    Aw thank you!! Yeah I’m not that worried about uni, I know I won’t have to resit, the lowest I’ll get is a 2:1 this year. I’m not that concerned about the actual uni work just more sleep, finances whilst at uni and my mental health aha. Well I wish you all the best! I’m sure you’ll be grand...

    It’s alright! Just everyone’s advice online and in person seems to be to quit my job but no one realises it’s not a job to fund my social life, it’s a job to pay bills and food etc. I have looked into it! I’m a very bright, personable girl with lots of experience in hospitality! However I live...

    I’m sorry to hear you went through the same thing, it’s certainly tough. I’m trying to get the gp to help but they refuse to do anything until I see the ENT but of course I have to wait months to see them hahaha all a bit of a polava. Moving home is really not an option for me. My uni doesn’t...

    Hi @dingaling thanks for your reply! Yeah I do think sleep is the first thing I need to fix. Lack of sleep is what is making me stressed and is only making my tinnitus worse. I’ve literally tried everything possible so I guess I will just go back to the doctor and see if there’s anything I...

    Hi MBH, thanks for your reply! I’ll definitely try to start having my showers at night and maybe look into some form of drowsy pills. Was taking Nytol for a while but it didn’t help but I’ll give your recommendation a go! Listening to background noise doesn’t really seem to help but I’ll also...

    Yeah I have. I’m not on AD for tinnitus and the side effects of it for my actual issues were awful and then when they wore off it just didn’t work. I’m on citalopram now and it works for me for my problems just doesn’t help with tinnitus. As I said above ^^ have been trying for almost a year lol

    Trust me !! I am trying !! Is almost impossible to find another job with only experience in bars and restaurants. I have been searching for ages and I don’t think anyone quite understands the frustration that for the past year I have been rejected from every job I’ve applied for under the...

    Yeah I’m going to go back again and see if that’s makes him realise I’m being serious !! I don’t have any allergies and I don’t grind my teeth either but I have had sleep problems since I was younger, the tinnitus has just increased those problems. It’s annoying because ive tried literally every...

    Tbh like I said to Glynis the doctor isn’t really taking me seriously. I’ve been a number of times and they got a nurse to inspect my ears before referring me but they said the ENT would deal with any hearing loss too which is a pity because I know it takes a while to get referred. I haven’t...

    Yeah I have been to see my doctor but they don’t really seem to be taking me seriously. Last time I went they seemed to think I was exaggerating the whole thing and it was only when I preceded to burst into tears that they even agreed to look at my ears !! I’m finished uni for the year but I’m...

    Hi Glynis, thanks for your reply. Yeah it’s supposed to help sleep! Worth nothing I’m exhausted all the time I feel like I could sleep but anytime I feel like I’m drifting off im woken up by the noise. I’ve tried everything!! Don’t go on any screen devices before bed, drink camomile tea, do...

    Hey guys. Just joined this site today after mulling it over for quite some time. I’m 21 years old and have had tinnitus for quite some time but it’s only been truly noticeable and unpleasant since January 2017. I’m a student and it’s worth noting I’ve worked in bars and restaurants for the past...
