    Goodbye for a while...

    :thankyousign:Hi all, Thank you so much for all your invaluable help over the last weeks. I've been to see my excellent tinnitus therapist/expert today and as I thought, I must stay away from these sites for a while. I will check in a couple of more times today and then that will be it for...

    Really struggling....any help welcome!

    Hi Folks, I'm having a real downer today. I have to stay in because I'm at my daughter's house waiting for a parcel to be delivered and when I don't have enough to occupy my mind it can really get to me. I tell myself all the sensible things about not reacting to it, it's only music of the...

    Hi, I'm Beth and I'm new here....

    I'm a long term (6 years) tinnitus sufferer and I would love to find out if anyone else has been on the same sort of journey. Mine started with a very quiet sound in one ear but I went into total panic and became really phobic about it. I used to go into quiet rooms and put my fingers in my ears...
