@GeorgeLG, thanks for your wisdom. I can relate to what you say so well. My experiences are pretty much the same as yours. Childhood trauma...
Don't give up hope. At the moment scientists are working round the clock to find a cure. Be glad you have no hyperacusis and be grateful that you...
Dear fellow tinnitus sufferers, I got tinnitus in 2012, due to loud noise exposure in a clothing store. But I already had a history of loud noise...
Hi Melanie, A lot of people are confronted with tinnitus sooner or later in their lives. You may ask yourself: Where did it come from? Maybe you...
Of course we are all desperate and want our silence back. Personally I'm willing to spend some money on Silencil. The guy who claims to have come...
If you have a better solution, please tell us. And thanx for your respectful reaction.
That's exactly what I mean. If you fight and resist you just create negative energy and that's very destructive. If you accept and embrace you...
Hey Tommy, I would just like to say: Accept it and embrace it. That's really all you need to do. It's your body's natural response to noise...
That's quite a philosophical look at it. You might be right, never looked at it that way. Thanx.
@Grace19, I also can't believe there is practically no information out there to warn people for the dangers of loud noise and the risk of damaging...

@Clinton Ross, I understand what you mean. My trust in the medical world took a devastating blow when I heard that Frequency Therapeutics recently...
Hi Asquared, sorry to hear you have to deal with this, looks like a combination of several causes. I advise you to not panic, stress is a huge...

Hi @Snowcat, We're all in the same boat here. I think a lot of how you deal with tinnitus has to do with mindset, with the way you perceive...
This is exactly what my tinnitus sounds like. An electric hiss, as if my brain is connected to electricity by a plug in a socket. It gives this...
Seems like your hearing has become hypersensitive, its sound tolerance level has gone down. The brain can react in strange ways, like producing...
Hey Boris, The initial onset of your tinnitus was caused by hitting your head, so it's not a result of noise induced hearing loss. But still, I...
Don't despair man. It's all so recognizable, most of the people here have gone through the exact same thing. So, even though it may seem hard to...
@Bb1878, if you mean with a "whooshing" sound a static electric sound, I have that too. And for whatever reason it's loudest early in the morning....
Good God, 39 years... You are a true survivor, hats off to you. I got mine in 2012, in a very loud clothing store where I wanted to get out (that...
I find it quite frustrating that scientists are obviously able to develop a COVID-19 vaccine in less than 12 months, but that the development of a...
Hi Tom, when you have tinnitus, just like the rest of us here, your hearing has already been damaged and therefore extra vulnerable. So that's why...
Vic, Don't despair. The first year is torture, but you'll be able to live with it eventually. You need to learn to disconnect the sounds that...
@twa https://www.flareaudio.com/products/calmer To take the sharp edge off the sound of daily activities, you should try Calmer (see link above)....
Life can be a real bitch, but never forget that you're not alone in this and that help is on its way...
Just try to stay positive. If you start thinking negatively you can put yourself into a downward spiral. It has been proven scientifically that...
You're not alone man, and help is on its way (Frequency Therapeutics). I developed tinnitus in 2012, turned my whole life upside down. But as I...
@Ghost Why don't you just buy a ear cleaning device yourself ? I have one, and once a year I put some olive oil in my ears, separately (the first...
Hang in there bro, you're not alone. All you have to do is wait for a cure, and they're working on it round the clock...
"(I just miss silence so much. I know people with tinnitus often say they didn't appreciate it enough, but I always did. I loved and cherished...
Reading the comments above, I must say I feel your pain and can relate to your suffering very well. My biggest frustration is that this...
I've read some stuff here and elsewhere talking about potential cures* on the horizon but I need someone with a bit more knowledge to set me...
Thanx Michael. We're all in the same boat. Glad to give some advice to someone who struggles with T. If it can only make a tiny little difference,...
Hi Doug, The essential trick to deal with T is acceptance. You HAVE to accept that the state of your hearing has changed forever. It's about loss....
"LESSON LEARNED: if some unexpected noise erupts out of nowhere, cover thy ear!" That is so true. Most people feel ashamed or embarrassed to show...
Thanx Billie48 for those two links, they are both very inspirational. So good to read about people who have found a way to deal with T, give it a...
My T sounds like a hiss too. Mine is always loudest when I wake up in the morning. After about an hour or so, and after having two cups of coffee,...
Absolutely. Governments have a moral obligation to spend serious money on R&D of a tinnitus cure. These military men return home from the...
"No clue how you all do this for years" Just keep breathing, and days turn into weeks, weeks turn into months and months turn into years. Get on...
After reading your story I can only conclude that we should stay away from ENT-doctors, audiologists or any other "specialists" who have no clue...
@Michael Leigh Thanx Michael, you're welcome.
Hey Zud, You'll get used to your current situation, but believe me, it takes time. For me it took 7 years to fully accept my condition. Now I...
To be honest I find your comment a bit negative, and we've been reading comments like these so many times in the past. Here are some facts: The...
@Flamingo1 Frequency's main focus is to cure hearing loss and to restore hearing. That also automatically means curing tinnitus and hyperacusis,...
@Rae57 Wearing headphones for many years might very well be the cause of your T. Hearing damage is a cumulative phenomenon, it slowly and...
Hi, Thanx for sharing your story. Custom made earplugs is a must in your case, I would say. Keep enjoying music, just make sure there won't be any...
Same age here, also 57, I've had tinnitus, hyperacusis and hearing loss since 2012, due to loud noise. It has undoubtedly been the worst thing...
I can only hope that FX-322 will finally turn off the incessantly ongoing hissing sound in my head, this feeling of fulness, as if my brain is...
So true Billie. By accepting T as a fundamental part of who you are, there is room and space created in your brain to enjoy life again....
Don't worry Hania, you will get used to it. Seriously. But it takes a lot time. For me it took two years to accept and find a way to live with my...
"Am I making the most of my short existence, regardless of my situation?" So true... There's a lot of wisdom in the above words. It's the art of...
Thanx Helen Louise for your inspirational chat, feels good to hear someone else talk about this condition and relate to that. I've had T and H...
Thanx Mark for your positive post, that's the way to deal with T ! I abused my hearing for decades by playing drums, and I played them loud......
@billie48, Hi, I just want to say that I really appreciate your posts and your efforts to help people who just got T. It's so important to have...
Thanx Ozgur for your wonderful post, it's most inspiring. When I'm feeling down, posts like these lift me up again.
Hi Kim, You're not alone, we're all in the same boat here. Acceptance is the key. Once you accept your T, the psychological pressure will...
I can understand you want to go out and see bands play live, but given the fact that you have T I would advise to forget about it and protect...
The problem is that research and development of a T cure is too diversified. In one country they are working on hair cell regeneration, in another...
