I Invented a Sound That Knocked Out My Tinnitus

I can't tune that sh*t out the same way I can environmental white noise like rain or the beach.
Understandable. I'm just giving it a try without harsh judgement at this time. I know there is a lot of soothing apps for tinnitus on iTunes, but unsure of any long or short term benefit with those.
 
I was thinking that - so I get rid of the tinnitus, but I have to listen to this constantly, which is actually worse than my tinnitus.

I will soldier on for a while yet.
Not everyone has to listen to Tinnitus Mix forever, many chose to because of the other benefits, sleep, anxiety, etc.

Because of this:


I could only tolerate about two seconds of this before I had to turn the player off. It's like the audio equivalent of wasabi.

Also, there's a qualify of life issue that people here aren't considering. Everybody's life is nothing but their accumulated memories. That includes their audio stream. So much of the suffering of tinnitus for me, over 25 years, is because my memory is like the mirror sequence in The Last Jedi. I have memories of memories of memories of memories of memories of hearing tinnitus. What benefit to my life is there by having to constantly expose myself to a tone that is actually as annoying or even worse than tinnitus for hours on end, pretty much indefinitely in the hopes of relief in between? Before long all I'm going to do is have memories of memories of memories of memories of the shrillest modem-like sound imaginable. I can't tune that sh*t out the same way I can environmental white noise like rain or the beach.
I get letter after letter saying quality of life is better, at first it is harsh to some people, it takes a few days, just turn it down so low you can barely hear it. This guy said the same thing @GlennS and look at his results!!!

Thank you, I have spent $3000 giving it away to help people and it's rare to get thanks from anyone except people who have got their lives back.
I wrote a while back that I would give an update but I would have preferred to wait until I was feeling very well. However, there was a very nasty comment just posted to David so I will give a short update.

I am at this moment listening to David's cd, on low volume and it is helping me to relax.

I have been using the cd for several weeks and although I am still experiencing bad days, for the first time in a couple of months the good days are becoming more frequent.

If you play the cd on low volume it is not horrible - it is distracting and I can think of
other happier thoughts.

Thank you David.

That's great @IdaP, I''m glad it's working for you as well!
 
I'm listening to Mr. Case's "North Korean Audio Torture" CD and I will just say this - despite my many comments about how it's not pleasant to listen to, he said that in his first post and it's not meant to be listened to for fun. It's not pleasant, but neither is injections into the ear, nor wearing a clip on your tongue. I'll stop making remarks about the sounds for now, because I think I've belaboured the point.

I slept better yesterday, in fact, for the second time in recent memory, I woke from my alarm, rather than waking up from the tinnitus. I don't know if I can attribute that to the Tinnitus Mix, but it certainly hasn't negatively affected my sleep. I have decided to go at least 3 weeks with this, but mainly during the day. If I think I can actually sleep with this, I will.

Thanks so much for your update, I am happy you are getting good results!! If people would try it per instructions instead of making rash judgment we could help a lot of people here. Keep it up, some take longer than others.

That's great, I think it will help you even more if you can sleep with it and keep it up for 3 weeks!!

I have no idea how you do it but I find it way easier to listen to it at night, probably because I'm asleep most of the time.
When I listen to it during daytime I get bored.
 
During the day I can listen to it while I'm working if I'm not in meetings. It's instrumental, so it doesn't have words to distract. I think the problem with me trying to sleep to this is because it changes pitch and pattern. Most of the white and pink noise things I've used for sleep are pretty constant.

I know it's hard to believe but I get reports all the time it has many benefits such as deeper, longer sleep, increased cognitive ability, clarity of mind, less anxiety, LESS pain even, I don't understand how Tinnitus Mix does that but it really does. When I first started getting letters about these other benefits I just discounted them as coincidence, but now there are so many I do believe there is something going on with the sounds and electromagnetic waves from Tinnitus Mix and the neurons that are helping the brain.

Yes, that's what drives the tinnitus away, fast change ups and short high frequency pulses, this is what interferes with the feedback part of the tinnitus structure or circuit.
 
I appreciate that.

What is most common in terms of the development of a user's success? A constant lowering of the tones?

The reason I ask is that Tinnitus Mix changes the tinnitus tones for me to an extent, but it doesn't really lower the volume as of yet.

For me the tones started to become intermittent and then the volume started to decrease after five nights... head tinnitus didn't come back in three weeks. Had a short episode again two days ago but still doing better as before the Tinnitus Mix.
 
Love to hear that. I am serious when I say I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. There are certainly many misfortunes I would, but not this.
If vengeful folk or kids in gangs knew how fucking horrid this is they wouldn't carry knives or acid they would carry air horns.
 
Mmm, yes! There's a reason why sound torture works. There's a chap on here who was assaulted and punched in the ear who is going through hell right now from the tinnitus it caused. I wonder if this absolute shitstain would do it again if he truly knew the pain he caused.

Yea, everyone is different, that's the wildest thing. The longer you have had tinnitus the longer Tinnitus Mix takes. I think it has to do with the amount of brain damage the tinnitus causes, it has to heal.
 
lol -- Nope, he was pretty upfront about that!

And that to me proves that he can't be trolling people. If he did want lots of people to try it and fail just to have a kick of fooling people, he would have given you some 'Sounds of Music' quality music/sounds to lure more members into trying it. There is a saying 'A bitter medicine is better than a sweet one'. So I guess one needs to bear with the bitterness for the cure. Lol.

Yes you are right, when we go to a doctor the shot in the arm hurts, the medicine he has us drink tastes awful, so goes Tinnitus Mix... it sounds harsh... at first.
