    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Mainly the ones I mentioned in the first post: Dry mouth Clomipramine has solved my problems with insomnia, it usually took me more than 1 hour and lots of Melatonin to fall asleep because of tinnitus – now it happens in around 10 to 20 minutes without Melatonin. It just “knocks” me out around...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Hey, Yes. Yes. I took it because people reported that their hyperacusis improved after taking Clomipramine. I had hyperacusis for about 8-9 months when I started taking the medication. My hyperacusis was relatively mild compared to some of the severe cases here, as I could tolerate sounds to...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Hey guys, I wanted to give an update. I’m still doing great hyperacusis wise. Everything sounds “normally” loud and I have not felt the stabbing pain since 2022. I recovered by more than 90%, and it happened mainly in the first 3 months. I stopped taking Clomipramine 6 months ago and have not...

    Yes, I felt a stabbing pain when exposed to certain sounds (besides loudness hyperacusis).

    Hey, yes, it has worked for me. I stopped taking clomi in august, and it seems like my hyperacusis has not worsened since then. My plan was to wait 2 months so I'll give an update in october.

    War in Ukraine — Megathread

    I am saying that in my opinion the UN commission is one of the “best” sources we have today. Do you have a “more trustworthy” alternative? Please share it with me, I will gladly read it. I’d hate to continue to rely on this biased UN commission. But we both know you have nothing. Also I am...

    War in Ukraine — Megathread

    I don’t really understand what you are trying to argue here and on the previous pages. Are you arguing that Russian soldiers don’t commit war crimes? Probably not, because that would be quite idiotic in view of all the evidence. Or is the discussion here about whether Russia is systematically...

    Hey, so far clomipramine has had no effect on my tinnitus. Unfortunately the reactivity is still the same.

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Hey. I could only hear one tone in complete silence around bedtime when my tinnitus started. I think that in the first few years (probably about 5 years) noisy events led to tiny increases, though I wasn’t even totally sure if my tinnitus was worsening. But later I started to notice that it was...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Hey, so in my case, there's not much new to report. I’m doing great hyperacusis wise. Everything sounds normally loud and I haven’t had any pain since June. Last weekend I went to a restaurant for the first time since last year (without earplugs) - my tinnitus is spiking now, however...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Hey, it’s been going well. I´ve basically achieved all of my goals that I set back in June/July. Last goal was driving on highways without earplugs which I have been practicing for a few weeks now. My hyperacusis does not seem to cause any issues. Pretty much everything sounds “normally” loud...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Those things are not on my list yet. I haven’t been to bars/restaurants since August 2021. I could barely tolerate two people talking back in May, so I don´t want to imagine what a full bar with music would do to my ears now. I'm not ready to risk a setback yet. I try to expose my ears to...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    I hope it works for you just as well as it is currently working for me. Yes, I´d definitely argue that one should first try to heal “naturally”. But unfortunately it does not seem to work for all of us. I don’t think I would have survived multiple years with a worsening pain hyperacusis. I´ve...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Talking about muscle "relaxation". My usual workout routine starts with 15 pull-ups, and I have noticed since I´ve started taking Clomipramine that I cannot reach more than 13. On the other hand, my jogging time actually keeps improving. I started working out a few years ago because I´ve had...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Well, I´m not sure if it is the best idea to take a drug when you don´t feel comfortable with it. I can only share my experience and thoughts. I couldn’t get my hands fast enough on Clomipramine because the way I saw it, it was my last hope. I thought that my hyperacusis would progress like my...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    As I understood it, the people took Clomipramine for 6 months, a year or more, and hyperacusis did not return/increase after tapering off. If I remember correctly, there was a woman who took Clomipramine for 2 months, and her hyperacusis returned after she abruptly stopped taking the drug.

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    It seems like most people had to take Clomipramine for a few months (while very slowly increasing) until they saw improvements. I also believe that most people took the 50 mg tablets which I could not get because they are no longer made – they produce now only 75 mg sustained-release tablets so...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Isn’t the stabbing pain I mentioned pain hyperacusis/noxacusis? Like for example, the lowest volume of my phone used to cause stabbing pain. 2 weeks ago I noticed that I can use my phone without pain at the lowest volume.

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Since we are discussing other drugs, I´d like to add the following: When the user "Jermaiine82" asked for Clomipramine for the first time, the doctor decided to give him something else “that works just like Clomipramine”. The "just like Clomipramine” drug (he doesn’t mention the name) had no...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Hey @chinup, I just checked again, and I noticed I did skip a guy who gave an update after a few weeks. “l3anback” wrote on 3. November 2019: “I have been taking the medication since mid-September, it makes me quite tired, and have other side effects. But the tinnitus has changed a bit and...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    My tinnitus is still the same. The drug has not affected my tinnitus, and I have been careful not to aggravate my tinnitus with “loud” noise. I also don't expect my tinnitus to get better as it has been only getting progressively worse since it started 21 years ago. I just hope that a “reduced“...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Hey Brian Newman, I´ll definitely keep all of you updated. I hope you find something in your research because I don’t think it was a coincidence that my hyperacusis started to improve after I started taking this drug. I was also quite surprised that I could not find anything in English since...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Hey Mister Muso, Yes, they seem to work in a similar way. It has done wonders for my sleep as well. Were you able to fully recover from your hyperacusis? If so, how much time did it take?

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Hey Diego LR, I took escitalopram 7 years ago for around 2 years, it did not affect my tinnitus. So far Clomipramine has had no effect on my tinnitus. There is also no mention of a “tinnitus worsening” on the German tinnitus forum, but then again not everyone explicitly stated to have tinnitus...

    Hyperacusis Cured/Reduced by Clomipramine

    Hey, what's up guys. I have been visiting Tinnitus Talk for more than 10 years, and I decided to create an account now because it seems like I might have found something that, strangely enough, has not been discussed here yet. Summary: I found anecdotal evidence that Clomipramine cures or...
