My ENT says it's caused by hearing loss. I don't believe it though. I mean I do have hearing loss and I now wear hearing aids.
Although I believe I have undiagnosed health issues which have been left untreated and are causing the T.
I am working with natural remedies at this time such as the oil and changing my diet, and plenty of vitamins.
I have lots of sounds.. ringing, buzzing , some times a whooshing or a cricket sound ...
It's a symphony in my head!

Hi @Jane M
I'm happy to hear you're doing well with CBD oil. Could you share what brand you prefer, and how much you're taking. -- Thanks!
I had a really bad spike this past week and since I vape anyway I thought I'd pick up some CBD oil to try last night.
Got some 200mg premixed oil to vape and used it for a few hours in the evening.
It might be complete coincidence but one of my harsher tones seemed to calm down a lot after using it, it didn't make much difference to the overall spike in my tinnitus but it seemed to help me sleep a little better than I have done recently.
Worth giving a shot if you have the money, is expensive for how much you get though!
Plus the oil doesn't vape nicely and gave me a few rough hits and made me cough so beware of that.

Hey Lane,
I actually use CBD through a medical marijuana prescription. I use Spectrum Yellow oil. I had used a few other in the past although they are from the Hemp plant which isn't as strong.
I take one ML in the morning and another ML before bed

CBDS should help anxiety and inflammation thus it should help tinnitus by helping these other issues...they make a vape pen ( CBD Delux) - CBDSs with Valerian root and chamomile that really makes one sleepy the catch is Valerian Root doesn't mix with many meds and can cause very harmful issues....among them liver problems.
Whether or not CBD oil will help really depends on the cause of your tinnitus. If the cause is cellular inflammation or reactivity to mold/fungi, then CBD oil might help you.
I recently had an inflammatory/auto-immune DNA test. There are four ways genetics can affect inflammation: inflammation cellular, autophagy consideration, detoxification, and inflammation environmental.
CBD oil is one of the things recommended if you have inflammation cellular gene variants and gene variants related to mold/fungi reactivity. It's not one of the things recommended for the other inflammatory/autoimmune gene variants. It doesn't mean CBD oil won't help. It just means there are other things that will probably be more effective.
Some experts believe that high insulin levels can cause tinnitus. Autophagy gene variants can increase the risk for diabetes. So it would make sense that issues with autophagy could cause tinnitus.
There has been great advancements in the research of Autophagy in the last couple of years. It was only in 2016 that Dr. Yoshinori Ohsumi won the Nobel prize for his discoveries of mechanisms for autophagy.
I recommend seeing a functional doctor and getting tested to find out if your having inflammation and, if so, what could be causing the inflammation.

I'm new to this forum as well as a new T-sufferer. I have experimented with Cannabis CBD with no benefit at all - BUT - it seems that when I take the hemp oil CBD - I get some relieve - specifically, I don't dwell on T as much. The kind I'm taking is Charlottes Web Extra Strength - and I only take a few drops (likely 1/4 or less of a dropper). Each full dropper is 9 mg of Hemp-based CBD - so it is not much at all. Placebo effect? Maybe - but as other posters above have said - it helps with sleep and lowers anxiety which makes T worse.
I'd like to share my experience...it might be placebo effect since I hadn't smoked in a year, but...I took off for Vegas a few nights ago. Explained the issue to the budtender...he hooked me up with some Sativa strand (Pure THC) for smoking, as well as some CBD gummy-cubes for ingesting (he used a lot of words that were "right up my alley" such as "inflammation of the nerves".
I ingested 2 gummies every 2 hours or so, and smoked the Sativa flower immediately upon getting back to my hotel. I noticed an IMMEDIATE change in my tone (to the more bearable tone...from buzzing/hissing to pulsing), and just sat there and listened to my silence for like an hour. Smoked more and didn't notice my sound for the rest of the night. Same thing the next day.
The final evening in Los Angeles I bought a disposable vape-pen with a combination Sativa/Indica variety. I think the Indica is the bad one, as my T was very noticeable.
Will try again with the Massachusetts weed pretty soon...and keep you posted. I was very happy about my experiment...hope it works again in the near future.

I stumbled across this information on CBD oil:

Before You Buy
Read the lab report before purchasing any CBD-related product. Lab studies of CBD oils have found compounds in some that shouldn't be there including dangerous synthetic cannabinoids, THC (the psychoactive component of marijuana responsible for making you feel high) and heavy metals like lead. Researchers have also found a too-low and too-high concentrations of CBD in some products. The label may not give you any of this information—so it's wise to request a lab report before you buy a CBD oil product, Konieczny recommends.
"I think using manufacturers that are submitting to testing or pharmacies that are trying to carry CBD and have done some vetting may be the answer," Dr. Bhatia says.
#2. Skip CBD oil if you take the certain medications
Cannabidiol is a "potent inhibitor" of two key liver enzymes—CYP3A4 and CYP2D6—that break down many prescription and over-the-counter medications, according to a report from the District of Colombia Department of Health3. In fact, one of these enzymes, CYP3A4, metabolizes one-fourth of all drugs according to the report. "Cannabinoids do interact with some pharmaceutical drugs," she notes. "It's important to talk with your doctor or with a healthcare practitioner familiar with cannabis before using it."
By interfering with metabolism in the liver, CBD could increase blood levels of these drugs, according to the report: Macrolide antibiotics, blood pressure-lowering calcium channel blockers, the cholesterol-lowering statins atorvastatin and simvastatin, antihistamines used for allergy symptoms, anxiety-reducing benzodiazepines, cyclosporine (an immune suppressant used to prevent transplant organ rejection), erectile dysfunction drugs called PDE5 inhibitors including sildenafil, some antiretroviral drugs, antidepressants including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors and tricyclic antidepressants, beta-blockers (used by people with heart disease), pain-killing opioids including codeine and oxycodone, antipsychotic drugs such as haloperidol, and the blood thinner warfarin.

You can search marijuana threads, some people have experiences while high tinnitus gets loud (from what I've read). I take CBD oil without THC, I put drops in my tea to help me sleep. I really would like to try with THC, there's a thread where peopoe's tinnitus fades while on CBD, but others say their tinnitus goes up while on it. So I decided to buy without THC.
I have no experience with CBD or cannabis but Glenn Schweitzer has a website called rewiringtinnitus.com and a blog where he reviews different CBD oils. ATA has done a podcast with Glenn, if you are a member there, you have access. People use the oil to help with anxiety.
Sorry, can't help with cannabis.

Has anybody had their tinnitus increase permanently from VERY HIGH doses of CBD oil with some THC in it (0,2)?
My tinnitus got significantly worse during the same time period I started taking a lot of CBD for my chronic pain condition. This could be entirely coincidental of course, and yet I worry...
I haven't used any CBD for 5 days and I notice no change in my tinnitus. In fact, it has stayed at a constant level for 5 days whereas before it was silent for some days of the week. Again, could be coincidental.
I know that cannabis in general can spike tinnitus temporarily, which it also does for me. But what about permanent effects?
The only paper on the subject that often gets posted is this, and it concerns an oil with as much THC as CBD which kind of makes more a study on THC in my eyes: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4364172/
I honestly don't understand the results of this paper regarding my question about long term effects:
"To find out whether THC and CBD would have any long-lasting effects on the animals' tinnitus-like behavior, the animals were given a 2-week washout period during which the drug administration was stopped and the animals had free access to water and food. The tinnitus testing resumed after the washout period and there was only a significant group effect for 32 kHz tones (F3, 48.581 = 3.870, P = 0.015), but not BBN or 20 kHz tones. This significant group effect was due to the difference between the exposed-tinnitus-drug and sham-drug groups (P = 0.011)."

Medical science has yet to find a cure for tinnitus, an audiological and neurological condition that affects more than 50 million Americans. As a result, tinnitus sufferers are left to seek out whatever relief they can find. For some, this may mean trying cannabidiol, also known as CBD...

Hello, @erik, nice to meet you. This thread caught my eye immediately, as I have done a fair bit of research on CBD oil. A family member is using it to alleviate stress that is induced by severe arthritis. In her opinion it is a godsend. We have talked about it at great length, which led me to this site. I believe it is a very credible source for information and quality oil.

I should make it clear that the oil doesn't stop the pain, it relieves the stress and helps her to relax, therefore helping her a great deal.
Do have a look at the video on the home page, it is interesting, indeed.
