    New Tones All the Time?

    I'm at a loss. My tinnitus has only gotten worse over time, it seems like I get new tones every 3-6 months. Why is this happening? Why would tinnitus get progressively worse? Even if I ignore it, even if I de-stress, I still get NEW noises altogether. It seems like a lot of people get...

    Is This Hyperacusis?

    So I got tinnitus about two and a half years ago. I had habituated pretty successfully last September -- I am an academic, and I was able to read and work in silent rooms with my tinnitus, which at first was a very loud distressing constant hissing. I even had more tones like crickets and a...

I think about dying every day. I want to be dead. I would rather be dead than have this. I had a hissing sound in my left ear...

    Clicking Sounds When Popping Ears?

    Hi everyone, I guess I'm at a point where I'm realizing my tinnitus is related to something that's probably been happening for a really long time. My main question is related to a really specific sensation I get when I half-pop my ears: you know when you open your jaw and you pop your ears...

    Radio Dial Noise That Constantly Changes

    Hi all, I'm having a rough time here. I have always had a hissing in my left ear, and I pretty much had habituated to it. But, I now have this constantly fluctuating EEEEEEE hissing noise that goes up and down constantly, like every 3-4 seconds, like someone turning a radio dial. I was...

    Trying to Cope, Needing Support Desperately

    Hi all, I have had tinnitus since about March 2016, so I guess like a year and a half. It happened after a show, but also at the peak of my onset of PTSD. Since then, I've had certain tones come and go, but my constant has been a hissing in the left ear. After about a year, I finally pretty...
