Hello, guys! It took me a few weeks to come here and introduce myself, but here we go...
My name is William, I'm 24, from Brazil, and I have T.
This is hard to say, but my tinnitus started after a really stressful month of my life.
My wife and I lost our third child (she gets pregnant, keeps the baby a few months, then we lost... we already know the problem, but there's no 100% effective treatment), and I just couldn't handle it.
I thought about dying and stop caring about life, it was pretty bad. I feel better now, but I have T as a side-effect, perhaps.
Since it started, I've been going through hell. It's not as loud as many of you describe, but it gets to the point of not letting me sleep well. The last days have been really difficult to me, I consulted a doctor, he said I have developed Ménière's disease and Labyrinthitis due the stress. I've been taking some medication, but it doesn't solve it. It's almost 2 months now, and it's still here.
The bad feelings keep coming, and I try to stay positive. But I won't deny, it's hard. A lot of things at the same time, and I have to deal with everything. Work (I'm a Software Engineer, so it involves a lot of concentration and thinking), helping my wife, keeping everything balanced...
Well, this is me, this is my story. I hope I can feel better soon (I already do, but not 100%).
Thanks in advance, and see you around!
