The only thing I can think about is it might have been that I was drinking alcohol ( a few beers) a few nights between the loud impact and when it started, including the night before, so myabe my ear was a bit altered and the alcohol didn't help anything.

alcohol. you should try curcumin and see how that helps.

I think that alcohol thins the blood , maybe thats why ? IN fact , alcohol and sitting in a jacuzzi for an hour are the only two things that have a positive effect on my T. I should just sit in the hot tub all day with a beer and i am good.

Mick - I am also scared of noise now ! But I really think for you it could be drinking alcohol that's causing it . Perhaps try over the counter sleeping meds and skip alcohol for one week ?otc Benadryl 50 mg will knock you out ..try n see how it goes ..

Alcohol works better than anything for this shit. Sucks, but it's true.

lol are you sure that you don't fall into a depression? alcohol is not a solution for problems... it makes it all worse. i hope you have fun at parties but you should not overdo..

Alcohol makes mine go way down I noticed.

Coffee in the morning seems to noticeably lower my tinnitus. Not sure why this is. Everything I have read says to avoid caffeine and alcohol. However, those seem to be the only two substances that seem to help change the volume for the better.

alcohol, like benzos, have an effect on gaba receptors

It is not common cause for alcohol to trigger tinnitus. Perhaps it may come from something else and your drinking alcohol is just a coincidence. It is a good idea to see an ENT to check out the ears and if there is too much ear wax then the ENT can deal with it. Micro-suction can cause problem...

I'm glad you shared! That's how we find ways to get better. And thanks for the other tip about the tincture. Good to know this helped, and I will report back if I give it a try! Sara

If that is the case, then there must be a solution for you, no? Have you said this to an ENT or neurologist?

Hi. This is very difficult to know because it is specific to each person. Some are affected by neck, TMJ, diet such as salt, sugar or alcohol, CBD, doing exercises etc. You need to have a log of what you are doing and try to see what affects the tones.

Me too. Not even Magnesium.

Yes, he's a loser who is worth $2.6 billion dollars, owns hundreds of companies, and was the President of the United States for four years. He stands a good chance of being nominated and winning the presidential race of 2024, but I'm sure that if he does this, those with TDS will still believe...

Alcohol makes it better during but worse after!

Cheese, Chocolate, anything salty even alcohol spikes my t.

I have no actual knowledge of this, but I've never heard of alcohol causing tinnitus. I do know that existing tinnitus can get louder with alcohol use, though. Could it have something to do with an infection, blood pressure or something with your jaw/teeth, perhaps? Btw, 16000 seems very very...

@mick1987 Has your spike went down at all yet? I am currently having one because I recently had a cold, it is pretty had to deal with.

Has alcohol made T worse for anyone

alcohol super quiets my tinnitus or super distracts me from it

Ooh so alcohol is supposed to get you a spike the next day?? Yeah I cut wayyy back on the weed. Prob only smoke a very small amount 3 times a week.

Alcohol and SSRIs can increase tinnitus as well.

...the condition. After learning there were still no available cures, I began examining a long list of factors that can exacerbate tinnitus: Alcohol Caffeine Additional acoustic trauma Stress Dehydration Musculoskeletal issues (cervical spine restrictions, TMJ, etc.) Inflammation Certain foods...

I know alcohol withdrawal can make your hearing more sensitive, tinnitus is actually a symptom of alcohol withdrawal, I don't want to try any medications and I'm no good at tapering, just like when I quit smoking last year I found out I have to just go cold turkey. Maybe in a few weeks when the...

Caffeine don't change my T at all. Drinking alcohol makes my T quiter.

...other day I was with friends, had a drink and I must admit my T almost completely went down, from 9/10 to 3/10 which was great, it's not the alcohol alone but the good company too in combination helps a lot, feeling comfortable. Unfortunately with alcohol usually the next days or after that...

Alcohol helps some of the times -- not always.

Too much alcohol makes you overweight and is very hard on your body, my uncle is an alcoholic and it's really sad to see what that's doing to him. I'm not saying never drink, just saying that too much can morph into a bad and unhealthy habit. I have never had alcohol influence my T...but then...

Weed yes, should be legal same as alcohol

Thanks @Sugarpuddle, I'll keep it up. Fortunately I don't smoke or drink, so I have that going for me. I've been on travel this past week, which might be counteracting any energy gains I've been having with the diet. I actually haven't been too burdened with the diet, so I don't mind going...

I think that if you are an alcoholic or someone who drinks everyday this may be an issue. But drinking casually a couple times a week shouldn't be an issue.

I don't think it is worth the risk, to take benzos and drink alcohol at the same time (during the evening, etc.). Time it so that both are many hours apart.

I don't drink alcohol. Makes my T worse.

Alcohol makes my tinnitus go away. Why is their a deficit of information about this?

Thanks linear b, ill have once in a while for better sleep :) and do my blog about beers

The number of high-profile musicians having alcohol/benzo issues suddenly makes a lot more sense. Yes, they party. But could it be also the little fact that alcohol attenuates tinnitus in many people, or at least makes it possible to sleep?...

I'm sure too much alcohol will effect T on its own, even without the loud music! Alcohol puts physical stress on your body as well if you drink too much, dehydration, raised body temperature, head ache, which leads to mental stress etc - all affects T. Like anything I guess - 'in moderation' is...

Has anyone found that their tinnitus gets louder after / during drinking alcohol? It may just be a coincidence but mine seems to spike

Alcohol, sport, excitement, stiffness in the neck and jaw, stress

Why does alcohol have to spike my T

That really all depends on my alcohol intake...

I can't sleep. I went hard with alcohol the other night - something I hadn't done in years. This is awful.

This makes me curious. When I drink alcohol my tinnitus always gets louder when I quit drinking. I don't understand why it wouldn't be the same for everyone. I have noticed people say to avoid alcohol. Now..while I am drinking...say after having an IPA it quietens but doesn't last long.

Right. Even if it was on Doctors, the advice is likely assuming two things: 1. You don't have T and H. 2. You actually have Swimmer's Ear.

I don’t think you should take it. But I would ask around more locally rather than order something bogus from China. If alcohol, antidepressants, Diazepam or anti-seizure meds have no effect on your tinnitus, then save your energy...

...no cure from tinnitus: it is very complex and possibly has several - or maybe even many underlying different mechanisms for each individual. Alcohol increases GABA so it can be linked with the hypothesis that at least for some people the tinnitus mechanism is related with the lack of GABA in...

I haven't drank alcohol since getting tinnitus and before I didn't drink much at all (I thought it wasn't worth the expense). I was wondering if a glass of wine helps or a small amount of alcohol. I do not believe in drinking a lot. However, I wanted to get people's experiences either short...

Has anyone who could not drink alcohol due to it causing spikes been able to again drink after habituation without having a relapse?

...react differently, though, just as they do to drugs, like benzos, that target your brain chemistry and the anxiety response. However, alcohol in general is a bad -- and ineffective-- sleep aid. While it can help you fall asleep, your sleep patterns become disturbed as your system...

Curry+alcohol *completely* silenced my somatic T last night. How? Back again today though...

Alcohol can sometimes spike me but it goes down.

Alcohol will excite your brain and make your tinnitus more noticeable, in addition to providing poor sleep (alcohol will make you fall asleep quickly, but the sleep you get is not restful and doesn't recharge you well - you may notice you wake up a few hours in rather than sleeping deep). I...

Alcohol definitely decreases my tinnitus. I am not a big drinker but when I do, my tinnitus almost disappears but not completely. But I focus on it less and I can enjoy myself. Since I have all kinds of TMJ issues and I’m highly stressed and tense, I wonder if for me, my tinnitus decreases...

Are you still taking Dayvigo? Is Dayvigo non-ototoxic?

alcohol hits same receptors and benzos..it was tongue in cheek my friend. . I prefer coffee myself..ahh another wonderful legal drug.

Lack of sleep, sugar and alcohol 10% No identified reason 90%

I wonder if anyone else has had this experience. I have pretty bad 24/7 tinnitus and using alcohol is the only thing that has consistently made my tinnitus quieter. I know many people experience the opposite, but even the next day I don't have any spike from drinking, I have never been a...

I'm only two weeks in with tinnitus and hadn't read anything about not consuming alcohol. For sure, two beers in things got a lot quieter - but I think it was just because ALL my senses are dulled with some alchohol. I do feel like it got a little worse the next day, though - but then I had...
