    I hope and pray my boyfriend will find happiness without me. He deserves it. I love him so much. But I am not destined to stay around long

    I could have healed naturally without drugs and I ruined that

    @Mo8409 I so wish I could believe you...
    Juliane
    @gameover I understand. Did you never take any drugs at all?
    gameover
    Never ever any ADs in my life. Some antibiotics of course here and there, especially for Lyme twice in my life (like 10 and 18 years ago). Nothing else. I was hardly ever sick. Except Lyme, Meningitis in childhood and some usual child stuff, but not whole lot.

    I am sure that if I had just waited it out, not panicking and taking sleeping pills, I would not have been in this suicidal state today.

    My heart goes out to you. Please have strength. You can do it with time. You are so smart and so kind. Find a way to forgive yourself for any decisions you made in the past that did not work out. You always had your best interest at heart. I feel the same. One day at a time until things get better.

    And now all has been made worse. I don't want to trigger people feeling down already, but I have decided to find a way out if my T

    @Jupiterman thanks for asking. To be honest, my tinnitus was never this bad before. It is the volume after the worsening that makes me realize that tinnitus is not just tinnitus. It can become unbearable due to the volume alone. Sorry. Don't want to take away hope from people

    Hey Juliane I am sorry to see you are having a rough time. Please don't feel sorry you are not taking away hope from people. Y

    The above meaning don't feel guilty for venting. We are here with you.
    Juliane
    I just feel maybe this worsening is a sign from the universe that my time here is up. Nothing more for me to contribute. I am going mad from
    Juliane
    I am trying every day but this has no expiration day. It is pointless. It only dissapears when I am gone.
    Juliane
    Can't keep pretending this is a life. Let's be honest, it is not. I can't imagine living years with such a stupid noise in my head. I won't
    Juliane
    I hope that in the very near future it will be just as normal to donate some (or all) of your will to tinnitus research as to other causes
    Juliane
    Maybe I should just accept that my life will never really be joyful again but maybe it will be tolerable at best?

    @Wolfka Back to silence does not seem to work for me, I tried few times, though maybe not diligently enough. My T (and H) are just too severe it seems.
    gameover
    @Juliane. I do not know how but I started to sleep better with T. It is not like before (I never had sleep problems), but way better than in month 2-3. By month 4 it became much better. I tend to sleep too much again because it allow me to escape the torture. And then it messes up my sleep schedule, so not really helpful.

    @Juliane I'm really Active during day, so in the evening I'm tired. Also during college I learned how to sleep even if there was a party in next room. This is kinda similar, but party is in my ear. Only noise in room is air cleaner which makes silent white noise. But its not running every night
    Juliane
    Why are we going through this? I don't understand it. It seems pointless. Suffering does not make me a better person. Not at all.
    gameover
    Not at all. I was angry. My anger is mostly gone, I am too weak for it anymore.
    Juliane
    2/3 I did it to myself would it be easier? No. I just don't think there is anyway to accept what T has reduced my life to. I just can't.
    Juliane
    1/3 That old annoying "acceptance". I don't think I can ever accept that my tinnitus worsened due to other people's thoughtlessness. If

    Hi Julian - how are you doing?
    Juliane
    @4Grace Thanks for asking. Thought I was doing a bit better but long meetings at work spiked my tinnitus. You know the kind of people who just keep on talking and talking.. I don't know what to do, I can't not take part in meetings. How are you doing?
    4Grace
    Sorry to hear. That's what happened to me at work. T was predominantly in my right ear. It has spread to my left ear. The worsening has me in a panic. Trying to stay calm.
    Juliane
    Has anyone here tried CoQ10?
    RunningMan
    I've been taking 100mg CoQ10 Ubiquinol (enhanced bioavailability and absorption) every evening for a a few years but sometimes had gaps where I didn't take it. I missed some doses recently. I can't say that I've noticed any change in my tinnitus. I started taking it because I had read it was recommended when taking a statin, which I started years back when my tinnitus was more mild.
    kingsfan
    yep. doesn't do anything.

    For 20 years I was surprised to see that you have had this, it really gives me strength to see people who have had this for years. That's a very long time and you are a very strong person and I admire you <3

    My tinnitus started over 20 years ago also, and just slowly got worse over the years where white noise and fans no longer masked it, but it suddenly intensified to a new level in Feb 2022, which quickly become distressing causing anxiety, depression, and greater insomnia. Not much change in tinnitus since, but now TTTS and hyperacusis. I would take the previous 20 years of tinnitus over the last 18 months tinnitus.

    @RunningMan - wow. My heart goes out to you soooo much. Honest to God I am worsening daily. I am always staying in places where my T is at least partially masked and i think its making me worse.
    Juliane
    3/3 accepting. I am more a neurotic perfectionist. A wrong color or smell puts me off. This is the worst condition I could have gotten....

    I am the same. I've been trying to change and become more accepting, but there is just no way in hell I'm in accepting this. I actually look down on people who accept this.

    Same.

    Interesting. We all have some sort of OCD. At the moment once again I don't see what coming out of this storm looks like .I went out to eat yesterday no protection had desert. I have a new angry T today. T is Angry as hell!

    2/3 to fix it. BAD combo with tinnitus that cannot be fixed and requires patience and acceptance. I am highly impatient and not very

    @Juliane I will go over the impossible for ever until I find a solution. What scares me is even if this sound was not too loud, it might still drive me crazy…. and it's loud… and getting worse

    I feel very tired of pretending things are going to be okay. Sorry I am just being honest. I wish I could say my truth here. I can't … I see older people in peace walking around and making plans and get depressed. I feel like anyone that does not have T is blessed.
    Juliane
    If one is living a reasonable healthy and balanced life with no excesses, I strongly believe that only time can improve or even heal T
