In the 2 years I experience tinnitus (no clear reason why it began), the sound has gone from a unilateral morse code that was only heard at night to a bilateral orchestra with a variety of sounds, also heard in above tv or a busy office-environment.. Doctors found nothing wrong (mri ok, hearing ok)
Every couple of months after onset, a new sound emerged, mostly right at the time I started coping with the previous noises. It plunged me back in anxiety and depression, every time.
A couple of weeks ago, another couple of noises (new pure tone and beeping tone) joined the group. I can't figure out why this keeps happening and the future of tinnitus that grows louder and louder frightens me to the point I'm putting my life on hold.
After 2 years, I'm still not coping at all and anxiety and depression builds.. If i knew for sure the sounds would stay the same from now on, I think I would cope better, but the anxiety of new sounds sets me back every time.
Does anyone have similar experiences with this or do you have ideas on how to cope with this situation?
