Afraid of Ear Damage

[Michael Leigh]

Think of Tinnitus as an angry child if you pay attention to it , it will continue to cause problems . Ignore it and it does actually improve to the point you will go "wow I didn't even realise u was there )

Indeed you have a point Tommi but unfortunately easier said than done in the early stages of tinnitus as you know.

Hi Michael,

Absolutely, I do know it's not easy for newcomers, I remember when mine first happened.. it can be challenging and frightening.

However over the years it has come on in different forms (mostly as a hiss) I've learnt to be more relaxed about it .

I'm sure the same will be for many other newcomers in time.

If I'm having a spike I always go back to basics and read the helpful BTA documents : https://www.tinnitus.org.uk/Pages/FAQs/Category/what-can-i-do
