    New Sufferer... Really Need Advice and Help

    Hi! I just want to offer some words of comfort. I've had tinnitus for over a year now - brought on by ear infections. I have severe anxiety, depression, and OCD. I thought there was no chance I could ever feel better, because with OCD, it's impossible not to focus on it. At the beginning, I'd...

    Flying & Tinnitus

    Hey guys, I have to take an airplane to visit my boyfriend's family. Haven't been on one since getting T, and I have heard that people develop tinnitus from airplane rides, so I'm not thrilled. But I can't exactly refuse to ever ride a plane again, as much as I'd like to, so I'd love some...

    My Story So Far :(

    I'm sorry to hear how much you've been struggling. At three weeks, yours could certainly go away or become less bothersome. I think the most comforting thing to me is that there's people out there who find T to be annoying and nothing more. Doesn't that sound wonderful? the next best thing to...

    My Story So Far :(

    I'm a 21 year old college student. Before tinnitus, I struggled with anxiety, panic disorder, depression, and OCD. Last semester, I got the worst cold of my life. My boyfriend had it, too, but his experience was much different than my own. He got an ear infection, but no tinnitus. I got two, and...
