Hi @Yosemite ! Thank you for your message. I reduced the Mirtazapine at the beginning of January 2024 (I went from 22.5 mg to 15 mg). My...

I take 22.5 mg of mirtazapine every night to help me sleep. Up until 1 year ago I was taking the maximum dose (45 mg). Tinnitus can really...
No, food doesn't affect my tinnitus. As for hearing protection, I wear them every night to sleep because I'm a sensitive sleeper, and it doesn't...
Hi @4Grace, I'm really sorry for my late reply. I've been going less and less on TinnitusTalk recently because I'm doing better regarding tinnitus.
As we say in French, "hope is life". We have a damn incurable disease. So every potential treatment gives us hope, even if we're not sure it...
I am very hopeful that Shore's device will help us. It is currently the most promising treatment. From what I read on Tinnitus Talk it is probably...
It's exactly the same for me, I blamed myself to death for having taken this medication, I cried every night. But there is a time when you are...
Like you, I could not imagine that it would make my tinnitus worse, especially since I could have done without the damn drug. My advice is really...
Hi @yeezysqueezy, my intention is not to scare you at all, I hate making people panic, but honesty forces me to tell you that the worsening of the...
I am currently on Mirtazapine, an antidepressant that helps me sleep a little, but not completely. If your tinnitus is recent, it may very well...
Hi @Biaxca! To be very honest with you, there is unfortunately no medication on the market today that can even alleviate tinnitus. At the time...
I asked the same question previously, this is indeed very strange. There is not a single article on the Internet about the positive results of the...

I don't really know much about FDA, but maybe (and hopefully) it will not take as much time to authorise the marketing of Susan Shore's device, as...
There is one sentence that is particularly interesting in her email, she says "We are dedicated to bringing this novel therapy to the millions of...
Epidiolex seems to be available in France but it is prescribed for people with epileptic seizures associated with Dravet syndrome. According to...
Many questions remain unanswered for the moment. We only have a small glimpse of the device's potential. We will have to wait for the publication...
It also starts to worry me, but I'll try my best to stay positive: what if these cases of worsening aren't really due to the device? I have a...
Honestly I was kind of surprised to learn that tinnitus helps prevent cognitive decline! I mean, when you're so severely affected by tinnitus, to...
My gosh, all this good news is really coming at the right time! It is coming at a time when my tinnitus is terribly intense and makes me sleep...
As a very severe tinnitus sufferer (I have 4 sounds in my head including an ultra high-pitched sound, a dental drill sound and an electric sound),...
The results sound interesting. As a very severe tinnitus sufferer, I think I would give Neosensory a try, if only it was available in France. It...
I can't help but feel very pessimistic when I see that all potential treatments for tinnitus have failed. And even if something does work, if it...
I have also developed hyperacusis. I also feel, like you, that I have wasted my best years. I've been single for 6 months and don't know how to...
Hi @KoolKat, thanks for your message. When I had my first tinnitus in 2014, it was so mild that I was able to live completely normally. It was...
Thank you very much for your hopeful comment, it is to see this type of comment that I consult Tinnitus Talk several times a day. I am in dire...
That is precisely what I am scared of :( If Dr. Susan Shore's device doesn't help us, or if it doesn't help us enough to enjoy life a little bit...
Dr. Susan Shore's device is also the only hope I have to hold on to. I really hope we won't be disappointed this time. Tinnitus has literally...
Hi @Óscar PP, oh yeah, I've already read some articles recently about the Quviviq! It is a new sleep medication that had just started to be...
Of course not! I had to try each of them for about 2-3 weeks each time, then switch to another if it didn't work. It is important to mention, if...
- Gabapentin - Carbamazepine - Depakine - Lamotrigine - Pregabaline I tried all of them, to no avail.
It is more than depressing, it is TERRIFYING to realize that Dr. Susan Shore's device seems to be our last hope to alleviate our tinnitus....
Sorry for the late answer. No, it is not him. But I consulted Dr. G. Fain first. His strategy to try to reduce his patient's tinnitus consists of...
The reason why the media is not talking about it yet is because it is a brand new -potential- treatment that is still being studied. Also, in...
"A multilevel mixed-effects linear regression model accounting for confounding variables revealed that the mean tinnitus loudness and TFI scores...
There will NEVER be a "real medical treatment" for tinnitus. Even a French tinnitus specialist said that this would be a "miracle". When a doctor...
This is not yet a proper treatment. They are still doing studies to determine how best to use virtual reality to help tinnitus sufferers. My ENT...
Hi guys! I read another study entitled "Clinical efficacy of a patient-customized virtual reality auditory and visual system for the alleviation...
Yes it happened 2 days after the festival. But please don't talk me about that terrible event, it reminds me of very bad memories :( With regards...

Hi everyone! Well, I'm not going to tell you my whole tinnitus story because I could write a novel about it, but to sum it up: I've been...
Hi! Here's a study on the use of Virtual Reality for managing chronic tinnitus. According to this study, "A multilevel mixed-effects linear...
40-50 sessions omg! If I had to do so many sessions it would cost me €3,500 :eek:
Czesc Mentos, do you know, or does anyone know the difference between Neurofeedback and "Slow Cortical Potential Neurofeedback"? I don't get it....
It is not a device that you buy, the virtual reality sessions take place in the hospital. And the great thing is that the sessions will be fully...
As I said before, of course I will share my feelings about the VR sessions, if hopefully I am accepted to follow the protocol ;) I've been on...
Hi @Christiaan, to be honest, I'm not sure exactly why I need to cure my depression before I can do the VR sessions. My guess about depression is...
This is the website where I found the information on VR. In this article they tell about the hospital and the ENT I spoke to who treats tinnitus...
I read an article in French that explains exactly that. The article also adds that virtual reality sessions are as effective as CBT sessions....
One of the Parisian tinnitus specialists I consulted told me the same theory.
My understanding is that they have passed Phase I and are in Phase II, which must mean that their drug works. However, with the luck we have, it...
Indeed, I am not taking benzos but an antidepressant at small dose called Mirtazapine which, according to this forum, is one of the safest. My...
Hello everyone, I'm coming with news as some of you have kindly asked me to give some. I finally decided, after nearly 3 years of disabling...
