I know it's hard, but try and not fight it. Do something you find relaxing and keep distracted.

Don't fight it. On my bad days distraction is the only thing that works. Do something nice for yourself. I like going for walks outside, taking hot baths or doing an art project

There's an old quote - "Pick a fight with tinnitus and tinnitus will win every time."
It's likely here to stay. Try and manage it instead.

@Ngo13 Definetly! 100% agreed. Even when that is difficult, the option is worse.

We must learn to accept it until it goes away or lessens. I know I hate this reality too. I curse myself for destroying my life and taking that medication. Someone had theirs disappear after 3 years that I read yesterday.

But we should forgive ourselves for not knowing what the future would be. I think everyday... If I didn't take that medicine I'd still be me.... In silence! Now I'm barely holding on each day... Hating my life. Sounds hurt my ears. What happened.

@Mo8409 I'm so sorry Mo. I feel the same way about the medication that I took that caused this. =( Accutane sucks. I'm thankful for people like you to talk to on this form who keep it real and encourage at the same time.

@Strawberryblonde I guess you're right! It passed after 4 days. Today was a good day. Thank you!

@Mo8409 my benzo induced Tinnitus has reduced a lot. Different drugs, but maybe yours will too. Be careful on the future with drugs, I don't even take Tylenol anymore.
