    My Experience with Loud, Screaming Tinnitus: Struggles, Discoveries, and a Path to Healing

    Hey all, It has been a long time since I posted here. I have been trying to avoid reading too much about it because I have developed my own perspective on at least my tinnitus. I am also writing this to keep myself accountable and to have something to return to whenever I need a reminder. I...

    Back to Silence

    Considering I have an anxiety disorder, I doubt something like that exists for me right now.

    Back to Silence

    I wanted to give this a real try, starting today, and I immediately failed applying rule one. Given my 24/7 tinnitus, how can I not think about it? I put a check mark, express out loud how I feel and keep watching TV. Then my tinnitus is still (well obviously) there. How do I drive my attention...

    I Invented a Sound That Knocked Out My Tinnitus

    So the Koss KSC75 with the clip does not hold? Doesn’t the headband of Koss KTX-PRO1 break when you sleep on the side? Thanks!

    I Invented a Sound That Knocked Out My Tinnitus

    Can anyone recommend a way to keep the Koss KSC75 on at night? So far I’ve cut a bandana out of a shirt to keep them on without their clip. Well it has not worked at all. I wake up and they are all over me. Thanks.

    I Invented a Sound That Knocked Out My Tinnitus

    I've decided to give this a real try. I've got myself a pair of Koss KSC75 and a small wave player with a clip. Question: Tinnitus Mix does not cover my tinnitus, most of the time I can still tell my Tinnitus from the Tinnitus Mix - is that normal?

    I Invented a Sound That Knocked Out My Tinnitus

    Well I am finally going to give this a try. What I can say is that after using it during the day for say 20 mins, my tinnitus changes completely so it does something. Will start sleeping with it.

    Do I Need a NUCCA? If So, Where Do I Find It?

    @Greg Sacramento I've uploaded what i have so far. MRI of my TMJ and xray of my spine. Had to zip the entire content of the CDs, meaning you have to unzip and launch the viewer https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1qnxfcOPKnGmHq942Bq550pkRCLnjtrSb?usp=sharing Hope to hear from you soon :)

    Do I Need a NUCCA? If So, Where Do I Find It?

    @Greg Sacramento I thank you a lot for elaborating in such detail. I'll go through an MRI in a few days, if you like (and sure I would not mind) I can send them to you!

    Hi and Next Steps :)

    Thanks for the answer. I went through any sort of test/therapy for neck/TMJ. I think I only miss an MRI now. I thought that kind of event (squicky sounds like on the plain + pain for a very short period of time) could say something...

    Hi and Next Steps :)

    @Contrast not all. My life is really quite. Had my first encounter with T 6 months ago, even then out of nothing. Not even a ear pain event like what I described before.

    Hi and Next Steps :)

    Hey guys, wanted to share something that happened to my good ear. Thursday 4pm very normal day. All of sudden in my "good" ear I start hearing loud sounds, sounds that I could only describe as air passing through my ear. Squick squick. RRRR. All of this was very painful (and by very I mean...

    How to Get Used to Rapidly Changing Tinnitus?

    @Nonna many thanks. It's been 6 months now. Sometimes I have good days indeed where the fluctuation is minimal.
