Update: Yesterday, I went to a longtime friend's birthday party. I was a bit worried about the loud music and other loud noises. I didn't have any protection either. I didn't hear my tinnitus for the whole night. When I came back home, my tinnitus wasn't worse. It hadn't spiked or flared. So...

@Freerunner, thank you! The doctor used a little vacuum to remove the impacted earwax. It didn't cause any problems, it was fine after. I am actually quite unsure of how I got my tinnitus. I thought it was the earbud but, I am not so sure. I saw the ENT doctor who didn't find anything wrong...

@Freerunner, hi! I'm doing a little better, my tinnitus is lower and I can sleep a little better too. I am dealing with other problems but they don't concern my ears. But thankfully, the tinnitus has reduced. Thanks for asking!

Update: I got a call from the ENT doctor who told me that everything is fine when it comes to my ears. Now I didn't get tested or anything but I think he would've had there been any problems. I truly think that stress/clenching my teeth is the issue. I will see the dentist on the 19th of October...

Hello, I come back to this thread. I have been asking myself a lot of questions about the cause of my tinnitus. I thought it was my left earbud but my brother who tried the earbuds didn't hear any static. He thinks it amplified the sound of the earwax buildup. The ENT doctor that I saw removed...

My tinnitus is still here, although a bit more quiet, but it bothers me when I sleep. I have seen many threads which seem to link their tinnitus with TMJ or jaw problems. For two weeks, I have been clenching my jaw unconsciously. I'm doing it less, but my teeth hurt. I wonder if my sudden...

Oh we've been having it for the same amount of time. It is the same for me. It is fine during the day but its at night/when it's quiet that it drives me crazy. But if I can ignore it during the day, I can do it during the night. I just have to practice habituation. But I will follow everyone's...

Thank you everyone for the advice. I will definitely keep my sleep schedule and anxiety in check and try to relax more. And if I have a hard time with sleep, I'll try sleeping pills. I hope all of us get through this and that with time, the tinnitus will be gone for all of us. I will do my...

I focus too much on it too, but unfortunately I feel tired all day. For how long have you had tinnitus and how do you manage it?

Yes, I will try to go back to my hobbies, I haven't read in a while because I keep focusing on the sound. I will try my hardest to ignore it and focus on something else during the night. I've had the bad habit of panicking for anything small all my life, it is something that I need to work on. I...

I only hear it when it's really quiet. Whenever I am alone in my room, I hear it quite clearly. I listen to relaxing sounds that mask the noise during the night, but falling asleep is always a chore. Does it suddenly spike a lot during the night for you too? That is what happened last night...

No replies? Please someone answer me, I really need some advice to manage this.

Hi, I am new here, I need help. My tinnitus started 2 weeks ago and my life is in a downward spiral. I cannot sleep (it is 4 am as I am currently typing). This thing has caused me so much stress that I became sick. I have seen many doctors. One told me that I had earwax buildup in both ears. I...
