    Suicidal

    Weed didn't cause my tinnitus... Concrete saws did.

    Surgery and Disc Replacement for Cervical Originated Tinnitus

    This is very sad as I do want to give you hope for a treatment, but with the 2 coinciding opinions I cannot say which to take. My only advice is to get a 3rd opinion.

    Agnostics “R” Us...

    Not believing in a higher power does absolutely nothing for your tinnitus, if anything it makes it worse... I can't wait for the day when I can be heaven with Jesus Christ and he takes my tinnitus away... And if all of religion isn't real? Then guess what? I won't know because I'm dead. So...

    It Could Be Worse... I'm Probably Able to Endure Until Better Tinnitus Treatments Are Available

    Every time I get a spike of fleeting tinnitus I think about how it can be this way forever... Then it goes back down to my screeching baseline tone and I don't feel as bad. I've been dealing with tinnitus for about 2 years and the only thing getting me through is remembering that some days are...

    Ear Popping Habit

    Yep and I'm not sure what actually causes this but I pop my ears literally hundreds of times a day now... Going to an ENT to have my ears cleaned; maybe the buildup of wax is making my symptoms worse.

    Tinnitus Possibly Caused by First Shot of Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine

    Good thing I didn't get the shot. Do you hear your tinnitus over everything or can it be easily masked?

    Hello from Deep South Texas

    Hey Chris, sorry to hear that youre suffering. It's very scary to hear that you got tinnitus from vaping because I actually picked up vaping as a coping mechanism for my severe tinnitus. (Recently, I stopped due to chest pains.) And I tend to drink every day now as a way to distract myself from...

    Texas Roadhouse CEO Kent Taylor Took His Life After Battling Severe Tinnitus Caused by COVID-19

    The sad part is he probably did kill himself based just off tinnitus. I had COVID-19 and I know for a fact the symptoms aren't that bad. The worst thing on this earth is severe tinnitus and if that's what he had, that should be his cause of death. I think it's crazy they are calling this a...

    Tinnitus After Playing Call of Duty — I've Got a Couple of Questions

    Yup, I got mine at 19 years old after using a concrete saw all day. I will probably hear this noise forever now sadly... I doubt it was from a little gaming.

    Yes i have had severe tinnitus for about 2 years after using saws without hearing protection. Sometimes i will have that same thing happen 2 or 3 times a week. Its very scary and makes me nervous that it can get that worse permanently... Infact i just got a spike as im typing this... Want to cry

    How Do You Live with Hyperacusis? Impact on Your Job/Studies? How Are Things Different Now?

    Hey there. 19 years old. I got mine from using a concrete saw for 6 hours or more at a time. My T showed up viscously a few weeks later. My H is the only thing keeping me from masking the blaring T. Whenever a noise gets loud enough to mask it my ears start hurting and the sound goes to my brain...
