I had just a B12 vitamin sub-lingual from the local grocery store. I think it was Nature Made.

I forget since I stopped taking it, but it was 1,000mg i think and it was sublingual. I found it at the local grocery store.I only took it for a...

Hearing aids + TRT +CBT = semi cured mine. I can't really hear my tinnitus anymore while wearing hearing aids. If they are out, I can after a long...

I think a lot of people are low on B12. I was still in the normal range, but some people have issues when on the lower end of normal. If I was...

How far are you into yours? Don't lose hope. Eventually you should get used to it and it becomes nothing. I've got friends that had it screaming...

Oh my gosh! Yes, thankfully I'm still considered in the "normal" range. Just the low end of it. The diseases you mentioned above are really for...

Hi, I've had it for 8 months now, and started seeing improvements around 5 months. Although the improvements have been SOOOOO slow so hard to...

Thanks, I'm not trying to brag or anything. And to be clear, I do still have T. I posted this so other people get their vitamin deficiency's...

Have you seen a audiologist? They got these hearing aids now that are amazing! They completely mask the T when it acts up. And have built in TRT...

Try listening to this on a laptop while you sleep. Works for a lot of people. [MEDIA]

I agree on letting your body do its thing. I'm 8 months in and it has gone down a lot. Still annoying though, but I'll count my blessings. The key...

@Kritish Gooriah sent me a message in French. I translated it and posted below: Good morning, I don't have much more detail. It was while...

Oh no worries at all! I just wanted to understand what you were trying to say. Do you want to write it in French and I'll translate it for you and...

Might be true, but broken english so it is too hard to understand what she meant.

Yes, stay away from Celexa! Caused mine.

Because eyerolls make sounds. Good one, bud.

If it doesn't bother him, why is that considered "giving up?" You only need to "give up" if you are in battle with T, which he is not.

Thank you so much for coming back!! Really glad to hear this and you have provided hope to a lot of people on this forum. Much appreciated.

Super jealous of you noise induced folks. Drug induced checking in, and we get the T combined with what the ef else did this drug do to our...

How is that even remotely true? I'm 8 months in and mine has gone down a lot. Not gone yet, but def a LOT more bearable.

Sure feels good when someone says this! So thank you!

Update: Almost 8 months in. I'm still seeing small improvements in my tinnitus. I also went to an audiologist and turns out I had the complete...

Please talk to your doc about a diff anti-depressant. Celexa gave me T when I was only on 10mg for 7 weeks. It hasn't gone away, been a really...

Hi, no masking feature. I can still hear the high pitched "eeeeeee" but it is MUCH lower than without my hearing aids. I consider it a success at...

Have you guys looked into masking devices? Or do you have the kind that cannot be masked no matter what? It may help you code/program if you can...

I got mine from Celexa. I actually think what happens is that we took the SSRI meds, and the serotonin on our brains was being changed. This...

So you would advise a hearing loss patient with T, to not wear hearing aids? That's where the confusion started for me. On one hand, I'm told to...

I seriously wish I demanded the doctor give me steroids in first couple of weeks. Too late. But great news for your sister and thanks for sharing!

I wonder if these are the older hearing aids, because mine certainly don't have a speaker where your #4 is. To Michael's point, they are just...

Thanks, ya mine was caused by medication, an SSRI called Celexa destroyed whatever filter my brain had in place to deal with the hearing loss I...

Wow, thanks for this. One thing, though is that my hearing aids are not white noise generators. They are regular hearing aids. I have had hearing...

Dude, how is that even remotely a "health issue"? But congrats on beating T and thanks for sharing!

Great post, but not sure I agree. I wear in-ear canal hearing aids. Am I not supposed to wear my hearing aids when I have hearing loss and T?...

Absolutely. How is it not? In my opinion, if you ever get to the point you don't hear your own T, I'll take that! The point at, which my life...

I tend to think its more like my brain had a Tinnitus filter that was working well, until the medication came along and completely destroyed the...

Yeah, I was born with pretty significant hearing loss in both ears. I didn't have any Tinnitus until I took medication a year ago (age 35). It...

I really don't know. How do we know how each other's T sounds like? I'm def bothered by my T each day, but I've heard people describe their T as a...

TV like any sound will get my T really going. My T is quietest in a quiet room too. When I wear hearing aids though, it's a whole diff ball game....

Oh man, that happened to me in the beginning too. My T eventually found a baseline and seems to be settling down more. I sleep much better at...

Normal hearing range is 0 to 20 decibels in all frequencies. That's the volume you start to hear at. Mine doesn't start until you crank the volume...

Hi there. I wear hearing aids in both ears, and was wearing them as needed before I got T this past year. I was born with hearing loss. Sometimes,...

That's very interesting. I've never heard of hearing aids making T worse for anyone, at least not yet. Did the hearing aids whistle in your ear...

Hey there, thanks for sharing your story. Really a touching a story, and I hope you find happiness in the very near future. So, I have hearing...

Thanks for sharing. Glad you are making progress!

First part: True. But if he isn't hearing T in his dreams, my point was that's a huge win. But yes, you are right. Choice of words here was poor....

Exact quote too. Good job. You were one of the more pessimistic posts in a success forum. So ya, def sticking to my rec that you see a therapist...

Well on the bright side, it can't be that bad if you don't hear it during your dreams. I hear mine in my dreams all the time.

Thanks for sharing this. My biggest fear in life right now is just that I'll end up one of those people that is still writing about how tortured...

What a bunch of BS, are you people kidding me? C'mon. First of all, most people's like mine, fluctuates in volume. Second of all, I hear mine over...

Could not disagree with you more. Also, not helpful to your fellow sufferers. Nobody knows the true extent of what causes Tinnitus. And if your...

In your first year, did you feel at times it had gotten worse?

Duuuuude, thank you so much for coming back and updating us. This is HUGE for us newbies. I've heard this before, but not enough people come back...

Have you tried playing this youtube sound clip to see if it masks your T like it does mine? [MEDIA] If so, play that on a laptop or whatever...

Just an update for everyone. Hearing aids definitely seem to have helped tremendously. When I sleep at night, I don't hear it at all, even when I...

Right, glasses are viewed as fancy, because we ALL have friends/family that need them. People just don't know a lot of people with hearing aids so...

I've had hearing aids since I was 2 years old and played piano my whole life. Maybe I'm missing something, but who talks about hearing aids in a...

Wait, why? I'm half deaf literally and wear hearing aids and its basically solved my hearing loss problem. I have better hearing with my hearing...

Not you, someone else :)
