T has reduced to the point of being unnoticeable except when I am in bed. No longer elicits anxious reactions. Can sleep soundly in silence.

good luck getting better with that attitude my friend

Based on threefirefours chart, I was at an 8 for at least 2 months during the onset. It has reduced to 1-2 now, I also believe that T is extremely subjective and it’s hard to impossible to accurately measure where your at because to me, where I am at depends on how much I pay attention to it...

Hey John, For me it, as cliched as it sounds, I just tried occupying my time with other things, rather than just sit around worrying. I was declining to do really anything that involved me leaving my house. Since that was where I was mentally, I figured that I needed to find a way to occupy my...

I did not have an audiogram, but I definitely have hearing loss, I am 22 and have been playing in a band since I was 15. I do still hear tinnitus but it is perceived as part of who I am. Silence is a buzzing sound and that’s alright. That being said, it’s quieter, and I believe habituation...

FULL DISCLOSURE: I still hear tinnitus. But I need to be honest, tinnitus eventually becomes nothing. I know the exact date I got tinnitus, November 20, 2017. It was noise exposure, I play and continue to play in a band. I took a few months off because tinnitus scared me a lot, I was afraid to...

I’m doing much better. Life has been normal like it was before T for about 1 month now. Before then I had good days and bad,mostly good now

I have had tinnitus for the last 5 months or so. I have good and bad days. Usually it seems to be weeks of good days followed by weeks of bad days. To me, tinnitus, yes, of course is an annoyance, other than that, it does nothing to me. I worry about it before sleep, but can usually fall and...

i always hear bad things about ear and headphones on this website. since i got T about 5 months ago I have continued using earbuds with no noticeable increase in T volume. I keep it at a reasonable volume, before T i would play at full.

its really great to hear about a musician continuing to play with their band. i went to my first show since i noticed my T yesterday (with musicians earplugs) and everything was great and I had a good and comfortable time. I can't wait to start playing with my band again. Do you have any links...

Since yesterday I have had 3 very short spikes, less than 10 seconds generally, but it literally feels like there is something in my ear, or my ear feels shallow, during these spikes. My regular tinnitus also seems to get quieter after them. Does anyone know what this is? My regular tinnitus I...

Apologize for this post. Having a bad day. I just don't get understand how tinnitus noise is "harmless" what is harmless about stress and anxiety and difficulty sleeping? I would consider all of that harmful. I'm almost 3 months into this and I still think about it almost all day and certainly...

notched white noise at night, other than that nothing

I have a dentist appointment for a toothache I've been having on my left side, which is the side with most of my tinnitus, should I be worried? I really need to get this done because I can barely eat with my left side of my mouth and it sucks.

Today is my 6th day since the incident which has caused my tinnitus. I found myself staring at walls, drifting off into getting absorbed by the sound of the T, which would be louder/quieter dependent on how stressed I was. Yesterday I spent most of the day relaxing and noticed very little T...

i should probably quit the band then right :(

i am just so sad. i have been crying off and on all day. i know that it is still early (4 days) but it has never been this long and i fear the worst. i already cant do the things i previously enjoyed, play video games, listen to music, watch videos. i just focus on the sound and constantly...

they mentioned corticosteroids at the doctors yesterday. they said if i still had ringing by 2 weeks to come back and they would give me them. i did call the doctor again and ask to speak to the hearing specialist but there was no answer. hoping that they call back

(do not read if you're looking for hopefulness) thank you all for you replies. it has been 4 days now and i wish i had good news. i am unfortunately extremely anxious and stressed as i feel i may have lost one of my only hobbies in this world, which was playing music with my friends. i went to...

On Friday, November 17, 2017, I practiced with my band in a small room. It was very loud and at one point my drums came out of place so I kneeled by the large guitar speaker my friend was still playing and fixed them. It was not uncommon for me to have ringing in the ears after practice but I...
