Ten Year Tinnitus Anniversary！

Hi, I haven’t been on here in a long time.

Jesus I remember how flippant and pissed off I was with the cavalier attitude Danny Boy had towards obscure research chemicals and other meds for tinnitus. As someone who nearly died three years ago of substance abuse related to my tinnitus I should have been on here supporting people more...

SeekingAlpha I can't imagine a psyche ward would have been fun with full blown T spike. Too quiet in there..adds to the torture. Plus a lot of those meds will only up the T. People get very pissed off and angry when you even allude to suicide on a forum like this. It's like there's a massive...

The worst part about even thinking of suicide is botching it and ending up in an even worse place. I know someone who unintentionally tried to kill himself with too many sleepers and anti-anxiety meds. The tinnitus was grinding his sanity to dust. It made him irrational and irresponsible about...

Its a bit speedy, so take it early in the day. I feel that it increased my tinnitus like most dissociative type drugs i.e. ketamine, DXM ect. It has a very positive effect on your overall mood however, and leaves you with an anti-depressant afterglow for a number of days. It you wanna get...

See, I am currently in a good place with T. Took a couple of years...but if I had hearing and the sound kept getting higher I'd be quickly enough kicked off my whole "I'm habituated" high horse. My condition is no joke but motto is things can always get worse.... And I'm read some awful...

Hi, I got tinnitus through my own bad decisions. But many many musicians,DJ's and performers contracted this sickness through their bread and butter work....I hear many are pissed off. Like the angry herpes victim, the pissed off Hep C I.V user or the lowly down trodden aids ridden...

Pie in the sky wishful thinking.......

It grinds you down, it's relentless, pitiless, robs you of your sleep, your joy, your sense of hope . It leaves you a shattered shell cowering in a bottomless pit of despair. Suicide...it..it seems a lot easier than staring at that ceiling all night long with your ears screaming at you...

yes they did....still loud T but not bomb like level

I use a river sounding app every night...because my ear tremor made my tinnitus seem like nothing.... Its essential for sleep. Silence is hell

Oh I do man...no hyperbole. I had T so bad it was how I imagine somehow who had the unfortunate luck of sitting within an earshot of a road side bomb in Iraq or some other hellhole.....death almost seems like a relief in that situation...after 10 days of complete insomnia....haha

No not everyone. Imagine the person who goes deaf with high level T and no masking potential? The sorrow and the pity... A million scenarios where your own T seems a mere annoyance. I know both sides....and I thank god(if he exists) that my hearing is pitch perfect and my T is manageable ...

my tinnitus has become more of a hiss over the last few years. Originally it was a screaming dooooooough tone like a broken speaker...so relaxing on a quiet morning( lol. I love my hiss...thank you lord! The fear that you have cognitive damage or that you're going insane is what causes the...
