    Can Ear Wax Make Tinnitus Louder?

    I appreciate your kindness. Thank you. Unfortunately I have been suicidal this month. This may be my last post ever. Nobody understands, and I can’t “live” like this. It’s debilitating and there is nothing. Therapy doesn’t count. Signing off of life, Captain Jack

    Neuroinflammation Mediates Noise-Induced Synaptic Imbalance and Tinnitus in Rodent Models

    This may be an asinine question but does Curcumin need to be built up in your system like a vitamin or supplement? I don't expect to pop a Curcumin pill and be healed or have an effect immediately. I am assuming this takes time? Captain Jack

    Overmasturbation Tinnitus?

    The Depression Is Overwhelming

    I made my profile a long time ago and haven't logged on here in some time. I took all forum advice to avoid forums as they were super negative, and it would supposedly help habituate. It hasn't helped. Captain Jack
