I've been on an SSRI for a few years since developing T and it helped me a lot. I didn't have any increase but instead probably diminished since it took my mind off it. Wellbutrin I tried for a week and that on the other hand made a noticeable increase in my T.

Hey Bertman, I wouldn't try searching for that hidden cure somewhere because there isn't one yet and we've all been down that road. Your best bet is to treat your mind, if you are depressed or anxious try to treat that and the tinnitus will be less intrusive believe me. Good luck sir, its a...

We are all in this together and are blessed to at least live in a time where a cure is possible. I've had some rough days this week and am slowly climbing out of the abyss. Remember what does not kill us makes us stronger, and you will be stronger! Thank you to this forum and all that...

Alec your description of your emotions is spot on right down to playing brass, loud headphones and gaming!

As hard as it may be to maintain your normal life activities, it's almost essential to keep doing so. If you have to bury yourself in your favorite hobby or just work for that matter then try it. One thing that helped me was getting put on a SSRI. The anxiety compounds everything. If you can...

Hmm I'll give it a shot. Think I'll order some today. Thanks for the write up!

I take Sertaline (Zoloft) since getting Tinnitus, it hasn't made it worse for me and helped me a lot with the anxiety. Try your best to distract yourself from the sound as hard as that may seem to do. Sounds to me you may have some form of inner ear infection but I'm no doctor. Everyone here...

If it's just an herb you'd think a person could order some for tea or something

Hey Fish, no I can't say I had that symptom right after the injection.

sup brah - bro fist to Fish with secret hand shake :) Yeah Louise I was in the trial as well last year. Had a one time injection but didn't really have any change in my T. Hopefully find out what trial group I was in this summer. BTW needles through the ear drum are not fun, I did get dizzy...

TACTT1 patient here! thanks for the update!

I've had a rough couple of days myself. T isn't any worse but just thinking about it and feeling a bit trapt. I'm on Zoloft which has helped me considerably with the anxiety/depression. I too went through all the stages of loss the first year I developed it. You are not alone and when you wake...

I like engines. My '89 Camaro is my main hobby. However I did buy a project jet ski last summer for fun. Staying focused on a project like these helps me to forget my tinnitus. Needless to say I also pulled out the big stereo I once had in the car, no need for it anymore :(

Well I would have been more upset had I not at least given it a shot. But yeah I hope to not read someday that I was Mr. Placeabo

Thanks Calin, Yeah I was told eventually when the study is finished I'll get a copy of the results. Hopefully then I'll be able to determine which group I fell into.
