I almost lost my job this week because my T makes me so aggressive. I could have been there with you having gin for breakfast. Also, I'm taking Chantix trying to stop smoking. Just know you are not alone.

I wish I had never used ear plugs in the shower. That's how ear drops used for an ear infection last year caked-up on my eardrum.

I found some drum noises low pitch that seem to help but it's through earbuds using my phone.

If I get solid sleep I don't hear it when I wake up. Today, I didn't have it but took a nap for 15 minutes and I work up with it. Thanks for all the replies.

Unfortunately, the tree frogs have started in the woods by our house. Their noise and the noise in my head are in competition.

I personally can't exercise when mine is loud. It makes mine worse.

The only way I got my ear to unclog last year was aggressive use of a Netti pot and ear irrigation. If I had it to do over, I would never have had ear irrigation. That is when this started.

I am interested in following this post to see how you are doing with the hearing aids and I hope someone else can shed more light on the subject. I still wonder about the correlation to sleep.

Sometimes we can tune out external noises but the sounds in our head are foremost making the tune out nearly impossible. Also, the pitch is overbearing. Some sounds you can walk away from, not the ones in your head. I like your baby example.

Last night I fell asleep on the couch. I woke up with it. I had to take Ambien to go to sleep after going to bed. I have it this morning. I probably hit all reasons to have it. I quit smoking in 2007. I started back in 2012. In 2007, I took Chantix, miracle drug, great sleep, and great dreams...

I've checked some other forums and people seem to wake up with the noise even after a short nap. Sometimes I'm afraid to go to sleep.

My ear infection started after dental work. Hence, the buzzing head. I don't have it today or at least I can't hear it. I wish every day could be like this.

I carry earplugs with me in my purse in case someone is using leafblower or other noise I can't tolerate. I like the ones posted in this post and will look into purchasing some. Thank you.

I have a few quiet days and then it comes back. I only wish it would go away forever.

You can do it! You already seem convinced and that is half the battle.
