    Does Tinnitus Ever Become Part of Your Life?

    Does Tinnitus Ever Become Part of Your Life?

    I really like this idea! I think this type of “mantra” is just what I need. Still really hard when first waking up and trying to settle down to sleep.

    Someone Please Help (Is the Masking Making It All Worse? How Does Tinnitus Jump Ears?)

    Hi Marie...hope things are going better for you. I have only had tinnitus for 7 months but for me it did get better over time. I was petrified at first that I wouldn't be able to adapt/accept. It's very scary to think "it will always be here." No one in my family had ever had this, and I have 2...

    Am I right in reading that we "can" download this interesting title but have to be careful in stopping "Kindle Unlimited" trial period so we don't have a monthly fee? Would like to read this very much, and thank you for your time and energy Cheza.
