    Jaw Popping, Cracking, Crunching & Should I Not Be Sleeping without Tinnitus Masking?

    I am at around the year and a half mark with my tinnitus and in the last half year I’ve been going in and out of not caring about tinnitus. Is this normal? I’m really nervous my whole life’s going to be a roller coaster. Is it possible to habituate if I have anxiety and depression issues. Thank...

    @Bill Bauer hi Bill thanks for your response. I edited my post to add one thing maybe the most important who knows. When I wake in the middle of the night and move my head from side to side in silence or up and down, I get the crackling sound. None of this stuff happened before I had T. Does...

    I Get a Rumble and Crackle for 2 Seconds Whenever There's a Sound in a Quiet Environment

Whenever there is a sound and I’m in quiet (like a soda pop can popped or I drop a thumbtack on a table) my ear gets a rumble and crackle for 2 seconds. I have been to an ENT and they found nothing. If I wake up...

    Please Help Me Understand Why Tinnitus Impacts Some More Than Others

    Thanks for your detailed response fishbone. I have a question about H. Is it a pain you get with sounds or an emotional reaction? I’ve never liked noise and some unexpected noise causes me anxiety but I have never experienced ear pain.

    Please Help Me Understand Why Tinnitus Impacts Some More Than Others

    Being in the early stages of tinnitus, I have been very vocal with friends and family about my condition, well- being and what was going on. I am amazed at how many friends and family of mine claim they have tinnitus and it does not bother them at all. They either can only hear it if they...

    And also, my audiologist tells me there is 50 million people with tinnitus. Hard to believe this considering there is only thousands on this sub struggling. How are others not struggling?
