    Feeling Worthless and Pathetic for My Parents

    Hi Meeb. I often wish there were a pair of headphones on the market that replicates the Tinnitus noise in ones ear(a) And ask who ever it is that is unsympathetic to the condition, to wear the headphone 24/7 for a week or two, to see how long they would last. It could never be as bad, because...

    Please Help Me, I'm Desperate (Problems Started After Trying to Get a Wax Blockage Out By Myself)

    I have to disagree with Micheal about the NHS. I praise them in all other ways, except for mental health and Tinnitus. In this case one can lead to the other. Of course it may depend on where you live in the UK. One Doctor I consulted even told me he had Tinnitus, his off the record advice was...

    I would be worried more about a thump to the head, even with a head guard.

I am going through a divorce with an NPD. she a ridiculed me for having T. When we would argue, she...

    How to Get My Wife to Understand Bad Tinnitus Days

    Well I sorted that problem out. We are getting divorced. . I have replicated the sound through a KHz scale, she cringed and held her ears, she has seen me have panic attacks. But I don't want pity,( which I never got) I want support. I did not petition divorce over just this, it was symptomatic...

    Sound Pillows?

    I have two gadgets. One is a kind that cuts out the light, and has two small speakers built in to place over you ears. It has preset sounds like waves, wind, babbling brook etc. Press the button, select which sound and volume. Listen away, it turns it self off after about an hour. I also have a...

    Please Help, Very Scared, Tinnitus in Right Ear Became Worse from Sleeping on It?

    Ditto on all the above advice. I have suffered panic attacks etc, but you must learn down. I have just left a very stressful marriage, and now going through divorce procedures. So with the stress my noise has changed. When it happened or I feel my heart racing,, the adrenalin wants to make me...

    I Have a New Job (McDonald's), Worried It Might Affect Tinnitus

    Try putting an earplug in, don't poke it in all the way. I can still hear things with ear plugs pushed all the way in.

    How to Get My Wife to Understand Bad Tinnitus Days

    I had Tinnitus before keeting my wife. It was s very stressful marriage to a very cold callous person. I did explain it too her. The whole of the summer of 2014, out of the blues I developed Anxiety disorder and nearly lost my job. I could have a panic attack at any given moment, and between...

    Hi Scubadude, does the diving affect your t at all? I am doing a dive refresher course. I am half Cypriot, so I hope to dive the Zenobia one day, but I'm sh*t scared its gonna make the tinnitus worse?

    Sleeping on Your Tinnitus Ear

    I sleep on my T ear. Even before I had tinnitus I was a terrible sleeper. I'm a constant worrier, even if i don't have worries, I think there is some thing wrong, like its a lull before the storm. So T just made things worse. The first time I got it, I did not sleep for two weeks. I would do...

    Thanks for your replies. It's funny Billie, that's how I learned to over come the spikes I just lay their and said too myself. 'So what? It can't kill me' and carried on. I fish as well, and concentrating on the bite does help me take my mind off of it. I do have some melatonin I will give it...

    Make It Stop :(

    I have my iPhone under my pillow with nature sounds on it, like running water waves etc. I'm sorry you have it at such a young age. I take a tranquillisers to help me sleep. It's a helluva place to be. My wife refuses to understand it as well.

    Hi I'm new here. I've reading the threads, & I feel relived other people get panic stricken as I do(not that I'm wishing it on you) I first got Tinnitus about 9 years ago. I think I got it from motorcycle riding. Not wearing ear plugs in my crash helmet, and the constant wind rush going past my...
