To be fair, the mice that they give tinnitus are probably begging for death at some point -.-

That's lovely. I'm glad you found solace in religion and hope your life continues to improve.

That's the plan then. We kidnap Bill Gates and give him Tinnitus.
The times I've heard it in my dreams, it manifests itself louder and more intense than an ambulance until it wakes me up. Tinnitus is so much fun.
I feel like I was getting to that point... But thought I would be ok with a little loud noise exposure now I'm back to square one. Mornings were...
I appreciate you writing this. Are you saying your T actually got better?
For a spike? I've had Tinnitus for about 5 months now.

Hey there, you are not alone. In the last 6 months, I developed panic & anxiety disorder overnight, and then developed...
I will look into this. I appreciate it!
I know this isn't an anxiety forum, but it's extremely reassuring to know CBT helped you, as I start my therapy next month. There is no escape...
