My tinnitus came about a week ago after a loud noise exposure. This is a fact. However, everyone that was with me has had their ears recover. So, I am wondering if my anxiety/obsession with the low volume noise (that has, to a degree, gotten better) is all in my head. Is that a possibility...

Other than when it is quiet, I can rarely hear my tinnitus. However, I don't think I would be able to hear it much if I wasn't obsessed. Do any of you have any tips?

What is the worst? Thank you.

That is good! Thank you! But, may I ask, how did it come again, and when did it dissipate for you as in how long? And if I may trouble you, where can I find this study?

Really? Is that common? Has it for you?

I'm going to ask my questions first in case no one wants to read my book that will be underneath. So here they are: How do I continue on when this is in my ear or mind 24/7 and I know it is permanent so it won't go away and will likely get worse? Also, how can I enjoy time with my family? They...
