    3 months in. We got hissing, shrieks, long lasting pure tones, static, wind, rattling like a snake. It’s all just chaos and all the sounds take turns every few seconds / minutes. Never the same. Hard to get used to but I’m getting better at not reacting/ignoring. Volume wise it’s hard to tell...

    Thanks for your insight and thoughts. My tinnitus is very chaotic and drives me nuts, but all I have is hope that it will someday fade or stop.

    Tinnitus Caused by 4 Weeks on Wellbutrin

    @artlite, I’m so sorry, man. :/ Is it any quieter at all? Or have you at least started to ignore it a little? The way I see it, most Wellbutrin-induced tinnitus cases who improve tend to do so within 6 to 12 months. So don’t give up hope yet. ❤️‍🩹

    Week 9. I’m pretty much tired of caring, but I still do. I have so many different sounds. They come and go and change ears/head. I have a static, an old car idling, a squeak, a hiss, an almost beeping sound, a saw sound cutting through a tree or an old porch swing, and a high pitch EEE. I’m...

    Tinnitus Caused by 4 Weeks on Wellbutrin

    I was wondering who I should inform about this. My new ENT said, “Yes, Wellbutrin could cause it.” I’m not sure if he reported it, though. On the other hand, my regular doctor was absolutely certain it wasn’t the Wellbutrin and said, “You have hearing loss.” So, I doubt he reported it either.

    Tinnitus Caused by 4 Weeks on Wellbutrin

    Wow, we literally have the same symptoms, age, and timeline. This is insane! There are far too many of us experiencing this recently for it to just be dismissed. There has to be something we can do.

    Yes. I will never forget that first week. I lost all sleep, 5 lbs, and could not stop shaking and crying. This whole thing has been very traumatic. I hope you heal too. I hope we all do.

    Officially two months with Tina. She’s unpredictable. She’s quiet in the morning, all kinds of sounds In both ears that change like the wind. She ramps up a little around 2pm and bothers me for the rest of the afternoon. She keeps me guessing. I can’t even describe the sound in my left ear rn...

    Week 7. We got static and an occasional hiss or EE that fluctuate in my left ear. Lower volume than it has been for a while. But still annoying. Right ear is wind. It’s obnoxious. How did we go from fire alarm in my head to faint jingle bells in my right ear to this!? Doing all the things to...

    Wind and static today. So weird. Occasional pings an Eeeeees. had a fairly quiet day other than the gym and kids wrestling practice yesterday and didn't mask last night, took 50mg of hydroxyzine to sleep and got a lot of sleep. Been taking ginkgo and iron again. Lots of variables. Staying positive.

    Are you the same @MaximBrutii on Reddit? That posted about hydroxyzine? I just took my first pill and am freaking out, since I just got this mess from Wellbutrin in November, I've been pretty much an insomniac this week so… any advice or words of encouragement to ease my brain?

    Yesterday was such a good and quiet day. I worked out and walked the dog and cleaned the house.. so why was I awake ALL night? T is louder today. Took a Benadryl that didn’t work last night so don’t know if it’s from that or no sleep.

    Had lots of trouble sleeping last night. Both ears were making noises, idk if it was louder than normal or just more bothersome. Had to take melatonin and a Benadryl to sleep around 1:30 am. So tired this am. Merry Christmas Eve.

    Still having headaches. I think my T switches sides depending on how I lay my head at night? Idk. Wake up to a headache every morning. Yesterday was a relatively normal T day, mostly in my right ear. This morning the left is hissing more. Praying it stays quiet and doesn't ruin Christmas break...

    Last night was one of the worst. The craziest noises to date. Like a firework show of tinnitus in my ears. Today has been pretty normal. Hoping and praying it stays this way or better yet gets better and goes away soon.

    @Thomas_83 thank you so much for responding. My ent said he has high hopes it will fade away. Not sure if he was just trying to make me feel better. It’s just hard when I have good days and then the next day it’s so loud again! Or it changes! I think it’s all the changing that is making me...

    Tinnitus Caused by 4 Weeks on Wellbutrin

    Yesterday was a good day. So quiet. Today it has been swapping ears, changing sounds and both ears have had a minute or two of the loudest T yet. Like a flash bang went off. Had to leave the room to get away from my kids so I could break down until it stopped. So scary. I hate this. Plus my...

    Wellbutrin-Induced Tinnitus Success Story — Dramatic Improvement

    I got tinnitus around thanksgiving from Wellbutrin after being on it for 4 weeks. It's been about 3-4 weeks and I'm so upset. It's so squeaky and hissing, not even a constant sound I can mask. How is everyone now? Mine changed from a fire alarm to inconsistent dog whistle in my right ear and...
