I would estimate my sound in my left ear is somewhere in the 13-15kHz region, so this is pretty grim reading, haha. I did read online that some systems aren't capable of replicating these sounds adequately, therefore I understand that listening to them online probably isn't the same as a proper...

Thank you, Michael! I'm hoping that once lockdown restrictions are gone and life gets back to normal, I'll at least get to speak to an audiologist at the tinnitus clinic. I'm not entirely sure what the protocol is there or what they'll do. I believe if there isn't a somatic explanation or...

Is there any way to tell if you have high frequency hearing loss? From doing a little digging around online, it seems pretty impossible to get anything beyond your standard hearing test, at least in my country anyway. But thank you, I definitely intend to! My tinnitus did develop not long after...

Hi Greg! My jaw isn't tensed when I move my neck from side to side or when I look up/down or from side to side/over my shoulder, I'm completely relaxed and the hiss in my head/left ear becomes more pronounced. My baseline doesn't change, just this new sound that's appeared last autumn. My neck...

Hi there fellow Scot! You're the first I've encountered here, haha! My baseline tinnitus is a whine in my left ear, but during an extremely stressful period in my life last autumn, I developed a head hiss/buzz - I think it's located in my left ear also but it feels more like it's located in my...

Hi Michael! Thank you for the response, we spoke some time ago about my tinnitus and I can't say things have changed much since. I saw an ENT around Christmas time who referred me to an audiologist at the tinnitus clinic, but this hasn't yet materialised due to Covid restrictions. I'm in...

Hello everyone! I posted here a good few months ago about my tinnitus, which has been getting worse as the months go on. And like many people here, I'm struggling to find a definitive reason for my onset and the exacerbation of it in previous months. Whilst I do think that my mental health...

Thank you very much for the information, Michael! I appreciate the links also, I'll have a read through them! Would you mind if I private messaged you? (Though, I'm not entirely sure how to do that, haha.)

Hi there! You’ve literally just described what I’m dealing with right now. Mine actually has been extremely reactive to other sounds. It’s the most bearable when I’m in a quiet room or I’m out and about. But the second I’m around noise, be it music, the tv, a fan.. it really irritates it and I’m...

Could you be experiencing another tinnitus flare up? If it’s gone in the past, that’s reassuring, right! It’s difficult not to fixate on a sound in your head when it’s there 24/7, it’s learning how to let go of it and let it phase into the background. Mine has been causing me a lot of distress...

Hi there! I’m actually seeing an ENT next week, my initial tinnitus was so low it never bothered me in my everyday life, just a faint whistling in my ear. I do use headphones, not as frequently as I used to but I do. My doctor has always told me as long as it isn’t excessively loud, it should be...

Hi there, I've had tinnitus for a little under 2 years now and after experiencing extreme anxiety back in late September/early October, I've developed a sound that feels as though it's in my head as opposed to my ears. Think... static, hissing, something of the sort, I can't quite figure out...

I've been dealing with a hissing sound in my head for about 2 months now and it's absolutely insufferable, did it get any better for you or do you still have the head T?

It's amazing that something I've been living with for almost 2 years now has left me completely debilitated in the space of a few weeks. I really had gotten used to the ringing in my ear for a good year and a half, until I was hit with this hissing sound in my head after a few bad weeks of...

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm currently taking tumeric supplements, I'm taking almost every supplement under the sun with little improvement but here's to hoping, haha!

It's absolutely horrific that something that ruins so many people's lives is of little concern to doctors, you'd really think there'd be something they could do in this age of medical advancements. It really does blow my mind, haha. I don't think it's possible for me to see an ENT or any medical...

I'm finding the sound I'm dealing with at the moment is a little reactive to sound so I've been steering clear of noise of any sort. It's the most obnoxious hissing sound that feels like it's coming from my head as opposed to my ears, and it appeared after a particularly bad week of anxiety...

Hi there, thank you for the welcome! :) I've had it for almost 2 years now and I've always managed, it's just this horrible new sound in my head that's driving me round the twist currently. Have you ever dealt with tinnitus spikes before?

Hi there! I actually haven't, I'm very new to all of this, despite having tinnitus for almost 2 years now.

Hi there, I know this thread is a year old. But I'm experiencing this at the minute, a hissing sound in my head that appeared after a particularly bad bout of anxiety. Did this clear up for you or did it replace your baseline T sound?

Hello everyone, I've been reading through this forum for the past few weeks and figured I had nothing to lose in joining. I'm a 28 year old history student from Scotland and I've been suffering from tinnitus for the past year and a half, almost two. What was initially a high pitched, but fairly...
