In an effort to get this thread back on track I guess I can let out a mini vent. As you can imagine, I’ve been super paranoid about my...
While I’m not suicidal anymore, I feel this vent is better suited for this thread as it pertains to the time when I was, and very much so as a...
No real changes since my last post. The cancer diagnosis and subsequent treatment did derail plans my family had to go on a cruise for the first...
I can only speak for my own experiences, but 100 mg of Sertraline (Zoloft if you’re in the US) basically saved my life from the catastrophic...
I have x.x
I sincerely hope my original posts on the previous page weren’t interpreted to suggest that severe and catastrophic tinnitus is a different beast...
I wasn’t quite sure where to post this update of sorts, even if it isn’t entirely a positive one, it isn’t to do with my tinnitus and this seemed...
I would say that accurately describes my current situation, yes. I’m sorry to hear you’re struggling though :(
I honestly don’t know, the GP is going to review it sometime in autumn. If I don’t develop any side effects and I still feel good (i.e. able to...
I am not a person of faith, no. Nonetheless I appreciate the sentiment, thank you. And yes, I know people can worsen from taking medication but it...
I really don’t know what to say other than that I deeply feel for you and hope you’re eventually able to come out the other end of this with your...
I want to preface this by saying that I do not intend to minimise or downplay others’ suffering. There are lots of people on here with cases far...
Not to hijack someone else’s success story, but I guess it is relevant given how inspiring I found @AnthonyMcDonald’s improvements. I was able to...
Reading this is genuinely inspiring and gives me hope. I got driven to the point of suicidal thoughts just by an increase in the tinnitus noise, I...
Ear ache seems better today, if not totally better. Has me leaning towards the recent-ness (is that even a word?) of my chemotherapy. Paracetamol...
I now have ear pain in my affected ear. It isn’t responsive to sound, it just aches. I’m really hoping it’s temporary and something that has to do...
I'm considering asking my GP about it next time I see them. Not decided yet though.
I’m not about to run off to the Success Stories section and proclaim victory as my sleep is still messed up to hell and back but Sertraline has...
I’m actually making some potentially very real plans to end it all post chemo. I admire the resolve of those who go for years with severe tinnitus...
Update of sorts. The Zoloft is helping to reduce my periods of intense borderline panic attack inducing anxiety and on Sunday I actually had a...
The antidepressant (Zoloft/Sertraline) is possibly already kicking in a bit, I think? Not exactly going to call it a miracle but it’s pushing back...
You said that mirtazapine helped you with the insomnia but I’m already on Zoloft (US name) and it hasn’t had a chance to kick in yet. Should I try...
I’ve asked and unfortunately not, because the cancer would likely come back and lead to me needing more chemo anyway, probably another full lot of...
I live in the UK, are these US only? And are they long or short term?
What sleeping medication were you referring to in your post to me in the Suicidal thread?
I'm probably seeing an audiologist that works with tinnitus patients after my cancer treatment is over. I use sound therapy, namely the sound of...
Even with the Zopiclone and now Diazepam I’m getting sleep in hourly increments. I’m going to die from sleep deprivation before the cancer could...
You guys are probably right. I need to give a few weeks for the antidepressant (Sertraline) to kick in, perhaps then I’ll be less distraught by...
Got guilted into backing out of this decision. I don’t think my parents know that I’ll inevitably end up killing myself or am slowly saving up for...
I’m very close to not going through with the chemotherapy. My quality of life is so poor and I’m only 32. My mother looks distraught and I don’t...
Probably not a good omen for one of my first posts to be in this thread but here we are. I had mild tinnitus for some 15 plus years but a recent...
Can Back to Silence work for high-pitched tinnitus that can be heard even while in the shower?
