Today is my second year with T. Couldn't have imagined it or I would have lasted this long. We both have, but I'm hoping we becomes me .

I bought several brands of ear plugs, but the ones I found that seemed to block out the annoying frequencies while still allowing me to hear well enough to carry on conversations are called V-Moda. They don't look like conventional ear plugs, but they are still fairly hard to spot. The cost is...

Well V how are you getting along these days? Have you continued experimenting with the affirmations? My condition is ever present, but I find I am still able to function. Try to keep myself involved with stuff to help keep me somewhat distracted. Not easy, but doable. I hope you have seen...

Yep that's the place.

You are a smart Dude for being such a young Dude!

@Sailboardman, you also live in the town Clown College is located. May be heading into your town to get an application for Clown College. I call my granddaughter the female Jim Carey. When asked where she's heading for college (in one year), she says Clown College. She's a smart, funny kid...

Olt, just read your post from April 29th this year about opposite sound waves that have no affect on tinnitus because the sound is not a sound but only a perception of sound. Well I was suckered into purchasing the Neuromonics Oasis device about 10 months ago. Is it based on the same bogus...

@Cas Michel, I am also a short timer having contracted this plague June 2, 2014, a day I will never forget (like the day Kennedy was shot), but hope to put it behind me before I move on to the other side. My condition is very much like yours in that it is constant and loud and it cannot be...

awbw8, I'm not sure what format you use for your art, but you should definitely branch out to writing (if that is not your art form). You have laid out this vourney as best as it can be. Everyone on this forum should read this, it will save lives, and it will change lives. I, too, have...

Thanks for the response Sleepless, as always I continue to look for even partial solutions for the "condition". Maybe someone will come along with some knowledge and the success rate (if any) of this procedure . Get some Sleep. Sicko Micko

Does anyone know or has anyone heard of a treatment called "TRUDENTA"?? Claims it's a solution for migraines and tinnitus. Just curious. Sicko Micko

svintegrity, and LadyDi, you have both hit the mail on the head. I, too, started with a single low whistling sound at moderate level. My Audiologist suggested hearing aids which helped somewhat, but didn't completely eliminate the whistling (cost $2600.00). Starting to panic, I asked if that...

geg1992, Richard is correct with his thoughts on normal ear plugs. The V-moda are different as they seem to block out those frequencies that are most bothersome. They do not prevent whatever noises are going on in your head from being there, they just allow you to gradually work yourself back...

No TRT, just time and gradual exposure. I think some frequency loss plus inner ear infection, but who knows. You've got to put yourself in normal environments (which will seem loud to you), then grin and bare it. I did use a set of ear plugs (V-MODA Faders $15), that really seem to block the...

Geg1992, I am walking in your shoes or vise versa. Been there, done that, I have been on the extreme end of both. I suggest you first get with a doctor that has some compassion and understanding of your condition. Don't be afraid to use pharmasiticles, because they can help you. Tweek them...

Iceland that is green and Greenland that is ice. Well fellow condition carrier I am born and raised in New Orleans. Been there all my life except for periodic excursions, that is until Katrina. Now live in Katy, Texas (nice place, but not home).

RaZaH, good stuff my face hurts from smiling so hard. I would like to have seen his or her face. What part of the planet do you inhabit?

Hey Steve it's Mick. I have not as yet been able to open the files of the two audios you created for me. Still using the expensive MP3 player I bought on sale from the Neuromonics folks. Just didn't want you to think I was blowing it off, cause I'm not. I wish I could get this Neuromonics...

Yep, it seems to be helping me. You might want to read this entire thread. Lots of good technique advice. Good luck! Mick

A, yes I too listened to all really good music that was made back then, saw many of those groups live. And yes I was a part of the culture. I still listen to as much of the old stuff that I still have, lost a lot in Katrina. Music was and is a huge part of my life as it was for so many...

A, according to Silvine's suggested approach you should use the second of your examples (affirmations), it has no negative connotations. Important to keep negative out, first of all because the unconscious mind cannot process negatives, and if you use a negative on your affirmations, the...

IWLM, I was just wondering how you are doing since the beginning of the "Back to Silence " thread you started. You were having very good success at the time and I was curious as to how you were doing now. I am hoping for a good report. Humbly. Mick

IWLM, I was an MM fan also, my favorite song, "My Little Red Book". Mick

Lisa, I take Zoloft and Welburtrin, and sometimes in the early morning when my condition is at it worst, I take a half of a .5mg Valium. Sounds like a lot of medication and I've never been a pill taker( other then vitamins), but without what I'm taking I would be a mess. Your doctor should be...

You're a very lucky duck dude. Enjoy the silence.

Paul try 10mg melatonin for sleep, all natural, purchased at any drug store, not expensive, it works for me.

Short and sweet, get a CT scan to see how your sinuses are, MRI of your brain, stay a calm as you can, don't be afraid to use prescribed medications , and don't be alone if possible(just having someone there helps a lot. I hope you discover you don't have the condition.

Happy New Year Silvine! You 're a dude.

Valeri, I think those affirmations might convey the kind of response your unconscious mind might not accept. You know both IWLM and Silvine are much much more schooled in this technique. I want you to really have a clear picture, consequently I would try and touch base with Silvine, he can...

Valeri, I don't know if you looked at the post I suggested, but if you haven't this is what I use. My tinnitus is_________ Fading Harmless Disappearing Cured I use those in no...

Isabella 123, as Sweet Peach said there are very few, if any, products or devices that relieve or cure this condition. Had I found this site soon enough I could have saved $6k easily. One big chunk went to Neuromonics, which I believe is the most expensive scam (backed and promoted by...

Valerie, if you go to the thread "Back to Silence" which was started by IWLM, then exploded from his initial post, you will find very indepth explanations of the affirmation technique. Both IWLM and someone named Silvine give very good explanations of how it all works. IWLM's approach is...

Steve, thanks for responding to my inquiry. I am not really sure what it is I am looking for. I wondered after reading your posts on that thread , if I could get you a copy of my audio graph chart that maybe you could create sounds that are in my frequency loss that could be listened to that...

Valerie, Dan, Leah, Marlene, I'm no Silvine (Happy New Year Silvine), but I would suggest you all stop fixating on your condition (no matter how severe it may be), take a few deep breaths, and try to calm down just a bit for now. I really do believe in this technique, but I'm not going to put...

Yeah Mark I have one and have been using everyday since my surgeries. Since you contract bad stuff through your nose, it's a good thing to do and it's fast, easy, and effective. And good results from your surgery.

Mark, just had 2 surgeries in the last 3 months. One was in office with local anaesthetic and the next in the hospital knocked out completely. Both were for impacted and infected sinuses and my hope was that it would somehow eliminate my condition. It didn't, but it did not have any adverse...

Good Morning fellow "condition" afflicted humanoids (not too specific, and just vague enough). This concept keeps expanding, ie. "Back to Silence" started by IWLM. I think it has potential, but I tend to agree with Sean, it is not going to be a quick fix. IWLM opened up the door, and there is...

@Steve, I was looking at an older post dealing with Neuromonics and other similar devices that haven't been proven effective or have very little effect on the condition and are crazy expensive( I know how expensive because I purchased one). You had mentioned that you could duplicate what they...

Amelia, when I was a slightly younger person, this type of news story would have been hard to believe, but in today's political climate it has unfortunately become common place. What a sad event and what a sad commentary on our society which spans all oceans. Thank you for yor response. Mick

Makers Mark over ice or a well made old fashion. Yeah Boy!

Amelia, what exactly are you talking about ? I don't watch the national news to often, so I haven't heard of whatever siege your eluding to. If it is too dreadful and you'd rather not go there that's fine.

Hope is a very elusive gift to find in what appears to be a hopeless situation. Markkus, you and your creation have given so many that hope. You are saving lives (I know first hand ). Thank you ever so much. Mohammed is moving the Mountain! Happy Holidays to All!

I know there is probably little or no interest in the Korean Herbs as a partial solution to T, but I have been keeping up with my ingestion of the stuff twice a day for the last 3 weeks and I'd like to report I'M T FREE!!!! NOT!! I wish that were the case, so I could holler for everyone to buy...

Ok I'm gonna throw this out there because it works about as good as good can be for me. My doctor and I have been tweeting my meds far as long as I've had the condition (that's what all the EMT'S call it right) ( and I'm not bragging, and I wish to hell I didn't even know what the condition...

Kopesy, how many baths did you have to take to rid yourself of the plague? I've got the water running in my tub as I type. Mick

Amelia, everything in life is for a reason, and there are times (actually a lot of times ) when we can't discern the reason. I personally was pretty hollow inside. Why, because I could be isolated from everyone and everything and was very content being that way. Problem was, I have a...

Just remember things could be a lot worse. Little consolation I know, but sometimes that is the only way to be able to handle this "condition". I have had a very loud day between my ears, and it has had me gritting my teeth, but I still try a block it out as best I can . Mine is a...

Amandine you should go look at the thread, "Back to Silence". Interesting stuff, and totally free, you just use your mind. Pay particular attention to "I Who Love Music" and "Silvine's" posts.

Calin, have there been any new developments with the M-Pulse device! I notice there haven't been any current posts by you or anyone else. Mick

I just realized that all the posts concerning taking cayenne fruit powder 3 times a day were posted 2 years ago which lead me to 2 conclusions: First, I am not very observant , and Second, the cayenne turned out not to work so well.

Laperson, I try it too. Right now I'm in Phase II with Neuromonics, week 4 of Korean Herbs, trying "I who love music's" brain retraining approach (which makes to most sense), and now I 'll give the cayenne a try. Am I anxious to get better, you better believe I am, so count me in. SickMick

Amandine, take 5mg's of Valium before getting in the MRI. It takes about 25 minutes. Keep your eyes closed and stay relaxed, with the Valium you will be just fine. Don't worry about your T the MRI will not impact it at all. Mick

Really nice getting back home to N.O. and seeing friends I haven't seem in quite a while . Amandine the Korean Herbs have definitely had a positive effect. My hyperacusis has improved quite a bit. I have gone from an 8-10, down to a 3-4, which is really good. As far as the T, it on occasion...

The post was on December 7th, and titled "Back To Silence". GOOD STUFF!!!!!!

I haven't followed up on what's been the results so far from using the Korean herbs because I have't been able to get on to post for some reason, but now I again can . Thank you Markkus Mucho. Not going to post that right because I just read a post describing how to lower, even get rid of...

S. withnell The easiest way to determine if you have a brain tumor is to go to a neurologist and get an MRI of your brain. My wife thought that was a possibility in my case, so I had it done. They found my brain and it was normal, no tumor.

What a bunch of crap, and his wife isn't that beautiful.

Amandine, as I explained in a previous post I use 10mg of melatonin for a sleep aid. It works just fine for me, so I would say try more than 1 or 3mgs. Will not be able to get that other email address until I return from a road trip to visit friends from my home town. Let me know how things...
