@Lipshitz I couldn’t wear ear plugs it made my T worse made my whole head sizzle. So don’t say all work with ear plugs because you don’t know all people and how everyone’s Tinnitus is. I quit because I had to and couldn’t wear ear plugs so don’t say it’s a sorry excuse to quit because of T. You don’t know me and know how bad my T is. What makes you the expert about T?

I'm not a expert on T , but I can tell you one sitting and feeling sorry for yourself and making excuses and looking for sympathy from strangers isn't going to help your cause it will only make it worse focusing on it

I've seen comments on here about me attacking people , I didn't attack anybody people on here are so sensitive and look for any reason to feel like the world is out to get them cause you have a health condition , get used to it cause as we age there will be more health problems also it's part of life , stop crying and move on .

I would give yourself more time before even thinkin of benzo's as they can be a russian roulette, it took me a good year or 2 before i was really alot better. It sounds like long time but it CAN get better on it's own. i Still have bad days, but i can go a few months without one.

I can’t take this anymore

Help

The cause of your tinnitus doesn't matter. It should help regardless.

Don’t you have to wear headphones or something in your ears, I don’t think I can do that because it makes my T so much worse. Makes my head sizzle.

It's just one earpiece in one ear that plays brief, quiet sounds.

I use diazepam, a benzo like clonazepam. I never been a fan of pharmaceuticals, however, if i really can't get to sleep, i use it, and it has helped me at times

I have actually taken diazepam before it helped with sleep. I need something for anxiety and depression.

@SharonBell for that i personally i use kratom. But someone else said it gave him t spike, and it may not work for everyone. For me it helps for anxiety and depression, but you should do your own research, if it is something for you. Also, responsable use, it can be addictive, and unhealthy.. personally i use on occasion..

The noise in my head about drives me crazy and when I’m by myself I think about everything to much, I stay busy but I think about my Tinnitus all the time. How are you 4 Grace?

@SharonBell - if I copied and paste what you wrote it would summarize my condition. Plus some pain. I also have an extremely difficult situation at home. I am so so scared and exhausted.

@SharonBell - I want to begin taking a Med but terrified. Being home and not working is hard.

That's a good idea, actually!

I actually didnt order one for Christmas but my son and his girlfriend ordered me one it will be here this week. I will let you know how it does.

Ok Sammy0225 that would be nice coming from someone that had it.

Yeah I can’t sit down and watch tv in living room I have to go into my bedroom where I have more sound going and it is still so hard to watch tv.

About 7 or 8 months. I had it in 2021 and 2022 when I had Covid but it was just ringing in ears and it went away both times. It’s totally different now.

@SharonBell - I cannot sit of relax. Have to be talking or on the internet which I am tired of. I have lost the ability to do everything.

Didn’t sleep very much last night. Time change and my Tinnitus so loud. I stayed up later trying to do my breathing and relaxation. I’m so tired.

I hate this condition in much. =( I am going to get an extended hearing test and an OAE on the 7th of December.

For me, I have a strong possibility it is SNHL, as I do hear badly in my bad ear, and I also have chronic Tinnitus in that ear that varies in intensity depending on how it behaves. Ask me questions, unless you were looking for people with my stuff?
Thanks for the follow :)
