    Can Tinnitus Just Fade Away?

    For some it does for some it don't but i believe that many people brains just ignore the noise. I know it depends on how loud and intense the T may be...but once you remove anxiety from the mix and it is just T, for me the noise is reduced and even forgotten at times. I went about two years not...

    Look at What You Can Do, Not What You Can't

    The one thing I learned about tinnitus it is unpredictable. In the end it always come to the point of acceptance. Keeping positive is key. I wish you the best. :)

    Loud Tone for a Few Seconds — Fleeting / Transient Spontaneous Tinnitus

    I notice i was having fleeting T when I was really worried about it. You might feel tense or anxious. Try some relaxation methods, I highly doubt it will become constant. You will be fine :)

    Reaching Out

    Telis have you ever tried a Hearing aid? if you are experiencing hearing loss and cannot hear properly the hearing aid helps to ease the noise a bit because it amplifies the other noises. telis i have to tell you this. you have to stop allowing T control your life. You gave T too much power. You...

    Ear Hissing, Ringing Just Started

    It might not have been any of the above. Tinnitus starts in people who have had nothing happen to their ears. Instead of worrying about what you did wrong, which was nothing, you can look for ways to manage it. T is very unpredictable and no one knows the cost of it. People go to concerts all...

    Problem With the Idea That in Silence Everyone Will Start to Experience Tinnitus?

    Rich hope is a waste of time. Get on with your life. You hype for no reason. No matter how much you run on with ppl and facts you will still hear your T for the rest of your life. This thread is for support not false hope. You just mad cause the Dr. Did not say what you wanted to hear. Thats...

    What exactly is considered a safe noise level?

    Hey had to give you a hug. But i got tinnitus from ear bud headphones so i stop using it on the whole. I suggest if u want to mask before you go to sleep play the masker out loud. Headphones are in my book off limits. But if you want to use headphones the best ones to use is the type that lays...

    Thanks.

Good luck btw it...

    Is There More to It Than "Just" a Sound?

    for the majority of people it is "just" a sound. A slight whisper at night you can easily not hear by turning on a fan. But for others it is extremely loud and it even pulsates. It is "just" a sound but that sound differs in pitch and intensity. That's where tinnitus becomes an issue. When it...

    On the Road to Habituation: Good and Bad Days?

    I am coping pretty good so far. I had other personal struggles in the past that i found to be harder than T that's probably why I am habituating quicker to it. But when i am not busy i find T the most difficult to deal with it. Not at nights when i am tired but when I am home doing nothing it...

    Static Noise in Head

    Hey guys. Recently, my tinnitus has been less annoying. I don't even hear it sometimes. But for some reason, today, when I was suddenly awoken by someone, the static tinnitus noise was so loud and it sounded like it was in my head rather than in my ears. It has slightly calmed down now. Has...
