    My Tinnitus Stops When I Listen to Certain Frequencies

    Going on 4.5 Years with Tinnitus

    Just to add something that might comfort you: my tinnitus also started when I was 19. Regardless of the tinnitus I still managed to get my bachelor's degree in engineering and am currently working on getting my masters. Tinnitus is not life ending! You will be able to continue eventually.

I have not exposed myself to loud noise so I think it might have something to do with stress. I have been working quite hard lately. The period before...

    Going on 4.5 Years with Tinnitus

    I've had tinnitus for about 4.5 years now. Dealing with it went with ups and downs, I've had good periods that lasted for months in which I've been able to handle the tinnitus well. Currently I'm battling a particularly bad spike since the start of February that has caused me to start noticing...
