I wholeheartedly agree. My case is not as bad as a lot of people here, and my brain was able to adapt, not all brains do. The experience I had was enough to feel empathy for everyone having this condition to any degree, and definitely much more for those having extreme cases. I know it's pure...

Yes brother, I am, in fact, better. I'm pleasantly surprised. I didn't think at ALL I'll be able to recover... I attribute it to neuroplasticity (amongst a thousand variables we might never discover). My brain eventually lowered the amount of releasing adrenaline (due to the tinnitus sound) and...

I feel you brother. Those things were really taken from you, and from us. Eventually we arrive at an understanding. Instead of "reading in a quiet room", we must now indulge in reading but never a "quiet" room anymore. Instead of "quietly watching the world go by", we must now loudly watch the...

Haha, that'd be amazing brother. Much love your way and I deeply thank you for your consideration.

Hi brother, I'm from Paraguay, South America. Far, far away from the Northern Lands. But yeah, there might still be ways around it. We will see.

Sorry to hear about yours as well brother. I hope yours can heal in time. Or you habituate soon.

Hi brother, I'd say almost all tinnitus cases are related in some way to GABA. Taking into account that Clonazepam is a PAM of GABA receptors (meaning it makes the GABA receptors work more efficiently when they coupled to the Clonazepam), that's the reason it helps you. I take 2mg Clonazepam...

I will do when I can! That's actually interesting to be honest. Sadly, it's not legal in my country so I'd have to stick with the smoked stuff, although I'd sure give it a try if I get my hands on some.

Hi brother, Thank you very much for your response. Yes, I still continue to smoke in small quantities though I haven't gauged exactly how much. I do 4 tokes every night, but today I did them already and it's still afternoon. I've been having very busy days at work and they've been stressing...

Hi everybody, Has anybody tried Muscimol for tinnitus? I'm wondering since it's a GABA-A agonist, if it could help reduce the loudness of it, at least in small doses. Thank you and all the best.

Thank you very much brother. I appreciate your response. I don't think I'll be able to ween off of them in such a short timeline, since my sleep was basically destroyed by my cannabis withdrawal, but maybe on a longer timeline, I will. All the best to you.

Hi Oscar, I appreciate your optimistic approach. I actually can't listen to it in the shower. I think the tinnitus is loud enough to not let me sleep or rest, which in itself is a huge problem, but I also have loads of GABA issues due to my withdrawals (from cannabis and benzos), so the...

Hi @yeezysqueezy. So yesterday, I continued the taper. I tapered the Alprazolam from 0.625 mg to 0.5 mg. It was a rough night. I didn't sleep well at all. I'll see until when I can prolong this and I hope my brain can adapt and heal at every step I go. But it feels unlikely. Anyhow, I need to...

Hi Maria, how are you doing nowadays? I'm tapering off 2 mg Klonopin and 1 mg Xanax in order to hopefully turn down the volume of my tinnitus and I hope I can get it to be like your experience. I know I will have to wait some time (months or years) until my GABA-A receptors return back to...

So I've been binge eating for a week now (and possibly a couple of weeks before), and I'm feeling as suicidal as ever. Not being able to rest when I want to is surely going to kill me. I asked my wife if she'll be fine if I kill myself because of all the suffering I'm going through and she...

Brother, I completely understand you. My daughter is also at an age that she'll not remember a thing if I take the suicide route and my marriage is also being destroyed because my wife is absolutely exhausted of hearing me talk about tinnitus, how bad it is, how little rest I get, how I was...

My friend, brother, you are, unfortunately, very right. I pray our lives will pass away quickly, or dare I say, what remains of our once existing lives.

Yeah man. I'm on 2 mg of Klonopin per day, at night. I first need to wean off the 1 mg of Alprazolam, and then, go ahead and do so with the Klonopin. But the thing is, my tinnitus has ALREADY reached bad levels of loudness... But still, I must do it. Can you tell me your story of Klonopin? So...

Can you chill for a second, tatted bro? I only answered that way because he said he gives a "flying fuck" about silence and referred to my suicidal thoughts as dumb. I too have a family and I too do it for them. I asked for advice because he said he's taking benzos too and since I'm doing the...

You're right. Thank you, brother.

Hi @Jupiterman. It's 8000 Hz, unilateral (left ear), unitonal severe tinnitus. I used to hear it only in quiet spaces but now I can hear it even with nature background and most definitely with the AC turned on at night while I *try* to sleep and such.

Hi @AfroSnowman. There's no GP really in my country that understands my situation. I wouldn't want to use a drug (or drugs) until the end of my life, especially benzos. But if everything comes down to that, sadly, I will have to do it. In the long run, it truly wreaks havoc on your system and...

Hi Travis, brother. Unfortunately I had to resort to benzos after my cannabis withdrawal (which was extreme) in order to sleep. I understand where you come from, I also wished there could have been another way, and I know they are poison, but it's the ONLY thing that helps me sleep. I'm...

Thank you very much @yeezysqueezy for your response. As of now, I don't really need to take time off work because it is not as heavy as other kind of labor out there. I'm a software developer but I can pretty much manage my own time and if I could sleep, I would be able to sleep until 9AM...

I know you don't give a flying fuck about silence, but I do, and you're disrespecting what I value in life. If you go so far as to say you don't give a flying fuck about what I consider precious, then I don't give a flying fuck about you and your fucking affliction. If you want to incite...

Hi everybody, I have severe tinnitus. It's a high-pitched tone (8000 Hz) on the left ear, extremely loud. I don't have hyperacusis. Yet I can assure you, this disease has completely and utterly ruined my life. Even if you have catastrophic tinnitus, noxacusis and 20 different tones with >80 dB...

Hi everybody, my name is Ivan. I've had severe tinnitus for 9 months already after I had to quit cannabis cold turkey after 10 years of daily usage due to an extraction of 3 teeth. Believe me on this, due to the extreme nature of the withdrawal, and I know this is not the case for everyone, my...
