  • Seven years with non-stop tinnitus. The day it stops is the day I'm dead. I hope my tinnitus lasts 70 more years!

    Your inner ear issues are real, and it's true there's no cure for them. But based on your post history, they have led to a severe deterioration in mental health, and that can and will get better with time, if you accept treatment for it.

    @SimonRK, The only reason I want to die every single day is this inner ear nonsense. Before this, I've gone through unpleasant events and illnesses just like many others might, but I never woke up every day wanting to die like this. In fact, I was never even close to feeling this way. I'm still surprised at how one morning, I suddenly woke up and started experiencing this kind of torment daily.

    @SimonRK, I'm genuinely confused about how I reached this point, where every day feels like hell. What is the treatment you mentioned that I need to accept?
    Exposure to high frequency noise. Otalgia first time in over a year. I've been here before and know I can take back my life once again.
    An ENT told me that my ear canals are among the smallest she's ever seen. Do I win a prize?

    They're the most comfortable disposable plugs I've found so far @GoatSheep (with what all my doctors have told me are "the most labyrinthine ear canals" they've ever seen) but still not that comfortable. The only plugs I can comfortably wear for hours are my custom silicon moulds.

    I think you were asking @SimonRK, but I'll just add: I have had both MRI and CT scans, but never on my ears; only on my heart. As at one time, my tinnitus and anxiety were so bad, I wouldn't have needed to suicide to escape my existence, the constant adrenaline was going to take care of that for me.

    Never had a CT scan, no. But good to know.
