    A Bit of Positivity — My Tinnitus Is there but Feels Like It's Not There

    Has happened to me before, it's like it's there but farther away. That's the beggining of the habituation process.

    If Your Tinnitus Was Cured, What Would Be the First Thing You Do Afterwards?

    I'd do the same things I do daily, because I'm not letting T stop my life. It's really hard and tyring, but doable

    The Positivity Thread

    Just came back from a bar, drank a few beers that spiked my T to the roof. 2 hours later I'm still a bit drowsy but the T is back to baseline again, Now I'm heading to the ice cream shop to spike the T a bit more haha

    Increased Perception After an Episode of Fleeting Tinnitus

    Hi guys, hope you are all doing better since I haven't been around for a while. My tinnitus the last few months didn't bother me that much. Has anyone started paying attention to the tinnitus for a few days and it increases its volume out of the blue? I had an episode of fleeting tinnitus...

    I'm Freaking Out and Searching for Tinnitus Every Moment

    Update: I haven't heard the morse code for about a month. The solution was to take my mind out of it, got into my studies and aced an exam (yay), fortunately the sound got quieter when days passed and it's been a while since it dissapeared. Sorry I haven't been around to update sooner.

    Now Visual Snow. Really?

    Sorry to hear that. I got keratitis after a course of Prednisone, probably because of the immunosuppression. What did you have?

    Now Visual Snow. Really?

    Hi all, Just recovering from a month long tinnitus spike I got a keratitis and started obsessing over my eyes a lot, one day I came across a post about visual snow here and when I looked for it for a few days it appeared. I freaked out and now I can see it almost everywhere. Has anyone had a...

    I experience the same thing. Since many years before T started.

    Having a lot of beeping now, did it go away on its own? I'm freaking out a little. On the bright side, on Monday I'm going to an ENT specialised in Tinnitus that works with a full team of psicologists, psychiatrists and tmj specialist, hope to find something out about what's going on.

    I'm Freaking Out and Searching for Tinnitus Every Moment

    I feel I can't breathe properly, I'm searching for my T every moment and I can't stop doing it, I'm really freaking out and really frustrated. I developed a morse code beeping a week ago, it's low in volume but I'm freaking out so hard that I I'm probably imagining it rather than hearing it. I...

    New Sound: Morse Code

    Thank you Glynis. I don't know what might be causing it, this week I'll go back to the ENT to get a full check, he told me wait a few days and see what happens before doing the full hearing check. Is not that loud, but I'm constantly looking for it l, I'm very anxious. Hope you are doing great

    New Sound: Morse Code

    Went to a bar on Friday night but the music wasn't loud and I was plugged. I have many sounds too but this being a new one is the one that bothers me the most. Thanks for answering

    New Sound: Morse Code

    Hi all, haven't posted in a while. I have had tinnitus for a few years, a high pitched tone in both ears. Last week I was reading a book in bed and noticed a strange sound, like a morse code beep. That entire day my neck and head were hurting so I was trying to relax a little. Thought it was...

    Using Two Types of Earplugs

    Hi there, I've been using my Alpine Musicsafe for quite some time, but I lost one and I have my sister's graduation party in a few days (can't get a new pair in that short time). I was wondering if I could use a foam one (3M) in my tinnitus ear and my remaining Alpine musicsafe in the other ear...
