Yes it is. http://www.tinnitus-study.info/cz-home. But I would rather recomend you habituation, there are options, cause this clinic trials are pretty invasive (in my opinion). It gets better, you'll see.

Not really a muffler, but not really an ear plug neither: musicians ear plugs work for me - like Alpine: http://kytary.cz/alpine-music-safe-pro/HN131839/ or http://www.alpinehearingprotection.com/earplugs/musicsafe-pro/.

Thank you all for your replies, from the deep of my heart. Your experience and insights mean a lot to me, @Dr. Nagler, @MattK, @billie48 and @Telis. I see now this island is maybe not so deserted as it seems to be at first. And maybe it's not even an island - maybe it's just a peninsula. And...

Rain. A gentle spring rain sounds nice.

Hello. I'm sorry, this is just a cry for help. I would like to ask you, fellow Tinnitusians (a nationality I just made up) about self-esteem and confidence. Because that's what I am losing every day. Since the onset of the MoAT (mother of all tinnituses) I'm losing it. I'm losing myself, I am...

Thank you all for your answers. After finally finding a doctor who tested my LDLs, I'm finding out that I really am hyperacustic (even when 3 doctors before told me I'm not, without even suggesting LDL). So I know what's going on now. I'll try to get help with this and see. :)

Thank you all for your answers.

I wonder if anyone could explain me this please? I would also like to ask @Dr. Nagler for his opinion: 1. If there are wearable sound generators used in TRT, what is the difference of their use between tinnitus and hyperacusis? Is it a constant volume for tinnitus and gradually rising volume...

I believe today. I believe I can make it. "If you're going through hell, keep going," said Winston Churchill. "The only way out is through," sang Alanis Morisette. I started to do relaxation breath techniques to help me with my shattered sleep. I wake up too early for 2 months now... but today I...

Thank you for encouraging words, Billie. I will hope and believe this reactive nightmare will pass. I am training my ears to the sounds as you said. It has cut me off socially. I guess I'll just have to carry on and believe my brain can fix this.

Thank you. I got the musician earplugs too, yet I don't use them much. I try not to avoid the sound, as in hyperacusis protocol, I guess I should train the brain "it's all right". It's just so hard. I've read a lot about tinnitus, I get the Jastreboff principle, but I just don't understand this...

I have the same symptoms as you do, @kevin89carolina. Did something change since the time of your post?

Thank you for the meditation advice. I used to meditate a lot too before T, but now I just can't make it. Guess I'll have to try, even it's far from the meditative state I used to know... I'll be trying.

Hello everybody, could you please help me? I have no idea how to try to habituate to my sound-reactive tinnitus. It goes "volume up" with any louder sound around me, even my own voice. Then it goes back down. Let's say a dog barks: WHOOF! My tinnitus goes: BEEEP! Let's say somebody (or I)...
