    SSRI-Induced Eustachian Tube Dysfunction (ETD): Advice and Experiences?

    Thanks for sharing all of this. You mentioned that this started in February, so it is still quite recent. Although some of our tinnitus symptoms seem to be different, I will say that the worst period for me was the first four to six months. It seemed to calm down a bit after that. It may not...

    SSRI-Induced Eustachian Tube Dysfunction (ETD): Advice and Experiences?

    @kgolive, yes, I am still experiencing everything I mentioned before. I think it is likely permanent in my case since it has been over a year, although it does seem a bit better compared to the initial noise and fullness.

    Does Anyone Experience Squeezing in the Ear Canal?

    I was wondering if anyone experiences a constant squeezing sensation in the ear canal? It feels different from the ear fullness I usually get. It's more like the ear canal itself is squeezing, along with the fullness. Could this be related to Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD)? I have TTTS...

    What Antidepressants Are Best Tolerated by Tinnitus Patients?

    Citalopram. My tinnitus has lessened over the year, but the ETD and pressure are hard to deal with. I have chronic pain, though, and I think I’ll have to take something for it. I’m considering that Gabapentin might be better for me than an antidepressant.
