
Straight forward logic dictates it's easier for people with mild T to adjust than people with louder. It depends a lot of the person too. Their...
Yep, I even had a similar experience with a squealing TV. I managed to deal with it though....
I used to have tinnitus. I still do, but I used to too.
@Carlo I've got no real answers either, though I guess we can only speculate. It's probably a good thing you didn't keep listening if what'd...
When I first developed tinnitus 3 years ago it bothered me for about a week and then I quickly forgot about it because it was so mild. In the...
@Tamalak I think that depends on the person really, but for most people it's our reaction to the noise that changes, not the noise itself. And by...
Mine in most noticeable in my left ear, though sometimes I feel it's coming from the left side of my head too. Perhaps yours is coming from both...
@Markku Thanks for that. I won't be trying it then unless I become really desperate, which I think is unlikely. :)
I feel I'm slowly transitioning from denial into acceptance of my T, but still, the last thing any of us want is the noise getting louder, so...
Went to the dentist the other day for a general check-up. I don't think it has effected mine, and if so, only temporarily. I did find the cleaning...
It'll definitely be a challenge, though I think if we're persistent we'll be able to manage. You know what bothers me most about the controlling...
I feel terrible about your situation Leah, I've seen a a few of your posts and it's clear you're really having a tough time dealing with it. I can...
Hi there Juri, or anyone else that's had experience with this drug for that matter. It's been awhile since anyone has posted in this thread I see,...
Thanks for the tips. I can vouch for the 'music playing below the sound of your T'. I've never liked anything too loud so I've always had music on...
Right back at you and to all other members of this community. (y) When I first found this site I thought it would be counter-productive to be...
Erik put it best, it's the same for me. I guess one day I just had enough of being frustrated with my T and stopped caring. For awhile there I was...
Welcome Carlo. :) Hate to make this about me, but I can't help but notice how different of an approach your ENT has to mine! You're very lucky...
You have my empathy Owl, I know how stressful it can be just when you think you already have enough to deal with but then T strikes down once...
Surprising he didn't tell you to try not concentrating on it! Haha :rolleyes: I wish you good luck with the Kava stuff. I also went to see a...
Surely there're cases out there were it has, but unfortunately that isn't a reality for most tinnitus sufferers. For the people where their's did...
Before settling into the idea that this may be a condition you have to manage, though don't forget it's a possibility, if you haven't already I...
You are truly a remarkable being if you able to tough-out a noise of that magnitude before you were able to find a solution. I feel like a bit of...
Another fan based avatar here. Mine's a young Stan Laurel as in Laurel and Hardy. Mum bought me a box set of some of their later movies...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinnitus#Objective_tinnitus It might be worth looking into some of the conditions mentioned there.
Whoops, I meant to start my own thread yet it ended up here. I may as well leave it though, huh?
Hello. First time poster here, I have had very mild tinnitus since I was 14 (18 now) and recently out of the blue the other month it seems to...
