    How Is Counselling Supposed to Help Someone Who Is Depressed Due to Their Tinnitus?

    To me it just seems like another thing to fob us off with because they can't find an actual cure or treatment. I mean, the tinnitus is what is causing me to be unhappy, depressed and suicidal at times, nothing else, I am not mentally ill, if I am it is due to the tinnitus nothing much else. I...
