    Suicidal

    I went for a walk outside today in a very hilly area. This is the second day in a row that this has happened but my hissing sound disappears and gets replaced with a vacuum sound in my right ear specifically. I’d describe it as not the sound a vacuum makes when you’re right by it, but the high...

    Noise-Induced Tinnitus — 5 Gigs Since Spike — Not Getting Worse

    Hi Michael, How loud would a sound have to be to pass through ear plugs and cause a spike? This is my worst fear (assuming I’m able to be in the mood to ever socialize again)

    Suicidal

    Getting harder and harder to hang in there every day. What is the point of being here if I am miserable daily. What am I living for? Like there is no purpose. The purpose of life is to live, to make memories, make mistakes and learn and move on. Life won’t be perfect, but you’re not supposed to...

    Fred, I am so sorry your daughter and family is having to deal with this. It honestly makes me sick to my stomach how greedy the insurance/medical system is (not even sure who is at fault here) but whoever makes these types of regulations is absolutely evil. Disgusting.

    100% agree. And all the guys that I do know that have tinnitus have a very very mild case of it so it will be hard to get past that “overreacting with ear plugs” phase. I definitely agree on the feeling like a burden thing. I don’t want someone to miss out on certain life experiences or have...

    I don’t think anyone here actually wants to die. We just don’t want to live like this. If you can even call this living.

    I’m 26 years old. So not that much time :( At the moment my left ear is driving me crazy. It’s so hard to describe the sensation that I’m feeling. It’s like a fullness, but then almost feels like someone is blowing into my ear if that makes sense and it hears a weird whistling over external...

    Hi Jazzer, Thank you for your kind words. I am struggling greatly because all of the people in know in real life who have tinnitus seem like they’re dealing with a different version than me. They just have the classic eeeee in silent rooms. Mine his a weird hiss, combined with head pressure...
