I've had tinnitus for a decade or more. It's been a royal annoyance and while I'm mostly past the original panic (not entirely!), it still...
Since I'm currently experiencing worsened T and fairly high levels of anxiety, I'm thinking of trying magnesium. Specifically, this brand:...
I hear multiple sounds and tones (and seem to have acquired a new one recently), but not quite like what you're describing.
Melatonin was one thing I took to help me sleep at night but apparently I must be acclimating to it. I'm up to 12 mg a night (I take the Alteril...
Absolutely. If there's one constant with my T it's that there is no constant. It spikes, it relaxes, noises change...in my case all the novelty...
I'd be happy to participate, though plain email works much, much better given my schedule (I'm never sure when I can find ten consecutive minutes,...
Same here. The longer I have it, the more reactive it seems to get.
Hey, I love the stuff (always found that menthol- eucalyptus scent delightful) but yeah, I'd rather breathe it :)
That would be hell piled on top of hell. I'm fortunate to have a supportive group of people around me otherwise I might possibly be dead now...
They seem to have taken that site down... been experiencing some TTTS symptomology recently, hence the investigation. Would this have been the...
That's one of the noises I hear, though I've always thought of it more like the old static one used to get with television sets (dating myself...
Okay, this is way out there but on the thought that nothing's impossible, here goes: I live in the Pittsburgh, PA region. When this round of T...
I'm one of those for whom maskers didn't work - my T spiked through the roof when I tried them. Which does make me a bit unsure of what would...
The first months are the worst because everything in you wants to run from this. I cried and screamed for a long, long time and used to beat my...
Graphic artist for local trophy company. Fairly noisy environment; pretty sure it triggered my T. I like my job, though, in spite of the hum of...
No assumptions with this damn thing. Strange things happen with it; while I have not personally heard of this version going completely away I have...
Oddly, for me, showers don't help. If I'm having a good day, showers are fine and if a bad day, showers make it worse.
Howdy and welcome! There's a lot of warm, understanding folks here who all know what T is like. Glad you found us!
Ibuprofen does not have the same effect on all cases of tinnitus. It aggravates some but not others. In my case, it doesn't affect my tinnitus.
I'm several years in and I hear roughly a half dozen noises total; sometimes two at once, one ear doing its thing and the other sounding off with...
Melatonin (specifically brand name Alteril) is my usual go-to; two tablets and an hour or so later, I'm out :)
I also have no real hearing loss beyond that which is normal for my 56 years. I have also had tinnitus for several years now. It's quite possible...
I tell everyone I work with because it's primarily (I think!) because of my job that I have it, so I have to tell folks "hey, I'm sorry, but that...
I have constantly changing T (in terms of severity) and it's been my life for several years now - I am SERIOUSLY interested in this. Is your T...
Hi, y'all. Loooong time no jump in (though I do lurk from time to time). I'm on my second round of T, the first one occurred almost a dozen years...
I'll second LeQuack but I don't do bugs or heights very well :D Mice I don't care about, snakes are cool - let me see a flea on my cat or a spider...
I've been to several movies since the T onset, the last one being "Thor: The Dark World" (Chris Hemsworth. Dang, but that man is PURTY!! ;)) I...
Mine changes ALL the time. Both in the type of sound I hear (I can pick out six different sounds) and in volume/intensity/pitch. It's usually...
I'm not sure what caused mine in either instance. I work in a trophy shop (I'm the graphic artist there, I get to redraw logos when folks bring me...
Auditory hallucinations aren't unheard of - I don't thing it's experienced by the bulk of T sufferers but I HAVE read about many who have had it....
Thanks for the uplifting report... that's the hardest thing for anyone with T, to realize that eventually you will start to deal with it.
I take two Alterils most nights. In about an hour, I'm pleasantly drowsy and can usually drop off to sleep pretty easily (although sometimes I do...
RaZaH - pardon me but I have to tell you I almost sprayed my computer monitor with the coffee I'm drinking over this one :LOL: Rather a hearty...

This is actually my second bout with T. About a decade ago I had it for eight months... and yep, it went away. I hoped it was gone for good......
