    Thank you, I'll try that. Just feel frustrated because it's been quiet for a long-ish time then THIS.

    I have but it just refuses to work. I find that usually ear buds or ear phones will help but I have none with me or anything.

    OWW

    So, it has been a while for me on this forum. I thought I would be able to make it without making any more posts or threads. But, tonight, it's bad. Head-splitting bad. I can't hear myself type and I can barely hear myself think. I just need something, anything to distract me. Please

    Low-Frequency Pulsatile Tinnitus and Atrial Fibrillation

    Well, I don't know if there's a link, but I figure I'd give you support. A lot of the things I say are easier said than done, seeing as I habituated at an early age, but just don't panic. T feeds off of anxiety and panic and you just can't listen to it. If it's there, just say to yourself, "It...

    Ear Pains

    So as it turns out, I have had T for about 12-13 years now, and as of the moment I'm 15. Having T from such a young age, it habituated easily, but that's not what I'm worried about. I only discovered I had T because I also discovered that I'm having chronic ear pains. And they didn't start...

    Introduction

    If I had to guess, it's probably an ear infection since it goes away when you plug your ear. Also, clean your ears every week if you don't already. I don't know much about it though, so I could easily be wrong Anyways, have a great day. :3

    Hello, New Here and Quite Scared and Troubled

    Do not panic! Easier said than done, I know, but T absolutley feasts on things like anxiety and panic. It's especially easy for me to say that as I consider myself one of the extremely lucky few who habituated T early in life. I had a nad ear infection at 2 years old, and although it was fixed...

    Anyone Hear of This Before? Pitch Change/Additional Pitch With Change in Blood Pressure

    Hey David, I know exactly what you're talking about. I don't know anything about blood pressure or ear infections or any of that, but whenever I tense up my neck/neck muscles my T gets so loud it overpowers max volume headphones. I have habituated my T for the most part, but I know that if it...

    Pitch Change

    I'm getting a little anxious after my T which has always been high suddenly went super low. I should be fine in the end but honestly I'm just looking for some comfort.

    When I Move My Head at Night My Tinnitus Increases. Does This Happen to Anyone Else?

    The first question I have is, does it stay increased or does it go away when you return to your original position? For me, usually it amps up for a few minutes but once my head gets comfortable in that position the ringing simmers down again. :3

    Hello Everyone, I'm a New Member Looking for Hope

    Just from the beginning of your paragraph, it's most likely not tinnitus. I suggest you just go see your ENT to get a checkup or something. Hope I helped enough. :3

    Post Your Favorite Songs

    I can't really pick a favorite, but if I had to pick a few of the better songs I listen to, I would pick crushcrushcrush by Paramour, If it means a lot to you by A Day to Remember, and Misery Business also by Paramour. :3

    Afraid it might be an ear infection. Those can be pretty bad. I'm almost hoping it's tinnitus.

    Advice for Day After Spike?

    Well, what I do is just try to maybe come to terms with the spike, especially at night. Just try to be like, "Even if it's louder tonight, I've dealt with it before and I can deal with it now." What I do if even mental will fails, is just listen to a podcast or something until I fall asleep...

    Favourite Video Games?

    @Steve I think the expansions are much better. The game doesn't have much story, but I suggest you play it a bit more to find a secret story. Or you could look it up on youtube. However, there are a lot of aspects in every expansion that make the game extra fun, and you could make different...

    Afternoon/Night

    Some days when it gets more towards night time and I get more tired, I start to hear the ringing more. I'm usually fine for the whole day (even though it's not really a set thing since I'm only just hearing T) but when it gets to nighttime I just get overly anxious and I can't sleep for some...

    Mothers

    I had Netflix on in the background of my computer, and I would watch it every once in a while and also to serve as a sort mask. I mean, I would have been watching Netflix whether I had T or not but it helped when I made it just loud enough. Anyway, my mom walks in and tells me that I shouldn't...

    Ugh I Guess

    @billie48 Thank you so much for the help. I was really anxious the first day and panicked a lot because I didn't know what I was, then I found this forum looking up what was 'wrong' with me. Thank you so much for the help, again. :3

    New Here, Looking for Anything New

    Hey, man glad you've joined. I only just joined myself, so I don't really have super wise advice but still :P. I think I've had T for a really long time now as well but I also thought it was normal because it was never really super problematic or loud until now. The one thing I have to say to...

    Earplugs

    So earplugs just help it not hurt or get worse in the long run? because if that's true then I took a completely wierd approach to it xD. Thanks for telling me though. I still don't really know if I want to try them. I probably only will if it gets super bad.

    Lower Noises

    Sometimes I hear low-flying airplanes or my dryer powering down. My T is a really high frequency sound, so it really helps. Just thought I'd mention it.

    Try not to use treatment, so you won't get withdrawal. If you use them then the time you'll have without treatments will be that much worse.

    Earplugs

    So, I'm still relatively new to the louder, problematic part of tinnitus. I think I have actually had it for a while, but I never knew what it was because it was so quiet and it wasn't there all the time. I don't really know why it's popping up now, but this forum really helps. Anyway, onto the...

    Ugh I Guess

    @papu Thanks so much, that really helps. I think I'll try some of those things, but I've heard medication doesn't help most people. But again, thanks for helping, and I'll definitely try all my options. :)

    Ugh I Guess

    So I'm brand new to tinnitus. I am already looking at ways to help it but I'm also already feeling pretty discouraged. I wont let it get to me as much as possible but I have some pretty bad anxiety disorder so idk.
