Hi Brown Bear, I've been reading your thread with interest. I developed T in 2003, probably from going to clubs and gigs, although no hearing test has ever shown any hearing loss greater than that expected with age. I muddled through good and bad times in the beginning and then got to a point...

That's interesting Bobby. I don't seem to have any significant high end hearing loss for my age. I can still hear to just over 15khz which is apparently good for my age (nearly 40). I've also taken those speech comprehension tests (listening to people over the Hoover, in the cafe etc) and I...

I developed T 18 years ago, and for the last four years have been A-symptomatic. I'm sure it was there if I really searched for it, but to all intents and purposes it was gone. But I went to a concert without hearing protection and now many symptoms are back although I don't believe I have...

Ten days later and things are much better, although my response to the spike is still very emotive and I would definitely say I'm a bit depressed. My husband keeps reminding me that obsessing over it will just make it worse but of course it's hard not to. I feel that because I got to the point...

Thanks Michael

Thanks Billie T, good scientific advice. I've not had a bad day today. But emosh at times which upsets the kids but also had moments where I've either not noticed the T or realised I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't been thinking about it. Managed to beat my six year old at monopoly in spite...

I guess one of the key things to say is that the sounds don't bother me as much as the fact that they are there through my own good fault. I appreciate the sentiment 'what's done is done' - and of course there were 8000 people at that gig and the vast majority were not wearing ear protection and...

Thanks for the replies. I'm trying hard to be casual but it is getting to me. My husband, who has also suffered from and habituated to T in the past, and was also not wearing ear plugs, says he didn't feel the concert was that loud and he isn't having any problems. He thinks my stress is the...

Great post! I developed at in my early twenties, but managed to habituated it. Until a few days ago I'd forgotten I'd had it - I'd not experienced noticeable T for six years. Unfortunately I've had an unexpected set back but it's good to be reminded of these positive stories. My husband also has...

Hi there T-team, I'm feeling very foolish today after a basic mistake at the weekend has lead to a resurgence of symptoms accompanied by anxiety. I first experienced tinnitus symptoms in my early twenties, most likely caused by exposure to loud noise as I was a big gig-goer and night-clubber...
