I accidentally set my fire alarm of while I was making dinner (don't know what that says about my cooking skills, hah.) Unfortunately the incident has spiked my tinnitus. Not to an unbearable level but loud enough to be more bothersome than it was before. Damn it. I have been doing so good the...

Since my tinnitus spiked in August 2017 I haven't been able to do anything without masking my tinnitus. It would get on my nerves, trigger me and make me angry or sad. But my spike has gradually faded and I have gotten used to the fact that I can now hear my tinnitus more than I could before...

So. I have always just assumed that my tinnitus is noise induced due to the fact that I have been stupid enough to go to a lot of hard rock concerts without earplugs. My tinnitus didn't appear after a concert though but appeared suddenly from a fleeting tinnitus experience that didn't go away...

So. I got another spike in my tinnitus the other day and I really don't know what caused it. I wasn't near any loud noises at the time. It was just one of those fleeting tinnitus experiences that never really faded entirely. It was the same way my tinnitus started. I haven't got a clue to what...

So I discovered this while I was searching through the news. It's an article about a boy who got tinnitus after a very loud rock concert. The title roughly translates to "webdoc: when the ringing moved into Adam's head" for those of you who do not speak Danish (which probably most of you do...

So. I decided to write this post because I was looking for stories like this when my tinnitus spiked in August last year. So I had had tinnitus for 3.5 years before it spiked. Before the spike I barely noticed it. I heard it at night but it didn't bother me at all. Then in August last year my...

I know I'm not the only one who's in a bad place from time to time and I'm probably not the only one, either, who sometimes searches the internet for funny videos/songs/etc to cheer me up a bit. So my thought was, well. Why not make a thread for funny stuff that will make us laugh or smile when...

I have noticed that a lot of people with unilateral tinnitus tends to want to avoid sleeping with their bad ear against the pillow because the tinnitus becomes unmaskable for obvious reasons. Am I the only one who actually wants to sleep with my bad ear against the pillow because my tinnitus...

Hello. I'm not sure how to describe it any better than I did in the title. Whenever I move my jaw in a certain way it seems as if air gets in behind my eardrum in the right ear. It doesn't happen to my left ear at all. It has been that way for quite some time, even years before my tinnitus in...

Just being curious. How/when did you tinnitus start? In a lot of the stories I read it seems that the tinnitus either started immediately after the acoustic trauma or that the person got it "over night." To me it is a bit different. I have had fleeting tinnitus for as long as I can remember...

Well. For some reason I came to think about this story I read on a Danish page in my early days of desperately searching through the internet in the hope of finding something that would help. Anyhow I thought that it might help someone and decided to share it in this forum. Well the thing is...

Hi. Me again, haha. Well. The thing is. I think my spike is gone. Or almost gone. I still have the new sound that my spike came with but it has subsided to it's very mild baseline loudness, which is well. Nice. I can hear silence again. Almost. Or you know. I can sit in a quiet room without...

Damn. I have had a great day T wise today. I haven't really noticed my T all day and when I did notice it I was able to ignore it and pay attention to whatever I was doing and thereby forgetting it again relatively quickly. It has been almost like my pre-spike days. Also I think the volume has...

Not quite sure where this fits so I'll just put it here, because I guess it's where it fits the best. Anyhow I just wanted to share a little something that I frequently use when I'm going through a rough time, which helps me a lot. It is actually quite simple. At the end of the day write to...

Hi there. I've been peeking around in here for some time, whenever I wanted some comfort because my tinnitus was loud as hell. However I've never registered to this lovely page until now, because well. I didn't want to, but I think it's my time to share my story now. I'm 21 years old and I've...
