With ''screen out'' I think he means the it leaves your conscious thought, I do understand this might not work for all but I believe it does eventually works like this for most. I'm experiencing moments like these myself but yes I can still hear my tinnitus even if I'm not thinking about it.

Hi Everyone (new and old members), I have not been very active on the forum as of late because I am gradually getting back to my life as normal and am very much going through the different stages of habituation. Having experienced a setback these last weeks I am frequenting the forum more...

Ok so my tinnitus seems to be back to baseline (knock on wood). If I were to pinpoint a reason for the spike it was probably being overtrained and over exhausted. My tinnitus usually spikes a bit when I'm tired and I just now realised that I was completely pushing myself over my limits again...

I know right? I barely flinch these days if I hear sounds that annoyed the hell out of me before hahaha.

That leaf sounds a lot like a mosquito on steroids then.

Oh how I miss those moments. Way to describe it too bro, I could almost (not) hear it hahaha.

That sounds like heaven.

Hi Guys, Can I tag along in this thread haha? Same here, tinnitus now for about 18 months, not bothering me for about 6 months. Was doing great, barely heard my tinnitus during the day anymore, am in the midst of starting my own company and have met the love of my life. About 3 - 4 weeks ago my...

Hi Guys, Been a while since I posted on the forum, this last week I had a few episodes of anxiety attacks due to my tinnitus seeming louder than usual... I have the anxiety reasonably under control due to the fact that I already habituated once and trust I will habituate to this too if it...

Wrong platform bro, this forum is Doom & Gloom HQ If I were you I'd spend as little time as possible on here and avoid some of the more notoriously negative members on here. They are easy to spot ... With the meds, be careful, I had to take Xanax to get over the anxiety but it will be better...

LMAO :P

Note that there are 400 million people with some form of T and yet you can quote only 6 anecdotally.

Same here, well at least it's something!

Yeah he really does, that's awesome :P

Has yours changed at all during the past 9 months?

Quite an offensive thing to say and a bit of guesswork, you have no real clue to my mindset nor do you know me or any of my previous accomplishments nor does it matter in this particular case. Referring to the audiogram, to exclude all possible causes and I definitely encourage anyone to do...

Hard to say but I think it has, I'm way more occupied with other things as well so I focus on it less as well.

I thought it was stress but to be honest I'm not so sure anymore. I was on some similar meds as Clonozepam but quit using any meds altogether. You keep saying ''Temporary Tinnitus'' like this is a thing but it is not, some Tinnitus goes, some stays, there is no telling however if it is temporary...

Not to be pessimistic here but I can assure you that mindset has absolutely zero to do with Tinnitus staying or going. As to the audiogram, my hearing checked out perfectly fine as well but yet 9 months later I still have Tinnitus. I get that you guys just got Tinnitus and that it is a very...

So went back for another session today, and another drop in volume. Not gone but definetely a bit less bothersome now.

Thanks for this! It's always greatly encouraging to read experiences like yours.

Thanks, I'm very happy to have tapered the benzos, I was taking 0,5mg Xanax XR and 20MG Temazepam every day and was becoming lethargic from it, God knows I needed it though because I wouldn't have gotten through that first period without it ... Your dose is not that high, if you want to taper...

Hi Ann, Thanks for your reply, let's hope that's the case! Certainly want to believe that ...

Hi Crystal, Although I'm not a lady by all intents and purposes I just wanted to reply to your question all the same :P It seems you and I developed Tinnitus around the same time, I read one of your posts and we both appear to have the fun intrusive variety, yay! Anyway, as to your question...

Awesome Avatar, I just finished the new God of War yesterday :) Did you play it?

Hi Guys, So this month is my 7th month and I left the worst of the anxiety behind me, I can sleep again without medication (although I do need ambient sound all night) and have quit taking benzos altogether which was a challenge to taper, luckily no increase in my tinnitus after tapering off...

@caffclifton Thank you for sharing your update!

You are right, thank you for your help!

Hi Paulie, Thanks for answering, I think I'd actually prefer the Azithromycin as it is a one time dose of 1000mg, do you think this dosage only once should be safe?

Hi Guys, I might be needing a course of antibiotics and have been reading quite a bit about potential increases in tinnitus. The course would be 1x 1000mg of Azithromycin, 200 mg per day for 7 days for Doxycycline or 3x 500 mg per day for 7 days in case of Amoxicillin. 1. Has anyone had any...

All my symptoms subsided fortunately, only the Tinnitus is left but it could be unrelated seeing as all my symptoms subsided after 8 weeks. Your symptoms don't really sound like Vestibular Neuritis or Labyrinthitis to be honest ...

Thank you for sharing your story! Out of curiosity, what do you consider low T?

Hi Steve, What organisations are actually working on solving this problem then? I don't mean to be disrespectful but it sounds to me that there was no real tangible new or groundbreaking research discussed at the TRI ... Was there anything particularly noteworthy?

Nothing really, MDMA (the pure chrystals) just make you very happy and euphoric. It makes you release extra serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocine. That's not saying anything really as you have no idea of the actual quality of the drug they took nor their dosage or if for this particular person it...

Interesting trials now completed, results coming soon ... http://mixmag.net/read/scientists-have-completed-trials-attempting-to-cure-tinnitus-with-mdma-news

So you don't have constant tinnitus?

How many people worked in factories back in the day? And how many worked in heavy industry such as coal mining? Don't forget about the second world war neither, I don't think it's that much more prevalent now compared to then, maybe more than in the 70's but I don't think it's more common now...

I would not be so sure about that ... I heard that in Scotland there are kilt wearing gangs that ambush you with their bagpipes as soon as you leave the airport ...

I would say the US is much closer to being a failed state ... http://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/compare/United-Kingdom/United-States/Crime http://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/compare/Canada/United-States/Crime

Dearborn Michigan?

Are you for real? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_shootings_in_the_United_States

No, definitely not :p I have no idea, I have been lifting for over 12 years and also kickboxing so it could be, I've also had bad posture at desk jobs but I had a very stressful period and labyrinthitis as well, that and I've been to many clubs, movies, listened to Mp3 players etc. So who knows?

I don't know, my hearing test came out perfectly fine but it could be that I have some hidden hearing loss or damage to the inner structure of the ear. I think what mainly influenced it was the relaxation and the distratiction ... but then again it could also be due to some correction of the...

I think you already gave the answer, both of them already have it for quite some time. Also the "wiring" of our brains is plastic so in time this should change too ... My psychiatrist has quite severe T (unmaskable glass cutter sound) in his right ear and he is fully habituated (works in a...

Yes Greg, I already confirmed that in my latter post, no need to get upset. Anyway "tuning into" can mean a whole variery of things, maybe his is moderate but he has learned to "tune in and out of it" ...

You're right, my bad. Sorry to hear about your T being so intrusive man, that sucks, I hope you'll get to a point where it stops bothering you as much. I think Martin's tinnitus is indeed not as severe, he probably wouldnt be talking about it in such a frivolous way if it were severe. I would...

He "says" it is mild and does not bother him (much) anymore. He also says he only has it in one ear and feels it would be much harder to have it in two (which I think is nonsense since it's annoying either way). It's always difficult to tell whether that is the complete truth, Pete Townsend says...

He's had it for quite some time, there is no telling how ''severe'' his is, maybe he just habituated to a point where it no longer bothers him that much ... My psychiatrist has tinnitus as well, his came from an acoustic trauma, he compared the sound to glass being cut by a disc cutter and he...

LMAO

You got me all figured out.

How I imagine you: I am way past taking you serious.

You are wrong, Bill is right, social life is death, end of discussion.

Don't forget the never leave the house, I'd rather be raped than socialise yet am fully habituated wearing earmuffs in the house in case my door slams and causes acoustic trauma group ... Just saying ...

I've got the same policy for autistic hermits

GTA5, the Last of Us, Uncharted 4, South Park the Fractured But Whole, Horizon Zero Dawn, Ratchet & Clank etc. Looking forward to Red Dead Redemption 2, Days Gone and God of War 4!

I think you're right, even though my audiogram did not show any (detectable) hearing loss I have been blasting my iPod and Mp3 players for many years when I was a teenager and even as an adolescent. Even though I did not visit clubs every weekend over the years I have frequented them quite...

Same here but I quit when I got T, it's just no fun anymore ... Sometimes I even think maybe smoking weed all this years contributed to getting T as well. Dutch weed is pretty damn strong ...

The plot thickens ...

Lol, this thread is still going :P
