    Feedback/Ringing When Talking

    I'm not hearing clicking or popping. No pain. Just a distortion kind of sound that's around a 4/10 on the loudness scale. Like I said it gets louder whenever the sink is running, toilet filling up, fan blowing. Like a fast "ranran ran ranranranranran ran ran ran ranranranran ." Or a kind of...

    Feedback/Ringing When Talking

    Thanks for the reply but could you go into more detail about this? What caused yours and is the TTS caused by "over-hearing" and your brain being on red alert while listening to your tinnitus? Almost every sound I hear has a sort of quiet to moderate feedback type beeping/whistling/metallic...

    Feedback/Ringing When Talking

    First off, hope everyone is doing well.. I've been trying to stay clear of this forum and all other forums. Just to try to accept it and get on with my life. I would occasionally come back and read stuff, but now that I have some questions, I just thought I'd ask and see what the responses...

    Drugs, what's best?

    I can only speak for myself but I have to warn you about the danger of benzo's (klonopin, xanax) I was on Klonopin .5 mg for 5 months for anxiety. I decided to taper off of because it actually does more harm to your body than good, and let me warn you, I suffered and I mean SUFFERED through...

    Multiple Sounds. Enough is Enough.

    Carlover I've seen 2 ENT's and they both have checked my hearing, ear drums, and hair cells. Everything is perfect/normal. No hearing loss, but the doctor did say something did happen inside my head. But he can't pinpoint it and there's nothing he can do. It could get better or it could get...

    Multiple Sounds. Enough is Enough.

    How do I habituate to this? Is there anybody else on this board that has or is experiencing the same type of things I've described? Feeling kind of alone, especially with so many things going on in my ears/head. Could this be a sign of the brain trying to heal what happened with me?

    Multiple Sounds. Enough is Enough.

    Also, saw another ENT today. The audiologist checked my hearing, ear drums, and inner hair cells. Everything was perfect. Perfect everything. Go figure. He told me that something did happen that caused trauma somewhere inside my ears. Impossible to find out where it's coming from. Nothing he...

    How Do You Sleep?

    Thanks carlover My tinnitus is just way too high pitched for the pink noise. Currently, I have the fan on, crickets sound machine playing, and the tv on and my left ear is just screaming with unbelievably high pitched T. All of the sounds seem to make my head kind of go crazy. Like different...

    How Do You Sleep?

    I took two 3mg melatonins last night just to help me get to sleep faster. Boy last night was another rough one. I laid on my back with my box fan on and the crickets sound playing on the sound maker and my T was SCREAMING I was so exhausted and just wanted to get to sleep Didn't matter where...

    How Do You Sleep?

    I've had a mild case of T my whole life. Usually never heard it unless I was drinking and went into a quiet room, or I was trying to go to sleep without anything on. That was it...boy was I lucky Now after what happened 4 weeks ago, March 30, it's unbearable. Such a loud and cringe worthy...

    How Do You Sleep?

    Once I get to sleep, I'm usually ok.. But whenever I lie down, the high pitched hissing/ringing is just so loud If I turn my head and lie on my right ear, it's almost impossible to keep it there. It is SCREAMING. I try to just lie on my back but I love to sleep on my sides and everything from...

    Ear Ringing to High Pitch

    I understand not to panic and to try to ignore it. But I hear this over everything and nothing masks it, so it's tough to kind of escape from it and relax. The high pitched hissing/ringing is a cringe worth thing that hopefully will die down just a bit over time. The other one likes to just...

    Ear Ringing to High Pitch

    Thanks for the quick reply. By whistling/feedback I mean that's what I hear whenever there's music playing or a certain sound enters my ears. Certain stuff sounds distorted. That morse code sound is horrible. Like my high frequency part of my hearing is damaged. I don't hear any ringing when I...

    Ear Ringing to High Pitch

    I don't have tubes in either of my ears. Did you experience the whistling/feedback sound prior to having those put in? Also has anything helped you with those sounds? I swear it sounds just like a shovel being dragged across gravel. Until I listen to music. Then it's the high pitched feedback...

    Ear Ringing to High Pitch

    The reason I ask is because I've developed a crazy tinnitus after 2 gunshots without hearing protection. Currently I have a loud high pitched ringing in my right ear, when I lay my head down on the pillow on my right side it is screaming loud. In my left ear, it's like a morse code...

    Packy, I noticed you got your tinnitus after a series of gunshots. Would you mind explaining what happened as soon as you shot the gun and what your tinnitus sounds like now? Has it changed over time?

    What Is Causing This Sound?

    Hey Dr. Nagler, I desperately need some advice. Here's where I'm at right now. I've been through a lot the past year, a lot that's toughened me up and has taught me to give stuff time. Saying that, as scared as I am right now, I know stuff takes time and not to obsess over something. But this...

    Morse Code Sound Changing Tones/Advice?

    The thing is I'm not even trying to listen for it, at all. I was just at a friends house with a ton of people and we were playing foozball. Music was playing, not too loud. I had cotton balls in my ears and I can still hear this crazy morse code feedback noise. It comes from sounds entering my...

    Well today I went and got a massage done to see if that would help. It was called a Cranial Sacral Massage. If anything, it calmed me down and relaxed me, but I could still hear my tinnitus the whole time. But of course I was listening for it constantly to see if it was calming down. Some of it...

    What caused yours and what did it exactly sound like at the beginning compared to now? If the morse code sound doesn't go away, and is permanent how quiet will it get over time to the point where I only notice it if I concentrate and listen for it? Right now I hear it over everything

    Cartman, How long ago were you exposed to the bomb blast? And what exactly happened whenever it went off? Whenever I shot that .38 special my ears were shocked and rang for a good 5 seconds. Then the rest of the day they felt tight and my hearing felt super off and I was terrified. It felt like...

    I've been to the ENT 3 times the last 2 weeks. They've checked the pressure in my ears as well as looking inside them. Everything looks good. The first couple of days after it happened they felt full somewhat, but it could've been because I was so tense. And the morse code is much too fast for...

    There's no giving up in me, Karen. I've been through hell with the benzo withdrawal, and perhaps you're right with my ears being so sensitive and then the gunshot just absolutely crushed them. I so hope the beeping settles down somewhat. It's just too loud and fast too try to ignore. Imagine...

    I truly don't know how anybody can get used to hearing this extremely fast beeping. I'm not sure if it's even considered PT. It's much too fast. The really sad thing is, I just got off of anxiety meds because of what they did to my body. Benzo's in particular. So that's not an option. I went...

    No, tinnitus wasn't even on my mind. I was tapering because of the effects the drug was doing to my body. No tinnitus at all. I've had a mild case for a long time, but got over it.

    The thing is, I just tapered off of Klonopin, a benzo that's supposed to "help" tinnitus. I have terrible anxiety and I was on it for panic attacks. It gave me terrible headaches so I got off of it. I suffered through 8 months of withdrawal, and then this happened. The beeping is so loud and...
