Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. Did I tell you this this is wonderful? Well it is. Wonderful that is. What is? That you are no longer desperate and THAT is what got your life back. Good luck for the future.

Hi Jessie, I hope you are getting some encouragement from the comments. I have some random thoughts because of the mix of responses you've gotten. Suicide. Most people will tell you to not think about it because it is a permanent solution to what is usually a temporary problem. I had mine...

Sorry for not updating before but a couple of bad patches meant I stayed away from the Forum. Rather than dig up the old post I'll just put a roundup here. T for 8 years, cause was definitely water in the ears whilst showering. Two futile attempts to seek medical help from 'ear...

Strange that there are some negative comments. I appreciate your input and am sure that your successful result will encourage others to attempt a similar solution.

Just a couple of comments. I don't think we will ever truly get an accurate suicide rate where the root cause is T. Also, I know many commenters report that their T has been worsened by increased stress levels. I am adamant that my stress levels are increased by a T spike and NOT the other...

It may be difficult but ought to be possible to determine a suicide rate where T is a factor. Simply, in the UK on the death certificate the actual cause of death is recorded, but so should any "underlying cause of death". This of course presupposes that the doctor concerned would know about...

I have only a few more days before completing the first month of the prescribed Trypizol 10mg (one daily, with food, 2 hours before bedtime). I remind interested readers that in terms of T volume I consider 2 to be a level that I can easily focus on other things and am unaware of it. For the...

I have to apologise again for a delayed reply, not intentional I can assure you. I was unable to find a guide as to what strength or quantity of Gingko would be helpful to T, but it was quoted as being helpful. I take one 500 mg tablet before bedtime. When my T is louder, then I supplement this...

Sorry for the delayed reply. I have been prescribed alprazolam 0.25mg. Quite weak, not addictive at that level and I just take it on the occasions that my T is at a level that I find difficult to tolerate. Usually I would just take one and that would overcome the spike. On occasion though I...

Hi Ashleigh. I can't be doing with the white noise either. The most successful 'masking sound' for me has been 3 hours of waves downloaded from you tube. Some sounds I cannot tolerate with loud T, but lately I too have been listening to birds of which I have found one recording I like (1 hour...

Hello Hannah. I'm not sure if you are conscious of it, but you describe that during the day you "notice it less". This is simply because you are focussing on other things. Most people will have a level of T which they do not 'hear' when focussed on other things. For me in the evening, a...

I think that you may be stronger than you think. Why? Because I have been reading a lot about the experiences of others on this forum and for all of us here T was an unexpected challenge. Some don't know the specific cause, everybody would have done things differently had they known the...

Well you have me worried Anti. But you are already not living "like this", as you have already taken steps to try to improve things. The single most important information you have offered is that your T has been completely absent in the morning. This suggests that Sailboardman has offered...

Hello Shantelle. I think it would be difficult for anybody on the forum to answer categorically whether the variation is a "bad sign". What we can tell you is that we have all suffered variations in volume resulting in 'bad days'. From that you should take heart that a 'bad day' is not likely...

Oddly enough LL97, the anxiety is the easiest thing I have learned to cope with, it only takes a pill. I can tell you that I have had my T for 8 years and it was not caused by age and has not got worse with age. What you may aim to learn is what may affect your T and therefore how you can...
