    Not sure quite where to post this, so admin please move it if necessary.

    Hypnotherapy / Hypnosis for Tinnitus

    Hi, has anyone tried this? I have searched the forum and couldn't find anything so apologies if it's come up before. I know it can't 'cure', but was hoping it could reduce the emotional reaction to the tinnitus and therefore aid habituation .... Probably wishful thinking :)

    Going Back to Work...

    ... after 4 months off from the T starting and resulting anxiety/depression. I know full masking is not recommended for habituation (and isn't always even possible with mine) but need to cope with the initial return to a pretty full-on job. Anyone who has been through similar, advice would be...

    TRT vs Neuromonics vs Acoustic CR Neuromodulation?
