I think so yes, i guess it’s hard to tell if it’s lower or you perceive it as lower when it doesn’t bother you as much. I guess it doesn’t really matter though as long as it is better!

Also regarding hypercausis I would at first over wear ear plugs or I would use my over the ear head phones as protection. But this only increases your sensitivity to noise. Being around everyday level noise I think is important in recovery. And the knowledge that this level of noise is not...

I don’t think it’s as loud anymore no, I had a few different sounds going on when it first started. I do think it has calmed down now and I mostly only hear the one noise, sometimes I notice an old sound has come back, but I know it will disappear again. So I don’t worry about it.

In the beginning yes, I took a vitamin b supplement among a whole lot of other things, that I had read about on this forum or similar. But I can’t say that any of them made much of a noticeable difference. I was desperate to find something that helped and would have tried pretty much anything...

Hi, yes my hyperacusis went away. It took time, but I do not struggle at all with day to day noise anymore. I used to struggle with the tv, music the noise from roads, the washing machine etc etc. But now that’s all fine. I pushed myself more as time went on, I can now happily be in a noisy...

Hi everyone, I haven’t visited this forum for years because everything has been fine with the ears. Bit of a back story. I got tinnitus 6 years ago when I was 22, it came on after a stressful period of time, don’t know if the two were related. I suffered pretty bad hyperacusis, I had to listen...

Thank you, it took me over 6 months to brave going out again, but I feel a lot better for it :) I will get the app and hopefully it will make me feel a bit better about it. I'm thinking it can't be any louder than a cinema??

(Sorry I wasn't sure where to section this, so feel free to move it!) My friend has invited me to go to the theatre tonight, I know the tickets are fairly near the back, so I'm slightly concerned that there will be speakers right behind me, and how loud it is going to be. I have been out...

Hi Karl, on the right hand side of each item theres a little drop down menu which say what db they go to, each one seems to have three settings, 50db, 60db or 70bd however one I saw went up to 95! I looked at the Tranquil make as well which start at 0db, are they the ones you have? I would...

Thanks Erik is that the Audimed ones? I'm looking at them now. The only issue I can see with them is the lowest they all go down to is 50 decibels, which seems quite loud to me? I only really want it very quietly in the background.

*Thanks for the info!

Thanks Karen. I cant manipulate it by touching anywhere on my face, but I have found like the author mentions if I push my jaw out a different sound appears, also when I yawn or cletch my teeth the noise becomes louder and a solid note (normally it flikers, thats the best way I can describe it!)...

How do you know if your T is somatic?

ok thank you, I think I may give it a go :)

Has anyone bought their own in ear/ outer ear white noise generators? I was thinking about getting some and attempting my own at home, TRT. Just wondering if anyone else has given this a go? Or what noise generators are best?

I think I may give them both a go, I have found a place not too far from me that does both acupuncture and has a chiropractor. I may email them to see if they have had any experience in dealing with someone with tinnitus. Did you mention the tinnitus to your chiropractor? I want to give them a...

hey erik, if you don't mind me asking, what else have you been doing? Also did you have back problems? I don't think I do so am a little apprehensive about seeing a chiropractor and them wondering why I'm even there..

Sorry if there is a thread about this already, I couldn't find it. I was just wondering if anyone here has tried acupunture or seen a chiropractor?

I don't really have much to add to this, just that it gave me some hope hearing that people are doing better :). Mine does seem to get quieter at times now, so hoping that's a good sign, I'm also feeling better in myself, not 100% but definatly better than before, so we all seem to be heading in...

Hi I'm also wondering if anyone has had a go at this? I might try it out, but is it better to to use something like this, where you listen to the tone of your tinnitus or is it better to not listen to it (notched music) It seems a bit conflicting? Or I might be getting confused.

Hi everyone, my ringing was very quiet from Monday to Wednesday.. and now its back to how it was. I was feeling so hopeful that it may be on it's way out, guess I shouldn't get my hopes up too soon, it's just it's been the first time it's changed for that amount of time since it started 3 months...

Thanks Erik I did mean to let you know I have ordered some 5HTP, I will see how I get on with that and if I still feel like I need some extra help might get something stronger from the docs. Did it do the same for you as prescribed medicine? Thanks for the hopeful message, I do hope it will get...

Thanks DezDog I find your replys really helpful and they give me a that bit of hope that I very much need at the moment! I think I will go to the doctors. My brother takes meds for his anxiety and has suffered from panic attacks and my mums been on antidepressans for years ..so I guess I'm...

Thanks everone, I managed to keep it together today, but now I'm sat here crying again. I feel like my 3 relationship is about to fall apart and theres nothing I can do about it, like theres nothing I can do about this tinnitus :(. I was meant to be living with him now and instead everything...

I'm considering going to the gp for anti depressants/ anxiety drugs, but I'm worried about them being addictive and coming off of them. Any advice would be good.

I had a really good night with it last night. The loud high pitch ringing I hear in my right ear wasn't there, the constant hissing underneath that was though. I turned my fan off to sleep for the first time in two months, and I really thought it might be getting better. However as soon as I...

Click, I have sent you a message :)

I'm in to week five already so getting pretty desperate. If ANYONE knows somewhere in the UK I can go to get this done (Iv'e done a lot of searching and nothing promising yet). Please ket me know.

Do you know how long he had, had the tinnitus for?

I'm also going to try your hair dryer trick out in a minute :)

I know this was posted a while ago, but I just found out the hotel I am going to tomorrow for three days has a far infrared sauna.. guess I will be spending a lot of time in there then!

Has anyone seen this site before? Or had any experience with laser therapy? http://www.konftec.com/html/ko_product_tinnitus.htm

Hi everyone I have had tinnitus for 5 weeks now and it's really starting to get to me. Has anybody had any success with the HBO. I'm thinking of giving it ago if I can find somewhere to go to. If anyone in the UK can help me with this, would be much appreciated!

Hi Joe, really hoping you can help me. I have had T for around 5 weeks, I read that you found somewhere in the UK that uses HBOT. Can you let me know where you went to recieve the treatment? How long did it take for you to get an appointment ect? Any help would me much appreiated. I do hope...
