    Poll: Do You Mask Your Tinnitus When You Sleep?

    I've tried it, but my masking level is so high, that just having mix with the screeching is too much input and it's harder to fall asleep for me. I like masking during the day and it helps me read, but curiously doesn't help to fall asleep.

    Turmeric with Curcumin Seems to Be Helping

    The second time I woke up after starting it (36 hrs from start), and really noticed it going to bed on that third day. It was as though when I laid down I was waiting for the torture to start, but it didn't. It was just ringing and annoying. That was 60 hrs in and I had taken 10 grams in that...

    I Invented a Sound That Knocked Out My Tinnitus

    Ha. I was going to wait for a week of trying till I posted anything, but last night was my 3rd night. Today as I sat in a quiet room I noticed that my right ear, which is usually perfectly tonal, sounded exactly like one of the screeches from Tinnitus Mix. I tried hard to decide if I was just...

    I Invented a Sound That Knocked Out My Tinnitus

    See... this comment by Christopher E. is exactly what I'm talking about. Someone who has had tinnitus for a very short time and a member of Tinnitus Talk only since Tinnitus Mix has come out, chimes in at a high a level trying to explain how this may work. Bold text, quotes, calling him Mr...

    Turmeric with Curcumin Seems to Be Helping

    4 week update. i noticed better sleep on day 2, and felt like things were slightly improving for 2 weeks. any effect the curcumin and NAC had has leveled off and no change over the past 2 weeks. with that being said, i'm certain one or both is having an impact. it hasn't eliminated the...

    I Invented a Sound That Knocked Out My Tinnitus

    Well, I'm curious enough now that I'm going to give this a try. The curcumin effect, while still positive, has leveled off. The headphones were delivered today so I'll be trying it very soon. Based purely off of his posts, I still don't think case understands why his circuit works like it...

    Second Day in a Row Waking Up to Blasting Tinnitus

    Ive noticed that mine is usually the same falling asleep as it is waking up, so when i wake up with a spike, its odd. I was able to put enough spikes together to see that if i have alcohol before bed, it affects my sleep in a way (not sure exactly how) that i almost always wake up thinking, "i...

    Turmeric with Curcumin Seems to Be Helping

    I'm new to the supplement game. This is the first I've tried. Since two Sundays ago I started taking curcumin 4g/day in the form of 1g pills. 2 pills at lunch, 2 at dinner. Also doing 1g/day of NAC. By the second morning I felt like it had a positive effect, though I'm not saying it has...

    New Member Introduction — Tinnitus Came Out of Nowhere

    Hello all. Quick version: Last December my tinnitus set in full time. It didn't really bother me until January. But since then it's been intrusive into every moment of my life. Quite often I get upset and it drains a lot of my energy, but even though on the inside I feel torn apart, outside...
