I wish I knew why the pitch changes. I’m sitting here at work and it gets louder and then it goes back to the usual range. Then it stops completely for seconds and then comes back to usual range. What’s weird is there are days that he pitch stays the same all day long and then there are days...

Thank you Bishop, love your positive attitude . The reality is most us here on this forum have at some point or another fine through the first initial reactions to the onset of T. The support we have for each other here is like no other. This success stories on this forum helped me...

Michael, True, I didn’t leave my home and didn’t want to leave my Home at onset. I wasn’t eating only drinking water. I lost 20lbs in two months, I seriously was making plans for my husband so he would be prepared to live without me because I seriously felt like I was going to die from the...

No I don’t take anything to sleep, I haven’t taken a Xanax in 2 years . I only took it in the beginning

Bishop, I can so relate to what the Dr said to you . I too heard those same words, it’s Tinnitus there is no cure you are going to have to learn to live with it. There was no compassion whatsoever. Glad you too are able to share positive words with others.

Bishop, Thanks for your post, Reading it makes me think of all the similiar thoughts I was having. I completing agree your attitude has lots to do with it, you are much stronger than I. There is no way I could have done it without being on Meds and my faith. I was definitely at my lowest...

Scared111, Thank you , My sleep now is normal I can sleep 8 hrs no problem, I’m the beginning I had no sleep it seems that all I could do was think about the Tinnitus. It was a viscous circle, I honestly felt more relaxed at night and I hated mornings. Mornings at the time meant I would have...

It’s been 2 years and 3 months since that terrible day that I lost my hearing suddenly in my left ear. Although I can relate to so many of these stories being posted I have to say I am in a better place. I am not going to lie and say it was easy because it was far from that but I do want to...

That was very sweet Madi, prayers for you as well. It sounds like you were raised with good morals and you have compassion for others too. Hugs to you .

Awesome pics ! Live in the moment -that's my motto , looks like you are doing the same .

Natalie, Great post, you know all the things you mentioned every bit of detail (except pregnancy and the Hypercusis) are all the things I went through and I find that all those things are common with people that develop T. I went to my ob/gyn last week and was telling her about my T abd she...

7 months to the day, and doing great ! I went through hell for 2 months i had a nervous breakdown but I finally said enough, accept and move on . So here I am I am happy and living my life I'm not consumed in my own world of misery. I have a son graduating high school and I'm excited that I am...

Thank you for sharing, all the things you've went through sound so familiar. I'm glad you are in a better place.

Absolutely ! Stress a s focusing on sound make it worse

I love reading of your comments, I guess I'm not alone. It's amazing how are experiences are similiar but different too. This T is really challenging because there are so many variations of what caused it. This forum is great and I can't agree more with @Boy Helios about staying off the...
