Hi U001
Lots of people are effectively cured of their tinnitus by becoming habituated to it to the point of not noticing it any more. I'm not sure there are many people that have actually been cured in the sense that they cannot hear it any more. However, I like to think when I'm not suffering from (with) it, I'm cured.
Cheers

I understand reappraisal, I'm happy for you that you are content with that. However, in my case, I'll fight this think until I die, that's just the way I am. If I just had tinnitus that would be alright but here's the collection of things that came with it:
1. Tinnitus (when things are quiet)
2. Hyperacusis on certain frequency (my children crying is within that range)
3. Depression (unexplained by any events)
4. Anxiety (unexplained by any events)
so for me it comes as a package, is one causing the other? possible. I'm investigating food intolerance atm, see where that leads me.
Overall, I'm happy for all those who are content with reduction and reappraisal (my ears are singing beautiful music and I'm alive) but that's not my cup of tea

I'm interested about going back to the state I was 2 years ago before that developed. It sure has to be the symptoms of something. Looks like mild chronic inflammation of the inner ears to me. But why? What's causing this? .. guess I should talk with an immunologist, who knows.
