DBT, individual therapy, Ketamine, Zoloft, Wellbutrin, Cymbalta, Prozac, Latuda :/ Kind of afraid to explore any more antidepressants because they pretty much all have tinnitus listed as a side effect. I think my tinnitus is 100% noise induced but I can't help but wonder if ototoxicity from all... -

I swear if the device could even reduce my T/ eliminate these morse code tones I would be happy, I don't even need my T gone, I just need it to not be this irritating I'm sure many people would agree- Chk2.023

Omg I would live it uppp I'd literally feel like I just got cured of cancer I'm not even kidding. My mind just felt so open before T, like there were so many possibilities. I love NYC and now when I'm there I'm always paranoid about sirens and shit. One day I hope- Chk2.023

That's so tragic. Yeah, always on thin ice, I feel that. So sad to hear, that's exactly what I'm afraid of. Also vets go through a lot, you're really strong for holding out hope and not giving up yet. I mean there's some promising research going on which may bring us relief down the line, we...- Chk2.023

Good luck with your new therapist! It sounds like she recognizes your problem (which sounds very similar to mine so I definitely get it), which is a good start. I hope to one day find a therapist that gets it as well. Treatment just seems to get complicated when your issue is more multi-layered... -

YES the fact that so many veterans have it and they still do nothing about it amazes me. The worst thing about T is that you can have good moments where you're too distracted by whatever to notice but, but as soon as that's over it's there to remind u how reduced your quality of life is. I hate...- Chk2.023

I know right, when I was a child I always thought... you get sick, you get better. Now that I've grown up I've learned the hard way that you don't always get better. All you can do is have a good attitude which is extremely difficult when you don't have a naturally happy disposition. Now I'm...- Chk2.023

It truly is surreal, and the fact that there is no awareness amazes me all the more... I didn't even know T existed until I got it.- Chk2.023

Yeah I miss the optimism even during the bad times. It was always there. I feel you. I try to take comfort in the fact that there are people that live decent lives despite really bad T. And of course, Susan Short and other potential treatments in the coming decades if I make it that far:/- Chk2.023

21 F. I'm at my limit. I got tinnitus 3 years ago and my relationship with it was okay. However, 1 year ago I got a permanent spike, and multiple new tones for no clear reason, one of which sounds like morse code and makes me insane. A year later and I still can't accept it. I already had severe... -
What's the Point When Tinnitus Improving Would Make Me Happier Than Anything Else?
I've had tinnitus for 3 years as well. I'm 21 now. 10 months ago I had a spike causing louder steady tones and a tone that sounds like morse code that has been much more difficult to get used to. I also have diagnosed mental illnesses on top of it, that predate the onset. I think like you do... -
Should I Take a Job at a Plant Nursery Where I Would Be Exposed to a 70 dB Fan?
I have had tinnitus since 2020. I am going on 21 years old. I have just been offered a job at a plant nursery but there is a fan near where I'd be working the cash register that I've measured at close to 70 dB. I'd be doing 8 hour shifts a few times a week. I am deathly afraid of another...
