One of the awful things about tinnitus is that it drags us down into a spiral of despair. Our thoughts are incessantly negative full of anger and hopelessness. One antidote to this is walking with gratitude. Whenever I walk I try to be thankful for everything good in my life. This may be small...

Today while climbing Cave Hill on the outskirts of Belfast I noticed that the sounds emanating from the city were completely masking my tinnitus. I guess the sounds were mostly made by cars. Is there a sound machine that could mimic this? It would be great for the bedroom at night. I guess it...

Has anyone ever tried earthing to deal with tinnitus? Having just been regifted with loud tinnitus via the Pfizer vaccine I am looking for ways to reduce inflammation. Earthing is said to do this by reconnecting with the ions given off by the earth. Basically you walk or stand barefoot on sand...

I have had tinnitus since 2014. For the past couple of years it grew milder and most of the time I could ignore it. However recently I used a very loud vacuum cleaner for about a half hour straight while renovating a property. I noticed my tinnitus had spiked immediately after I switched the...

I had pulsatile tinnitus for about 8 months from Oct 2014. This went away by itself without anything I can point to helping it except maybe going on holiday and living life as if I hadn't got it. My second bout of tinnitus started in Feb 2016 and was the tonal sort. I developed multitones in my...

A sponsored ad for a book by Glenn Schweitzer called Rewiring Tinnitus appeared in my Facebook feed. Quite a lot of comments and the author does comment in reply quite a bit. Anyone read this book who would care to give us their opinion...

Came across an article theorizing that heretofore medically untreatable idiopathic tinnitus could be linked to hyperuricemia (gout is one example of this condition). 'Can idiopathic tinnitus be caused by hyperuricemia' P.E. Newman Medical Hypotheses (1998) 50, 535-536 The article specifically...

Tinnitus can be a bastard to deal with on a day to day basis. I have found that mindful walking in nature calms my head and often leads to restful sleep later that night. The following is a process I follow on my walks. It is from the Association of Forest Therapy Guides. They base it on...

I have been attending a healer here in Ireland for several weeks now. I must say I have been sleeping better and the T is much more variable with it sometimes being very low. I have also noticed my myoclonus and tympanic twitching occurs less as well although last night it recurred. The healer...

I have a constant tone when I lie still but if I move my head the tone changes briefly down. Its like having a movement alarm in my head which is very annoying especially at night. Anyone else have this?

I am often lying in bed during the afternoon and evening and my tinnitus sounds quite mild and far away like outside my body. As it becomes darker and quieter the t seems to surround my head and become louder. Anyone elese experience this? I would add that my t can sound quite loud during the...

Was reading an article by Lama Yeshe on pain and illness. He views pain and illness as one of the best ways of purifying Karma. I found this oddly comforting. I would go on to suggest that it is not just my own negative karma that is being cleansed through the tinnitus torment but that of this...

Since I have had tinnitus I have never felt physically better. I walk 3 miles a day, eat healthily, juice and drink a bit less alcohol. It has also helped my addiction. Over the last 20 years or so I have lost literally hundreds of thousands of pounds gambling - poker, horses, stocks and shares...

Having looked about numerous forums on pulsatile tinnitus I have discovered that there seems to be some kind of virus affecting a great number of people. The symptoms are congestion of the sinuses and a kind of clogging of the throat. I live in N Ireland and I've heard many people reporting the...

I have been sufering from PT for around 5 months now. I have it in my left ear. I believe it is associated with a severe infection I had in April 2014. I had a terrible bout of a flu-like condition and it led to a perforated eardrum (quite possibly the worst pain I have ever experienced). I had...
