Could tinnitus be a symptom of ME?

This week I've been extremely tired and I wonder if it's the body finally giving in to the exhaustion after months of anxiety and adrenaline
Horrible tinnitus after three glasses of wine yesterday... Must live even more restricted
And I don't think it's that simple at all, but I do think thriving in life is key to good health. Now how to start thriving?? Life is tough
And that increasing your quality of life by making life choices that are in harmony with your true being will heal you.. Controversial
Years ago I saw an "alternative" therapist who was convinced that all diseases are caused by low quality of life
Before the worsening of my T, I had been exhausted for years... I wonder if T is, also, some kind of "energy lack" issue..
Tough day today. Super tired although sleep seemed OK. I can never adjust to the randomness of this madness. I long for logical patterns.
Should I stop all activities in my life, go somewhere quiet and just focus on getting better for a year? Or would that be pointless?
Keep on keeping on.
My ENT was friendly but I chickened out and didn't do the hearing test. Have any of you experienced a spike after a normal hearing test?
Have an appointment with an ENT today. Any advice on what NOT to let them do?
So I received my new Peltor ear muffs... OMG these things are huge!!!!
How you getting on? Started new job today and thought I'd made a little bit of progress but my ear kicked off all day like an electrical current gone wrong. Feeling miserable and ten steps back!
Have to say no to all social gatherings, birthdays, parties etc because of fucking tinnitus. My life has become so worthless.
I have just ordered Peltor earmuffs. Do any of you have these too and do you wear them on the street? How is it?
At this stage, only love keeps me going. Everything else seems non-important.
I don't think I will ever be happy again. We are the patients no one cares about. I don't have any hope anymore
Is this real life or are we already living in a simulation? I cannot believe this is my life. Seems so unreal. I cannot continue for long.
Do you exercise and if yes, what kind do you find works well with T? I prefer swimming and walking.

Can this be compared to stages of T habituation? If yes, I think I am in stage 4: https://www.healthline.com/health/stages-of-grief#7-stages
Sometimes I wonder: do I have long Covid? Many people with long haul covid have tinnitus as one of their symptoms
Can't work. Can't sleep. Close to giving up.
Waking up and being able to experience silence however shortlived proves to me that T is very physical and not related to state of mind.
Woke up at 5.30 with no tinnitus. I lied still for about 10-15 mins. No sound of it! Fell asleep and woke at 8.30 and it was back :-(

I could live with my high frequency crickets, I would not even complain about those. It is the low humming drone sound that destroys me.
Hearing aids have substantially reduced the ringing in my ears. If your hearing loss is severe, they may help. You will know within the first 10 minutes of trying them.
Feeling so god damn sorry for myself. I am not a risk taker. On the contrary, I am super careful. This is pure black luck. Again. Cursed. -
