I am taking this here in China. I notice I have been sleeping a bit better and my ability to cope with tinnitus has improved, although the actual noise is the same. I am really not sure if the ability to sleep better is due to the drug or meditation I have been doing. I'm taking 30mg three times...

Anyone familiar with a website where I can get in touch with online counsellors who use CBT?

I found this video very useful. He doesn't sell CBT as a catch-all. But gives some useful advice.

A s a teacher I feel your pain. I am looking at a career transition. Have you thought about how stressful your job is? How's your mood at work?

Recently I had a spike in Tinnitus. When I wake up my mouth feels a bit weird. I'm taking melatonin, that's it.

I'm sorry for your loss Jazzer. My sincere condolences. I hope you get some rest.

Thanks for this. Appreciated.

Hi Cher I came to China to help me cope with mine. it is a busier environment, but the lack of sleep eventually led mine to getting louder. Treat your anxiety and lack of sleep first. It too me 6 years to come up with various ways of creating a positive association of sleeping in a forest at...

Francisca, I think that getting onto your anxiety is a very realistic outcome. You have to understand that many stories on the internet do not tell all the facts. There is a lot of misinformation. I saw a hypontherapist once. He made me very relaxed. He asked me to answer two questions...

It's something they teach you in driving school.

Fran, there is a very interesting podcast on this site about how the sound of tinnitus is a predicted noise. Tinnitus and the Power of Prediction — Dr. Will Sedley I perform a sort of mental Kegel exercise and this is going to sound a bit weird, but here goes. This noise is not a real thing...

Firstly, respect everyone. The support I can see here is enormously helpful. I have had tinnitus for 7 years. It was depression + flu + lack of sleep after the death of my mother. It became much worse in the past month owing to lack of sleep. Relapse is like having it over again. But I am...

Sorry to hear about your struggles. You are venting and I hear you. It's a very difficult situation not many people understand.

Maybe stay away from too much computer time? Are you under other stress as well? If we look at the fence beside the road, we drive toward it. Keep looking at the road. Best of luc and stay positive.

Hi Lily. I wanted to reach out to you. I am sorry for your loss, firstly. Secondly as an NHS worker I cannot really begin to understand the stress you are under. After my mother died I was suicidal, and that's when I got tinnitus. I believe my tinnitus was connected with very poor sleep and a...

My sleep has been so bad I went to a hospital yesterday. They suggested giving acupuncture another try. I find it doesn't help much with the actual Tinnitus but it did help me sleep better. For some time I have been waking up feeling as though I have not slept at all. The acupuncture helps cope...

Thanks. It gives some temporary relief

Thanks for the tip about violet noise. I live in China and went to see an acupuncturist. They admitted the changes would be slight and take time. In all, they seemed to indicate acupuncture is of small but limited use. But if it helps, go for it.

Hi all I'm 43 from Australia. My mother passed away in 2014. I had depression at that time, not sleeping well, sleeping on a floor, bit overweight, the flu. I went to a doctor to clean out my ear which had become infected or just full of fluid because of my flu. I'm not sure if all or one of...

. I got a lot out of reading this book. Don't meditate just do nothing for a few hours a day, or at least do meaningful tasks and avoid pervasive thoughts.

I used to do meditation but it started to stress me out. The whole discipline of keeping your mind on one thing, is actually not very relaxing. They say " Oh but just let it come and go" but actually I really find new age type people annoying. It takes a good teacher to be able to frame these...

I suppose I am lucky in that I used to do a bit of meditation before. I have noticed my tinnitus dropped a level after meditation, really focusing on the sound and 'breathing into it'. I think the tinnitus level is the same but perhaps I notice it less? I noticed this article from Queen Drummer...

A Buddhist talk on using tinnitus as a way of meditative practice. http://www.dharmaseed.org/teacher/10/?search=practice+of+inner I found this really useful. The Mp3 is downloadable. He starts talking about this technique at 13.40 Hope this helps guys. R
