Hi Gareth, did you have the balloon inflation done? Hope you are keeping well.

Try and stay calm 17 days is not long at all for most people the tinnitus will only be temporary so try not to panic. I know it’s hard to stay calm. Try some relaxation videos on YouTube like progressive muscle relaxation. What do you think the cause of your tinnitus was? Sorry I am confused by...

Hi, I’ve been having a hard time lately a very stressful couple of months with numerous things. A break up with my long term partner was the first, we are talking again and seeing each other which is good. She also had some awful news about her health the other week. My mum has just...

That is true, I keep pausing the tv to see if he has any in, I can’t see any. It just seems like he has a pair of ear buds or headphone hanging from his neck. Saying that I have a friend that has noise induced and still goes clubbing ect. Man, what I would do to be able to go to listen to...

Oh okay, I thought with sound induced tinnitus it did. I wish mine didn’t react that would be nice :)

I still have Facebook, but I try not to comment on many things because people are such keyboard warriors. The way people treat each other on the Facebook is so sad it really makes me angry and upset how much bullying ect goes on.

I'm watching the Voice Kids UK and I’ve read that Will.i.am has tinnitus very badly from a loud music video he did. He doesn’t even have ear plugs in. How is that even possible?

@Bill Bauer Sorry you had a spike that lasted so long. I’m glad it finally went though.

@Bill Bauer thanks for those links I feel calmer in the sense a spike can last so long as still go back to how it was before. Thank you

@glynis im in the uk so it’s the same time for me too, thank you I hope you have a lovely weekend too. @Bill Bauer thank you, I will keep that in mind and stay calm as much as possible.

@glynis no I’m not superstitious lol or I think I’d be panicking even more having 7 years bad luck. I reversed my car in to another car a few days ago by accident and smashed my reflector light. I don’t think I need a mirror breaking to give me bad luck this week :dohanimation: Xxx

Luckily it didn’t shatter it just has a crack down it and I broke one side of where the mirror is attacked to the back if that makes sense? I put my hand out to stop myself falling and fell in to the mirror and then it smacked off the wall and make a crack down it but it banged on the wall. I...

I just lost my footing and fell in to the dressing table and the mirror hit the wall and smashed. I don’t know how far away my ear was when it happened. I just know my ear is going crazy and I’m in a panic and I don’t know how I’m going to cope. I don’t think I am ever going to be able to cope...

Fingers crossed :)

Well done I am giving up next week, I’m going to vape low nic at first then taper off. Just to take the edge off. Well done

@dazraf I’ve been taking a tablespoon in the morning on an empty stomach I read this is best online. But I’ve been wondering the same. @al-Haifawi how did you take yours? Thanks :)

Thank you @Christophe_85 And thanks @fishbone that is good advice. I slammed the toilet lid by accident about a month ago it panics me for a few days then wears off when stuff like this happens.

Hello, I didn’t go for my mri. I was very anxious anyway and then my neighbour was very nasty to me and I just couldn’t deal with it that day. I did phone and cancel and told them what had happened. I’ve gone to stay with a friend to stay away from them while I try and get moved. Thanks for all...

I am so nervous about it. I have macks slim fit soft foam ear plugs 29DB do you think they will be ok with the ear muffs they give me as well?

Thank you @Michael Leigh. Just hope this doesn't cause another permanent spike.

My neighbors just used a drill upstairs. I put my fingers in my ear as quick as I could. Now my left ear feels full. I don't know if it's ringing louder. But I can't cope anymore. I'm supposed to go for an MRI later today but I'm going to call the hospital and cancel it I have decided after...

The burning sensation is very normal I get it on my legs and feet. I think benzo withdrawal can make T and H worse until we heal from benzos. That's what I have read on a benzo forum and heard in facebook groups. I am also struggling with all sounds at the moment beacuse of H. If you ever need...

Well done. Benzos are so hard to come off. Just go very slow the last bit can be the hardest. Have you read the Ashton manual? it might help. How are you feeling now?

Sounds to me like it's a normal benzo withdrawal symptom. I finished tapering benzos 5 months ago and am still having benzo withdrawal symptoms. Are you doing a slow taper?

@Kolisar Lol well if it wasn't for pong gaming probably wouldn't be where it is today :) The first gaming thing I had was a gameboy.

@Kolisar I just had to google what the pong was lol I had no idea. Yeah defo look at shenmue it was such a brilliant game for its time. I even bought a dreamcast just so I can still play that game.

@Kolisar i haven't played portal. I don't know how old you are so you might not know it. Did you ever play shenmue on the dreamcast? That's my all time favourite game. They are bringing out number 3 next year I've waited so long lol. I'm not brilliant on GTA online always getting blown up and...

@Kolisar I have an Xbox one as well but I mainly use my PS4 pro now. Games I play online are GTA and call of duty. I have got loads of games though. I really loved the last guardian on PS4 it was brilliant. I have started playing the new life is strange as it's quite calming but distracts me...

@Kolisar Thanks for the info about benzos. I actually did a slow taper over 4 years with the help of online facebook groups. I've only been off them for 5 months. I'm still very unwell with benzo withdrawal. So with that and T and H ugh it's really hard. Thanks for your support I've read most...

@Kolisar Unfortunatley its still not working. I've logged out and then back in. Linked my facebook account to my profile as I thought that might work for some reason lol.

thanks for the message I did get it, I cant reply though I dont have that box under it. It just goes straight to support tinnitus talk. Do you think its cos i am a new member maybe? @Kolisar

@Kolisar i cant find how to message back. I dont have that box you said.

Thanks, I have read most of them links you shared with me. It gives me hope that so many people have learnt to live with T and H. I did the back to silence method with my left ear and it helped a lot. But it doesn't seem to work with the right as well maybe I am doing it wrong. Or just in a bad...

Thank you so much for your lovely message I will look through all the links you have sent me. I'm glad I have found this place :)

Hi, this is the first time I have actually posted on the forum. I've had tinnitus since October last year it started in my left ear and I had nothing in my right. The left ear improved or maybe I just coped with it. Then randomly it started in my right ear slowly getting worse. I had...
