@Michael B i had slept quite well the last two nights. Don't know why tonight is so bad. I did feel rather more anxious when I came to bed. My...

@Michael B but knowing you have bad days after six years freaks me out. I could be physically sick, I'm so scared and tired of all this. It's...

@GregCA I do. I have Valium, and some type of sleeping tablet that I haven't dared take yet. I have to be up in three hours to function as a...

Thank you both @Kelvin @Michael Leigh I think I must take the meds because currently I go to bed and I don't want to wake up again. Yesterday...

Hi all. So after a bad week, with little quality sleep, I had a very good night's sleep last night. I had to sleep on my stomach as I had...

Oh dear, in a bad way again. So much for me keeping away. Candy has managed to frighten me off the citalopram and I feel desperately anxious. I...

@Samantha R would you mind PM me?

@glynis @Michael Leigh @Ed209 @Samantha R @Candy thank you everyone. My day yesterday went from one of sheer despair (as most days are in the...

I've read that the symptoms you are talking about can be anxiety related early on in the T journey. My T started with ear fullness which...

@Samantha R it sounds so simple ..... why can't they just make a drug like diazepam that isn't addictive?! I too researched the ADs and asked my...

I'm also wondering, if a small dose of diazepam makes the noise go quiet, does that suggest a huge anxiety my T?

@Candy did you take any meds early days?

@Candy thank you for your advice.

@Ed209 hi Ed. Did you ever take ADs? @Samantha R your situation sounds very similar to mine. I awoke with ear fullness and once that had...

Why do the mornings feel so bad? I have had 2.5 mg Valium to help this morning but it hasn't even touched the sides. I only ever take them...

@Ed209 @Michael Leigh thanks both xx. Michael, are the likes of sertraline etc classed as mild antidepressants?

@Kelvin @Samantha R @Michael Leigh @Ed209 @glynis thanks guys. It means so much that you take time to respond with such good suggestions. I know...

@Ed209 thanks as ever for responding. I know I am making it worse. I thought I was doing better. I was sleeping better somewhat. But this week my...

And there's the brutality of it. I can't eat, I can't drink wine, I can't stand noisy places now because of vibrations in my one ear. I even had...

@glynis thank you Glynis. There are so many horrid stories on here about worsening T after meds. I don't know where to turn @Michael Leigh...

I'm so sorry to keep posting like this, but I just can't stop crying. I'm finding this so hard to accept. I have so many people telling me I...

Paul, my problems started with an ear fullness in my right ear. Two days later I developed a low rumbling in my head on that side plus high...

@Ed209 hi Ed. Are your allergies the cause of ETD/T? Have you had allergy testing? I suspect ETD and nasal drip etc as the cause of my T. All...

Thanks for your responses. I'd still be interested to hear from those who have non-t days and if they find their usually spikey foods don't have...

Thanks guys. It means a lot to get your responses and that you take the time (and often for some of you!) to help me out. It means the world to...

I use a pillow speaker with nature sounds. Couldn't sleep at all in the first weeks but now I have gone back to work and using a sleep meditation...

Good to hear you are feeling better. I hope and pray I can improve my positivity about life and T soon. Xx

@Michael Leigh thanks Michael for your response. I know you decided early in not to deny yourself foods as it was only causing you more suffering,...

I couldn't agree more. My husband doesn't like me using the forum because he thinks it fuels my anxiety. But I'd be lost without the support of...

@Ed209 thanks for your thoughts. I really appreciate that you took the time to respond. It means so much that people care. I don't know what...

@Paul10 @Michael Leigh hi both. Thanks for your advice. I have an appt with the tinnitus nurse in a couple of weeks and she is going to give me a...

Hi folks in UK. Is there such a thing as a tinnitus specialist in the UK who is genuine and not out to make money? or even an NHS specialist?...

@fhs I sincerely hope so. I had an excellent day yesterday. Barely audible. Back up again today though so I do hope my baseline is as yesterday!...
