    Full Circuit: Finding Hope and Coping with Tinnitus — My Journey and Advice

    It is extremely dangerous to offer advice that is not based on published and peer-reviewed human randomized controlled studies. Anecdotal reports from some tinnitus sufferers or the opinion of a single clinician are not substitutes for the gold standard of the scientific method. Peer-reviewed...

    Full Circuit: Finding Hope and Coping with Tinnitus — My Journey and Advice

    I am writing this for those of you who are feeling as I did back in March of 2023. My tinnitus began from an acoustic trauma related to a single recreational firearm event. I had all the symptoms of acoustic trauma: threshold shift, muffled hearing, mild hyperacusis, and tinnitus. After a week...

    @MadeleineHope This. That’s my goal. It’s hard. Really hard. The anxiety is real and I expect to be managing it for a while. But the anxiety and depression? I can treat that with therapy and medication. The problem with T isn’t the T, so many people just find it an annoyance or even don’t...

    Depends on your previous experience with CBT. I already have been through it for anxiety related to sleep - so I think for me it’s about discipline and staying with it. It’s like studying for a final months in advance. I’m thinking I’ll need 2 sessions and the rest I can keep myself honest and...

    $250 a session. My experience with CBT is you get back what you put into it. I’ve realized quickly that there is no cure - my psychology is the cure and CBT for this is gold standard.

    @Ryan Scott $250 per session, he recommends 2 or so sessions. It’s a lot. But worth it for me. There is no cure. Cure is all mental.

    I’m just realizing there is no cure. We can only control our actions and response to T, so I just want to focus on that.
