I have the same thing, and it might have been triggered by anxiety, acoustic trauma (shockingly loud fire truck siren), and being in relative quiet most of the time during the quarantine, especially working from home compared to a pretty lively office. A comfortable music listening volume for...

Because of insomniac neighbors who stomp around multiple times overnight, the only way to guarantee I won't be woken up by sounds is to wear earplugs to sleep. It seems like the main thing to watch out for is impacted earwax. Can this be mitigated with more frequent earwax removals, or perhaps...

Has anyone tried this while they've been having weird fluctuations and new tones? The idea behind this seems sound and it's similar to what my therapist and audiologist are suggesting, but it's really hard to not monitor the tinnitus itself when you keep getting new tones (I've had a few in the...

So stressing over tinnitus itself seems to spike my tinnitus. And one time I was close to a panic attack and got a new tinnitus tone that took a few hours to go away. But other than that, it doesn't seem to have much impact - in fact, being stressed about something else usually makes me pay...

Mine goes off whenever it's windy outside!

My apartment has in-wall air conditioners and they are driving me crazy! They are about 58 dB loud. Thinking of moving to a place with central air or maybe a place without one and just use window ACs, as I don't recall window ACs ever being this loud. My tinnitus does not spike in reaction to...

I also did a audiogram of my bathroom fan and there is a tiny spike at the high frequencies so maybe I'm just very sensitive to that? My hearing test shows almost no hearing loss at high frequencies while I do have a little (but "normal") hearing loss at medium frequency. Then I tried isolating...

Thanks! I did have a fire truck go by me about a few weeks ago which may have preceded hearing the high pitched sound under my fan, though I'm not sure because I didn't pay much attention to the fan until a few days ago. So I can hear the sound in a recording I made of my fan. Here is the...

Thanks, it's strange that this is happening like 15 years into tinnitus. A few observations because this has really been bothering me. I would really appreciate any advice or reassurance because I think this is mostly anxiety but I also can't find much info about this online. Under the bathroom...

I have something like this too but it was strangely accompanied by something like a reduction in my regular tinnitus. I mostly hear an extra tinnitus tone when standing directly under my bathroom fan and maybe once or twice with running water. Beach white noise sounds make me hear a siren...

Hi all, I've had tinnitus for a long time and was mostly habituated except at night, though it has bothered me more during quarantine (not sure if it got any louder though). I have been falling asleep to A/C, fan noises, and/or fake rain noises (with a sleep timer) to help mask my tinnitus for...
