    Tinnitus Spike After 12,000 Hz Noise Exposure Through Foam Earplugs

    The thing is, I have always slept with earplugs because I live in an area where the morning noise starts early and loudly. Despite my tinnitus being loud, I have never had trouble falling asleep while wearing earplugs. There are occasional nights when I do not wear them, but my tinnitus always...

    Can Wearing Earplugs Make the Brain More Aware of Tinnitus and Cause Spikes?

    My tinnitus started almost ten years ago due to noise trauma. Just ten minutes of loud live music triggered it, after years of abusing headphones and playing music at maximum volume most of the time. Since the first day, my tinnitus has been very unstable. I can go months without being bothered...

    Tinnitus Level Changes Overnight

    Hey John! It seems we share the same extra turn of the screw. Mine’s been like that for 10 years now. I’ve even woken up to total silence three times in the middle of the night, only to face absolute loudness in the morning. It used to be bearable for months at a time, then spike for a couple...

    Tinnitus Spike After 12,000 Hz Noise Exposure Through Foam Earplugs

    I have had noise-induced tinnitus for almost 10 years now, with many spikes over the years—some lasting for weeks at a time. My tinnitus is severe and can be heard anywhere, although my mind has somehow learned to ignore it for long periods. The last four months have been really smooth, and I've...

    That was a long year ago. I was experimenting with different sounds and frequencies from some apps I found at the time. My tinnitus changes a lot, and although it’s always audible, there are periods when it’s easier to ignore. This inconsistency makes it hard for me to stick to a routine...

    2024 US Presidential Election

    Neither Trump nor Kamala will stop the genocide, holocaust, and ethnic cleansing that the state of Israel has been carrying out in Palestine for decades, and now in Lebanon, with the support of the United States. Be careful. This time, your vote could make you complicit in the killing of...

    Do You Practice a Sport?

    I want to try deadlifts. I've never done them before. I lift weights as part of my boxing conditioning, but I've never lifted something really heavy, and I'm very interested in getting some of the health benefits they offer. I can easily cycle over 100 km on the road. I can even have a boxing...

    Waking Up an Hour After Falling Asleep with a Feeling of Being Electrocuted and Tinnitus 5x Louder

    Hello there! What you describe tends to happen to me randomly. I've experienced it several times. Waking up to a feeling of being electrocuted along a monster spike, which lasts until I sleep again. I think tinnitus is closely related to sleeping and rest. If I ignore my sleeping regime and...

    Case Report: Metformin Treated Long COVID Tinnitus

    I have a theory about COVID-19 related tinnitus. Three nights ago I had a really severe coughing episode which lasted 5 minutes. I was almost choking out of breath because a grain of salt went the wrong way down. After coughing I felt my head buzzing LOUDLY. It has remained that way since. I...

    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    I remember stretching my neck before swimming and noticing I could "hear" a high-pitched tone as I twisted my head around. This was exactly three weeks prior to my onset, eight years ago. I thought it had to be really tough to deal with the condition and just three weeks later... BAM! Maybe I...
