That's great news. My doc recommended an SSRI but I chose against it, but maybe I should give it a try... I have some questions: -How long have you been on it? -How long do you think you will have to be on it? Do you see yourself ever giving it up? -Is it helping you to habituate? -Does it...

I've been a daily smoker for 20 years, and got T from noise exposure about a year ago. Partaking has helped me cope and sleep, but in my experience I believe that weed has slowed down or delayed my habituation. I've stopped smoking for a few weeks now and the discomfort from T has been a bit...

I've been a daily smoker for 20 years, and got T from noise exposure about a year ago. Partaking in some ways helped me cope and sleep, but in my experience I believe that weed has slowed down or delayed my habituation. I've stopped smoking for a few weeks now and the discomfort from T has been...

I came across T in a smilier way, by standing in front of an alarm for too long. That was one year ago, and I'm about 90% habituated now. I'm still having trouble sleeping consistently well, though. That has been the worst part of it all and has been so frustrating. I'm really trying to find a...

Thanks for the positive post, Chris. Your advice and encouragement are very helpful! I though you were crazy to be able to sleep well in a quiet room, but alas, now I can now do the same! What a relief!!!

I've heard about "acceptance" on here before. I would love to hear more people's experience about just how "acceptance" looks.

I agree. The success stories are a huge, huge help.

Right on, Chris. I always appreciate your posts, which I find positive, helpful, and to-the-point. Thanks, man. You are totally correct that the T itself is not the problem, it's the body's reaction to it that causes distress. Now that you've come this far, do you still have trouble sleeping...

Thank you for the positive post! I've had T for about 6 months now, and my overall anxiety has gone way down, but I am still having fairly significant trouble sleeping. Please, tell me, now that you've habituated, has sleep become normal for you? What's your experience with sleep now?

Hello all. I've had noise-induced T for about 6 months now. I'm 38 years old and grew up playing in loud bands, going to loads of concerts, and listening to heavy metal blasting in my headphones. I wore earplugs 95% of the time I was at band practice or at concerts but I did major damage with...

I also would prefer to stay away from sleep medications, but I have to say, xanax has saved my life. My T doesn't really bother me during the day, but it does cause mild panic attacks at night that make it difficult to unwind, relax, get to sleep or stay asleep. I take a small dose of xanax...
