Wow! What a great bio. Glory be to God through our prosperity and trials. I have the story of Joseph with me these last couple months too. My tinnitus is no longer a hardship. It's fairly loud, but the Lord has surrounded me with joy and purpose. I'm going on 3 years with tinnitus. I would...

Exactly. Even a very low dose once at night and once around 3am. Keeping a routine with sleep and melatonin does wonders for my otherwise suffering nights with tinnitus.

I've had tinnitus for 2 years. This week I had a bad continuous spike, with no real cause. Only thing is I am constipated also this week. I'm not generally. As things got moving my spike had gone down gradually. I spike from many things for like, 6-8 hours. But this has been 4 days, I just...

My last post stated I was entering detox for alcohol. I'm 10 days sober and feeling amazing physically. I decreased my Clonazepam as soon as I got out, I've been steadily taking .5mgs for 5 days (started in January from 2mgs) and started taking Gabapentin 5 days ago, just 200mg at bedtime. My...

This is a very interesting thread. Clonazepam definitely took my tinnitus from a 10 to a 3. Other triggers bring it up, but I can identify them and spikes go down within 8 hours. I'm hooked on Clonazepam now after a year. I just today got prescribed Gabapentin for nerve pain. But I am 4 days...

I think I'm on the same ups and downs as you're dealing with. I can listen to the noise now and blank out, I care and would like it not to be, but I'm ok! I've never heard of Neuromonics. What's a reliable app source? I'll try something new that could help calm the storm even more I'm in a...

@Damien Cavanagh. Great post. My tinnitus is so much louder while lying down. Have you experimented with this more since February? As soon as I get out of bed, 10 minutes later, my tinnitus is down to an ok level. However, on the nights I miss a lot of sleep I'm tired enough it's louder than...

@Amv I agree with the first guy who responded and responded a couple of times. It seems as hind sight from my stand point that, if you are looking to find someone single... don't pin point someone else looking for a relationship. Friends are a good place to start because there's interest, but...

When I first got tinnitus, and didn't know what to do, I just kept seeking the right vitamin supplements. Even though I have found meditation to be the only true relief mentally, I did find that the apple cider vinegar treatment in my ears took away the stuffy feeling I had that first month. It...

@Jim Goose I've been thinking of you, I really believe you have a good chance of getting past the loud beginning. It takes time, but if you're ears aren't damaged from noise, your body just needs time to heal and habituate. Relaxing is key. Quality vitamins made from powder in capsules are far...

@nills how long did the Kratom spike last...? It's bad, I know I just posted last night when it hit. I passed the Chantix idea I had for now lol. Don't dare. Can you tell me what microdose Ibogaine means exactly and where to look for it. I looked online and there's too much conflicting information.

Wow, same story. Stressful job beyond the imagination, prescribed drugs to help, and a nicotine patch... Then bam! Caught tinnitus. Really loud at first, weeks and weeks. Came off everything, started vitamins. I'd been sworn off Clonazepam years prior, but got a hold of some from a friend...

Yes, Kratom started giving me a major spike. I'm speaking in the present. Normally take a modest amount, but I love the immediate effect it has when I'm just dragging, so I swallowed a teaspoon and my ears are getting scary. No anxiety involved, I'm quite calm, but if it continues I'm not going...

Thanks for the warning and I'll check out Ibogaine. Never heard of it, but then never heard of Kratom before February. I do wonder if people are triggered by different elements due to how their tinnitus was caused. It seems, just from reading posts for so long that people whose tinnitus was...

@Mantis11 I know this is an older post, but how are you doing now? We both got tinnitus about the same time last year. I so wish we tinnitus sufferers could talk to one another, not just type. At night I find that sleep headphones, not Bluetooth, with guided meditation on relaxation, teaches...
