Hello! I have been taking Mirtazapine for over nine months now. I went up to 40 mg per day. I believe it has not affected my tinnitus in any unpleasant way. In fact, I actually think it may have helped make it a bit less intrusive. However, it is hard to tell because I have been doing so many...

Hello @silvia, May I ask if you are still taking Yokukansan, and if you have noticed any progress? Thanks :)

Are you still taking YKS? Have you noticed any effects? Thanks!

Hello, I hope you are doing well. How is it going with the supplement on your side? Thanks!

I just ordered mine. Will you report back here on how it’s going for you and share any instructions on how to use it? Thanks!

Hello @Mathilda, Thanks for sharing your experience here. I personally quit after the first cycle. My impression was that I experienced the simulation during the first sessions for the same reasons you described. I had the same sensations as you. I saw some improvement at the end of the first...

Hello, I’ve been struggling with reactive tinnitus for a year now. At first, I listened to all kinds of so-called therapeutic sounds, including white, pink, and red noise. My tinnitus gradually worsened, becoming louder and more intrusive, with new sounds appearing. Eventually, I did the...

Your story sounds so similar to mine. I have lived with mild tinnitus for around 20 years, listening to an hour of music every day without ever experiencing a spike. But then, an ear infection and an inappropriate ENT procedure caused a long-lasting worsening. Since that moment, my tinnitus has...

I will, yes :) Are you considering it, too? How has your condition progressed since your study in Zurich?

Hello @Wassim, I read that you are taking Mirtazapine, which is also the case for me. Would you mind if I asked you some questions about your experience with it so far? I’ve been taking it since August of last year, mostly for anxiety related to my bothersome tinnitus. Thanks a lot! 😊

Hello @Mathilda, Sorry for my very late reply. I had to take a break for several weeks, but I’ll start again in March. Kindly, :)

And it doesn't help you sleep anymore?

Hello everyone, I just wanted to share my experience with Mirtazapine. I've been taking it since August 2024. I started with a very low dose of 7.5 mg and gradually increased to my current dose of 37 mg. It hasn't affected my tinnitus in any way. I'm happy to share more details about my...

I can feel your pain, and I'm very sorry for what you're going through. I'm also a tinnitus sufferer and have been taking Mirtazapine for over six months. It hasn't affected my tinnitus in any way, but it has helped with sleep, anxiety, and depression. May I ask how long you've been taking it...

Hello everyone, Wishing you all the best for this new year! :) I often use earplugs at work, as I frequently have to make long phone calls. For this, I rely on noise-canceling headphones. However, when I use both earplugs and noise-canceling headphones, my voice resonates quite a lot in my own...

Hello 👋 Before I write more, I want to mention that English is not my native language, so please excuse any mistakes I might make. I did a quick search through previous threads and found very few posts about sexual life, which surprises me! Since my current tinnitus began last February, I...

Hello Ernesto, Thanks for your posts. I'm about to start Neurofeedback. May I ask which kind of side effects did you experience? Thanks for your answers :) Kindly, Arnaud

There are reasons I can openly share here and other reasons, primarily related to my health condition, that I discussed directly with the research team. I believe we should avoid making quick judgments about people’s decisions. That being said, I understand your point and mostly agree with it.

I'm not sure I get your point 100%. I made an assumption. I can be right, I can be wrong. Of course, I haven't been told anything by the research team. So, I don't see how I'm going against any integrity standards here. Kindly.

Hello @Mathilda, I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t experience any improvement. I won’t report here again, as I’ve decided not to participate in the second cycle. I live very far from Zurich, and I’m quite certain that I received the actual treatment during the first cycle. By the way, have...

Hello @Mathilda, No sounds were used, or at least none that I could consciously perceive (this is what they told me when I asked about it). What kind of sounds did you experience? Could I ask you to share your experience with the second phase to see if there have been any changes? Thanks! 😊

Hello, @Mathilda! I’m doing okay overall, thank you! I hope you’re well too. It’s a bit difficult to put the situation into words. In short, my tinnitus tones are still there and still bothersome, but maybe about 10% softer. The sound itself has changed slightly in character, but it’s...

Hello Mathilda, Thank you for your thorough feedback! :) I’m starting today, and I will report back here at the end of the first cycle. Have you noticed any other side effects not related to tinnitus? Thanks!

Hello! I hope you are well? Are you done with your first cycle? How did it go? :)

Great! The sooner, the better, as far as I'm concerned. @HighFreq hasn't been online since 24.09. It's a pity we can't hear from him.

Thanks for answering me. :) I'm glad you haven't experienced any worsening! I wish you the best for the rest of the treatment. Kindly, Arnaud

Hello @Mathilda, I hope you are doing well! May I ask you how it has been going so far with the treatment? Thanks!

Hello Mathilda, Thank you for your feedback. Did you receive any additional information from the UZ team? Also, if you don’t mind, could you keep me/us updated on how things progress for you in the coming days and weeks? Thank you very much!

Hello Mathilda! I’m supposed to start the sessions by October 21st. When will you start, and what have you decided? Hi! I haven’t started yet; I’m supposed to begin by October 21st. I feel very concerned reading your messages. How are you feeling now? Has your condition improved? Thanks for...

Actually, this study is starting this fall in Zurich, Switzerland, and I'll be part of it. They don't require you to be fluent in German as long as your English is good enough.

What is exactly the "standard of care"? Thanks!

Thanks a lot for your insights! In Switzerland, TRT is not widely spread, and it's hard to find well-trained audiologists. Therefore, I've been reading several books about TRT, and I'm considering purchasing white noise generators. As my primary concern is not to worsen my situation, I've...

Hello! I'm interested in Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT), so I recently tried listening to white noise through my phone's headphones for a couple of hours at a very low volume. Each time, it increased my tinnitus volume and changed how it sounded for about 24 hours. Yesterday, I tried...

Hello Jan! You mentionned having a German ENT Doctor, how did you pick him? Thanks
