Hi all, thank you for positive words. I’m holding onto positive thoughts focusing on the sleep I do get and try to remove the negative thoughts over the hours I spend awake but it’s tough! X Not sure where I am on the next stages of accepting this is part of my life and moving away from the...

Hi all - I have to say this static fuzzy fizz is most annoying to me. I hear it over the usual noise that helped me distract from the high pitch tone I had in the early days. My brain doesn’t allow me to associate this with anything positive. I cannot explain how I deal with it and what’s...

Hi family and tinnitus friends - after years of being good and coping with my tinnitus pushed to the back of my mind and my life being all good - it’s back and more fuzzy than ever, what was a high pitch tone is now constant static noise! I’ve had some ups and downs and recently lots of...

Hey guys I’m still around a little older and a little wise but still have my T but I’m in control x

Hello my T family - so much time has passed since my last post - life is good for me my tinnitus is still with me but I'm totally used to it - it's part of me and I don't worry anymore about it - at all ! I want to tell everyone you can with time find a way to cope - my old pal will remember my...

On my way back after a dip

#Karen how lovely you posted to my thread - yes teenager daughters r certainly testing me if only I knew the baby years are the easiest lol !! I do keep checking in and the past year my T was really not a focus to me I was sleeping with no masking but recently I have taken a few steps back but...

Hi T-family I do keep checking in see how things r going for the guys I met in this forum when T became part of my life ! Well not that long ago I thought it was gone - I was sleeping all night and although its still there sometimes it was totally not causing me any issues - recently I've had...

@LadyDi my T sister - who would think 2 years on-we would be still on that same road - but so happy we are both on the road to happiness and a good life with T - its a long road though and I know I'm skipping along and still we are holding hands - with reflection I am stronger than I was 3 years...

Hi Gabrielle - It bothers me the most at night when it's quiet I guess I use masking to help - I did hear it all day everyday but I don't anymore only if I listen for it - I have a constant tone in my left ear so I lucky it's not toooo loud compared to others on here but it did consume my life...

Well team T - I feel I have been away for toooo long ! But I am in a good place so wanted to share a success story - do I still have T - yes it's there every night but I have learnt to cope adjust and carry on ! I still have a little help for anti d mirtzipine but I miss more than I take ! I...

Dylan a field spaniel

I'm glad you found help - but I must put out therey experience of acupuncture - it wasn't comfortable or relaxing but cold slightly painful but not over so and just over rated ! Didn't work for me and I went for a course of sessions - that said what has helped is self belief and positive...

Dry January is a long month ;)

I totally agree I see loads of Facebook post from people who can't sleep I their iPhones telling the world they can't sleep !!! No wonder !!! I have trained myself not to look at the time just accept it's not time to get up and try to relax back to sleep ..... However I don't get up although I...

Blue is deep sleep green light sleep an orange awake - again based on movement I remember being awake 3am and tossing n turning but I did go back to complete stillness and deep sleep then waking around 5am which is normal for me and I get up do the morning jobs then hit the gym at 6 before work...

I always get up between 5am -5.30 cos I hit the gym at 6am so the early start on the above graph is my normal routine ;)

Somehow actually seeing how I sleep albeit not 100% accurate helped me I do sleep I get deep sleep and even if only 3 or 4 hours I was positive I got that - now I sleep ok 6-7 hours I always wake up and I am not sure if I am awake for minutes or hours but I always fall back to sleep according...

@LadyDi on this road together as always xx. I have always quoted I don't sleep and I have spent hours clock watching ! Now the experts say get up if you r not asleep get up read, watch tv etc go to bed only when sleepy ! That works I believe for the most however oneday I thought I actually...

Checking out those Tibet healing sounds very relaxing indeed !

I use relax melodies every night I like Jupiter and wind in trees they mask my T and don't annoy me &. The sleep apps I'm talkin about on this thread r those that record your sleep movement like sleep time or sleep cycle I was suprised how much I did sleep and then I relaxed and slept more ! I...

OK for those who know my T history my biggest battle has always been sleep ! If I can sleep I can cope with T - so my struggle with sleep has always been my biggest battle Why can't you sleep when your so tired and sleep deprived you still cant drop off ! Its a hard one to explain to anyone...

Has anyone got experience with dosulepin my doc has just changed me from trazadone to this dosulepin as a sleep helper to take at night as I've gone through a rough patch and feel trazadone not helping me anymore - only been on this new one a week but so far it's been less than helpful - anyone...

I'm on day 3 of huge increasein static buzzzzz I hear it all the time - it over rides my normal single tone left ear and it's a constant static buzzzzzz I thought it was maybe cos I'm tired having a blip recently with sleep back on sleep meds at moment to get me some rest I'm not over worried...

Waterproof footwear @UserID and thank you for a lovely reply ;)

OMG - its like the longest weekend ever - my eldest 16 year old has gone on her way to her first 'music festival' In the UK Thursday was GCSE ( 16 yr old exams results) day - and she has worked really hard and got some excellent result - v v v v proud Mum - the moment she opened and read her...

I love reading positive quotes and I like the idea of having them in your handbag to read - my boss has quotes in a booklet about team motivation and he often reads them to remind himself about such methods etc he is an amazing boss! I recently saw this positive quote and I find it inspiring as...

Amelia - Im sending you all my love n hugs for a speedy recovery xx

Thank you @LadyDi I think its a thread that makes us remember we all have different lives and all manage most of the time to live them fully with T we are an interesting bunch of people with ringing ears ! xx

Hi Amelia I agree with Gary do what you need to get you through now I'm still on one of my anti depressants and also back on short term sleeping tablet - to get me through the current blip - next week hopefully back to previous self but I need a little help right now. Take the help you have a...

Defo must be York Steve !

Hi guys it's nice to have support when you have these blips - I have an app on my phone I use for masking as I find I need to change what I use ever now and again I really don't know why my sleep is now suffering again can't pin point a reason just know the nights very long at the moment :(...

Hi guys well after months of being on top I'm having a blip moment the past few weeks I've found myself struggling with my biggest demon sleep again :(. I'm now exhausted and fearful that night time is another long haul :( I've got all my coping strategies at hand but at the momet they all...

Hi @Neenie I admire you for your studies and wish you every success ! I defo believe that it's out anxiety towards T that feeds it or our attention to it saying that I also respect some people have such intrusive T it's life consuming for them. I believe my t was a result of stress fed by it...

@LondonGirl I think our t noise changes as we adapt and react to it I get my usual high pitch tone in my left ear now only when it's really quiet if I wake up in the night which I do a lot ! I get buzzy static noise when stressed tired etc I even had singing I heard music when at my lowest...

I am envious of people who have no problems sleeping - I was on zopiclone at the beginning of my T journey as I sent days and days without sleep - but the Doc controlled what I took very closely to prevent dependency - they give you a quick fix - you get some sleep but you do need to try to...

Oh Dear Rhea - I totally understand how bad you feel after losing a pet - and Im sending you lots of hugs xx My T spikes when stressed but then settles so Im sure once time helps heal your aching heart your T will settle again Cher xx

Yes it has got better less intrusive loud or maybe I've learnt to not let it worry me and as a result it's less loud ! But it is just like the hiss buzz after you've been to a concert xx

How odd today 2 people have asked me about this - yes I do still have evening static buzz noises but I've just learnt to accept it not focus as best I can xx

My T is currently well annoying - Ive got really odd numb fullness sensation and a buzzzzzz thats there all the time - previously my T was a high pitch tone but now a low pitch buzzzz - BUT - although nore constant and intrusive then ever I still feel stronger that IT !! To habituate to a...
