    Yesterday my tinnitus was silent. For the whole day. Like plug my ears in a silent bathroom silent. It's back and kind of loud today. Ugh.

    I'm so sorry you're in that hell phase right now. I feel for you. I promise you it does get better. I am currently taking 50 mg of trazadone and some melatonin for sleep every night.

    Marijuana / Cannabis and Tinnitus

    I got stoned yesterday for the first time in 6 months and it was amazing. Nothing bad happened! My tinnitus didn't get louder, in fact it got SUPER quiet for like the next 2 hours. I had a great time with my friend at the park and we got ice cream and looked up at the clouds. This is the...

    I still have tinnitus, reactive tinnitus/hyperacusis, but I'm doing ok. I have good days and bad days. It's been about 6 months since I've gotten tinnitus. I see some slow improvements. Definitely not nearly as bad as it was back in December. That was absolutely hell.

    Marijuana / Cannabis and Tinnitus

    This was so wonderful and positive. Thank you so much! I think I'm going to try and get high with my friend this weekend and see how it goes. I want to reclaim things that I love. And yes, weed is one of those things lol.

    Marijuana / Cannabis and Tinnitus

    I think I might try an edible and microdose next weekend with a friend. I just don't want to let tinnitus stop me from these things that I love. Is there ANYONE who has a positive or neutral experience using marijuana with tinnitus??

    Sudden Onset Tinnitus — No Hearing Loss: From Ibuprofen/Stress/Ear Wax?

    I wonder if there is some merit to this. I did see an audiologist who did an extended audiogram and I only have mild hearing loss at 14 kHz and 16 kHz in my right ear. I definitely have hyperacusis but maybe that's related to my hyper awareness and hypervigilance? Maybe I do need a break here.

    Sudden Onset Tinnitus — No Hearing Loss: From Ibuprofen/Stress/Ear Wax?

    I'm so sorry that you're going through it. I totally feel you. Some days it'll be quiet/silent and some days it'll be loud and intrusive. Sometimes it fluctuates between those two extremes multiple times throughout the day.

    Sudden Onset Tinnitus — No Hearing Loss: From Ibuprofen/Stress/Ear Wax?

    I really hope so. My tinnitus has changed so much since getting it at the very beginning of December. I know it's still really new and I hope it fades and calms down as time goes on.

    Sudden Onset Tinnitus — No Hearing Loss: From Ibuprofen/Stress/Ear Wax?

    I'm not doing well at all. I thought I was recovering and things were getting better but today a new sound just came out of nowhere. It's almost like one sound got exchanged for another one and moved to a different ear. I can't habituate to this. Are setbacks a part of the recovery process? Or...
