It's a similar pitch but different volume. Different to my usual tinnitus tones. Right now it's quite soft, but it seems to change constantly, I never know what the next hour will bring!

@Benjaminbb, I relate to what you have said. In the last few weeks I have started to get those beeps you mentioned. I have had tinnitus for many years but only recently got the sound distortions. My beeps have ranged from very quiet to quite loud, the loud ones are sort of like the sound a...

Hi @ErikaS, in the past when I have had spikes to my tinnitus, as soon as it started fluctuating, it improved day by day. So I used to celebrate when it did not get stuck on a specific noise and fluctuated. However, the past ten weeks has been the worst spike I have ever had, and when it started...

I really need some help. A few years ago a kid that I was teaching screamed really loud in my ear and I got a tinnitus spike from it, the spike did not last too long, I now have had the same thing unfortunately happen again 5 weeks ago, and the spike is still going. It's unbearable, high...

@Sound Wave how are you going with doxepin now? I have been told its quite effective for sleep ( I am chronic insomniac) however if it causes increase in tinnitus I am hesitant to try it!! Has it improved for you?

So things got slightly better for a week and then I stupidly went to the movies. I am such an idiot! The movie I saw was not an action movie, not a loud blockbuster at all, but it seems to have lead to another spike. I am soo angry at myself, total stupidity and now I am really paying the...

@Allan1967 So sorry you experiencing the same. What are you doing to manage it ? I have been listening to a tinitus app on my iphone but the minute I am away from it I can hear the noise and then get so anxious.

@linearb I think may have to change jobs to get away from screaming children! This high pitch is shocking since the kid screamed non stop in my ear, Sorry you have it at home too! Not sure the solution !!

@Allan1967 I hear the noise all day and all night since it spiked last Wednesday has not stopped for a second, I am petrified I am going to have it at this high pitch forever,its unbearable screeching.

@Digital Doc Thanks for the tips. I hope the spike dies down a bit, its still really high pitch now ever since the kid screamed.

@HeavyMantra Sorry to hear that. Did the spike ever go down or still same level ?

@Michael Leigh Thanks for all the information. Much appreciated. I really hope the high pitch drops a bit. Just scary when stuck at this pitch with no changing. In the past with tinnitus I have that it changes volume, but this time completely stuck on highest pitch. Thanks for the website links.

@Michael Leigh Thanks for your message I am still not sure what caused my tinnitus to begin with,, teeth grinding may have but I am definitely not certain. As for loud music I hardly ever experienced it, I don't listen to music with headphones or attend noisey places etc. I have never been sure...

Thank you for all your replies. I really appreciate it. I will definitely have to prepare myself and not let the screaming near my ear happen again. Thanks for all the responses.

I have had tinnitus for several years, it's been relatively good past year until last week. I teach children with special needs and one of the students was screaming so loud in my ear. High pitch screaming. Straight after the tinnitus spiked and then went down to normal volume a few hours later...

Hopefully it will calm down soon. Hopefully temporary. Sorry you are going through all this.

I am guessing Flip means she rapidly tapered off benzo drugs (withdraw) but I could be wrong! Welcome to the forum Flip

@SallyT Hi Sally , I know exactly what you are going through, I am experiencing it myself right now since my tinnitus has gone from mild to high pitch screeching, its torture as you described it so well. Please know you are not alone, people here are very supportive. Listening to crickets...

Thank you. I really hope it goes down in volume soon! its been a long 10 days without any reprieve at all. Has not even had changes throughout the day, all day the exact same pitch for 10 days. Like its stuck on this ultra high pitch screech. I wish it would go back to the low pitched hissing...

I had a mild head cold but nothing serious. Dont have any ear pain or fullness etc. Its just soo high pitch at the moment. I can deal with it when its like a hissing sound or a low buzz but this high pitch screeching is driving me to insanity! I have been listening to neuromonics app that I...

@LukeYoung Hello fellow aussie! I used to be able to cover it up with a fan but the past 10 days it has been soo ultra high pitch, feel I am going crazy from it. No peace at all. I am hoping its just a spike and does not get stuck at this pitch forever. its horrific. Do you ever get spikes...

@geoffrey m Welcome to tinnitustalk! I am from Australia too and also take Endep. Endep has pretty much saved my life although right now I am going through a really bad 10 days currently with the tinnitus screeching soo high, can hear it way over the tv, radio, air con, fans etc. I am hoping...

@Michael B Thanks for your response Michael. Much appreciated. Im feeling slightly better (perhaps from hysteria!!) but not sure why as the pitch is still ultra high, just trying to be positive and hope this high pitch dies down a bit. It seems to be very much stuck on this high pitch now for...

@Michael B Thanks for your response. Is your tinnitus constantly very high pitched? for the past week my tinnitus has been ultra high pitch, and I am hoping that it will die down to how it used to be. I can deal with the low hum by covering it up with different sounds but this screeching high...

@Michael B Thank you. When the tinnitus is louder than tv, driving car etc i get very distressed and panic about how I will live with this high screeching if it does not go away. I can usually deal with the tinnitus but since last monday its been out of control, which was the day after flying...

Last Sunday I went on a plane and I had a bit of a head cold, I was worried that the plane might effect my tinnitus as a plane did make it spike a few months ago,. A few months ago as the plane was descending my ears hurt and then I had a tinnitus spike for the rest of that day and also the...

@Ed209 @cullenbohannon Thank you to both of you for your replies. I really appreciate it. The noise has decreased now thankfully but the descent really made it play up. I had to catch another plane to get back home and on this second trip I had a lot of ear pain and definitely hearing was...

Hi Elinor Thanks for your response. I am sorry you went through it too. Its not pleasant.

Hi I have not posted for a few months and the past few months my tinnitus has been quiet mild compared to when I first got it, but I have just been on a plane ( first time since getting tinnitus) and my left ear is screeching like mad. It started when the plane start to descend. The last 20...

@Sgguy46 Me to. I want to live in a hot spring too

Amitriptyline is good ( other names for it are endep and elavil) its an antidepressant with sedating effects. I take one 50mg at night and it helps with sleep. Some people who take it can have bad side effects but for me the only side effect is dry mouth, which is not that pleasant but for me...

I have had the most horrible week of screeching tinnitus and still have it currently (going completely crazy) however last night I decided to have a bath instead of a shower and it certainly reduced the tinnitus. It was only short lived but I was wondering what it is about the bath, blood flow...

Thank you both for your replies @Bobby B I am not a hundred percent sure how i got it but possibly TMJ issues ( overbite)

I posted here in mid july and was experiencing very high pitch tinnitus, however towards the end of July and early August the tinnitus was a lot lower, there was still noise but it was easy to mask and I could function okay. Then last Friday I went to a restaurant for a friends farewell and the...

Hi Julie I am sorry to hear what you are going through. I had the most horrible high pitch squealing noise all last night and all day today, only in this past half hour has it changed from squealing to a hissss sound like someone opening soft drink bottle! Hopefully the success stories...

Richard and Jeff thank you for your responses sorry i am hopeless with computers! how do I tag you or respond ? I dont know how to do it !!!! Thank you very much for your responses you have given me great hope I suffer from anxiety and depression already and now that I have this its made it...

Thank you so much. I am going to the dentist on tuesday to get the mouth guard. I am so desperate i will pay anything at this rate !!!! Its slightly less today but the past 24 hours have been horrible. Thanks for your trips

Thank you Mario. I just cant believe the difference like yesterday I could drown out the tinnitus with the tv, radio etc and even going outside and hearing birds and traffic noises the tinnitus was masked but today no matter what I do it is still so high pitch, like really high. Its been like...

Hello I am 32 year old female from sydney, Australia. A few weeks ago I had a cicada sound in my ear all of a sudden one night. I could not work out where it was coming from. At first I thought it was my fridge or internet modem. I went crazy searching for where the noise was coming from...
