Do insurance companies pay for suicide?

Hello guys! I have been quietly reading Tinnitus Talk for many months and just decided to sign up to share my story. My horror story started in June 2023 after attending rock concert (I never was a concert lover, just attended 3-4 in my life). At one point, I noticed that high frequency tones...

Besides Gaby Olthuis, does anyone know of anyone else who underwent euthanasia or doctor-assisted suicide because of tinnitus? Is there a list of forum members who have committed suicide? I’ve seen threads opened for some, but there are those who passed away without a thread.

Hello, I am French and I ask you to forgive my bad language. I am 25 and I research information on assisted suicide for people with tinnitus. In France the subject is taboo because we are a country quite backward. Otorhinolaryngologists do not even know the anti-epileptics or any...

Heya, When I first got tinnitus 4 months ago I was definitely set on suicide. Even had worked out when and how and where to do it (NYE 2013). The thought itself was awful but the relief from that same thought was also liberating because I didn't have to hold on for much longer. I believed that...

Where did you ask for assisted suicide?

Article advocating for use of lithium as a medication to reduce suicide occurrences in susceptible populations. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/14/opinion/sunday/should-we-all-take-a-bit-of-lithium.html?_r=0

Every night, siren sounds explode in my ears, making me think about my future suicide. One day, I’ll finally be free from this.

...of our miserable lives. They need to be exposed and I think we should put ourself out there so we can be seen! A great final collective mass suicide would do. I'm in. Better to do something for my illness than to just sit passively taking it up the ass by ignorant doctors and other that...

...tinnitus is insane. 10 different sounds in head and ears. I’m also having ear pain and extreme hyperacusis. I’m very scared. It seems all the suicide stories here got bad multitonal tinnitus from benzos like me. Trying to stay strong but worried I’ll just be a memorial post in a few months...

Hi, You shouldn't be afraid of tinnitus suicide stories. I will share a short story that took away a lot of my fear for tinnitus. Maybe it will help you too. I have a friend, who has a friend with tinnitus. Let's just call him Tim. I was occasionally getting updates about his state and to be...

...employ as they struggle with debilitating tinnitus. I cannot explain how it touches and hurts me to read of those sufferers who mention suicide. I wonder if any in this forum since it's inception have actually gone through with it. This would represent such a tragic waste of lives, all of...

This forum works as a suicide prevention space for me. I really think it does. Being able to vent prevents the most desperate action

...since March and the associated anxiety and depression and all the other issues I've had to suffer along the years I'm seriously considering suicide. I just want to be able to sleep in peace, it's come to the point now where even sleep is no ways an exit to the hurt. Horrific nightmares...

I didn't ask for it. I'm just looking into it in multiple European countries.

Tonight It's worse than yesterday, yesterday it was worse than week ago, week ago it was worse than month ago and so on... New sounds, new volume, increased reaction, decreased sound tolerance. Since yesterday I feel pain in both ears. And it's not hyperacusis pain. I can touch my left ear...

Ok the suicide part is me trying to make light of this because it's driving me mental. Ringing in right ear but then about every 2 to 3 minutes a 15 second burst of static accompanied with feeling dizzy. It's really really starting to get to me now. I had it a few months ago and it passed but...

This is a very high rate of mental illness, and should not be ignored.

...A study is the first to examine the relationship between parental mental illness like anxiety and depression in childhood and the risk of suicide and self-harm in adults who suffer from tinnitus, noise or ringing in the ears, and hyperacusis, extreme sensitivity to noise. Results show that...

You're still working. That's a huge plus.

Suicide. Tinnitus can be hell on earth.

He apparently didn't even need the medication, either. I've been in the same situation. My blood pressure is always elevated at the doctor's office. After a single reading on my first visit, I had a cardiologist prescribe me blood pressure medication. Of course, I decided to buy an at-home...

...If you're not sleeping, you're in a very dangerous place. Get sleep aids, start a tea and breathing routine, and walk until you can't. Nearly every suicide is severely sleep-deprived. I'm at my worst when sleep is gone. I've tried it all. Do whatever you can to sleep. That's absolutely vital.

...A Swedish survey – which is the basis for the article – found that women who suffer from severe tinnitus are at increased risk of attempting suicide (compared with men). The research follows an earlier large-scale study from 2016 that did a break-down of the Korean tinnitus patient population...

...It was very touching and brilliantly made. You couldn't spend an hour better. I've always been in favor of legalizing assisted suicide. It's ridiculous people have to travel to Switzerland to get the final way out. In Belgium it's legal too, but only for locals I think. If I was hit with...

Seriously, for those people with moderate to severe tinnitus and hearing loss, how many have committed suicide? Are there any post about people doing it on here? I don't see how someone can live a normal life with offcentered hearing and tinnitus. I see people do it I guess, I just don't see how...

I developed persistent, louder-than-everything tinnitus in October 2023. I was extremely distraught and often considered suicide. One year later, it hasn’t faded in volume at all, and I haven’t habituated. But I want to tell you that the fear and anxiety have dropped dramatically. I know it’s...

So lucky to live in Belgium, you can easily apply for euthanasia. I don't have to google for the best suicide method.

Hi , my name is Tiya I'm 20 years old. I listen to music over 10 hours a day with my headphones with the volume very loud and I've done this for years! Music is the only way that calms me and makes me forget about how much I hate my life. Now I'm experiencing vertigo and my ear felt clogged for...

I had a breakdown in the car ride home from my office yesterday. My girlfriend was driving and I told her outright that I had been researching assisted suicide and that I didn't think I would be around much longer. She didn't say anything.

I saw the interview. She had tinnitus, but from my understanding, what motivated her decision was the hyperacusis.

I never thought to myself that I would ever consider suicide over this.

Hi @gameover and @From9to<1, As far as I understand from the postings, the supplements were never mentioned, only the medications. Would you PLEASE also post the supplement cocktail? I suffer from exactly the same tinnitus as @From9to<1, and I am truly extremely close to suicide now.

...6th Nov. I'm currently studying the violin in a university abroad so I'm away from home; the first month was very hard, I had a flash of suicide one night. Then I realized it's not worth it giving up my life for the tinnitus, no matter it be temporary or permanent. Life is too short to...

I remember reading @Aaron91‘s story about how his father’s suicide profoundly impacted his life. His father’s decision essentially destroyed his life, going by his words. What’s even more alarming is that the severe PTSD he experienced from that traumatic event might have contributed to his...

If someone told you you are going to be fine beyond any doubt, they would be lying. Some of us have worsened over the years to a suicidal state (or even committed suicide). Others get better over time. Read some of the success stories.

...she leaves. Is it possible to cure tinnitus in 1 hypno session? What are some unknown cures for it that have worked, not for managing it? Im 21. She is soft spoken to the point of rather commiting suicide than seeing a hypnotist almost it seems which is frustrating. What should I do? Thanks

...afterwards. The update from that until now is that the buzzing sound becomes really loud and debilitating which makes me want to commit suicide. I'm scared of dying, though, and I own a small dog that is my world and I don't want to leave her - but the buzzing sound and volume is just...

Hi this is lakshmi here from India, I got ringing sound in my ears for 4 days, I'm seeing hell in my life... Thinking to commit suicide

I'm just prodding you. The thread is about suicide, and it's therefore implicit that the "other option" would be just that - suicide. I don't always agree with your advice, but I'm not antagonistic to your desire to help others as much as possible.

...with Tinnitus, I wanted to share this article written by a woman in Minnesota who wrote an amazing article about her sister's depression and suicide. These I think are powerful words. Although she did not suffer from Tinnitus as far as I know, I think the depression that she suffered from is...

I found a tinnitus suicide story that hasn't been mentioned here yet. Karl Peter Stevenson: Suicide Father Was Tortured by Tinnitus A demonic doctor pushed a blood pressure medication on Karl and didn't bother to warn him that the medication could possibly cause tinnitus. He was denied...

Having my family and friends at my hospital bed when I woke up made me realize how selfish I was, trying to take away someone that is so precious to them. It was at that moment that I knew I would have to grind out each day until my last to be there for them.

Can someone explain to me why the human brain wants to protect itself so much? When standing on the roof of a tall building, it is incredibly difficult to take that final leap. What's the psychological reason for this? @linearb?? You are expect in psych.

Who knows, maybe he wanted to overdose. Not being labeled as a suicide can have benefits.
