Geo, just realize we all have gone through many stages of T and we all want to help and be helped .I have not had it as long as you but my first 3 months we're H on earth so I can relate to your stress level.It scares the H out of you,Dan gave you some great info. It is in the brain .It will get better but it might take awhile I would really try to get help with anxiety mabe meds I had to for a while .Even a 1mg per day benzo long acting like klonipin might help just plan on weening off slowly after say 4 to 6 weeks .I don't like to know that you are suffering and we all try to support each other on here.There is no shame in it .Before T and H I never touched a drug of any kind but sometimes a medical condition just calls for it.This tinnitus is most likely affecting your limbic part of your brain right now .I have weened off my benzos I took 1 mg total per day of klonipin and in the first month took a total of 10 mg in 1 mg doses of xanax still have one 1 mg left just in case have had it for 5 months.I only take melatonin sr and a host of vit and supplements.I know your are into working out and fitness so you know what is healthy and how to eat right just keep doing what you have done as far .Take care of your stress.This is important right now.Go find a dr. might have to go to a pyhc. dr. to get a benzo I hate suggesting you to get meds and I ain't a doctor ,but if you go to a dr. he can then suggest these options with you .They kinda work right away but they can be addictive but you don't have to be on them long term .They are not intended to be used long term.As I know everyone will have a say on my post I don't care I'm gonna put this out there cause I don't want to see you go through this and this I believe it will be a fast relief for you till you can get a handle on it and it settles down.I don't believe T is a auditory condition alone it is a somatic brain nerves rewiring mixed with the auditory nervous system .It is hypersensitive parts of the brain going on and it won't stop untill the brain fixes what ever is causing the hyper-activity.WE all have the same thing we all just respond to it differently cause no two brains are alike .So Geo please get something that will help you now .Like I told you it will get better and it will but mabe meds ,time and a possitive mind will get you back to your life .I hesitate to recommend meds like these but it helped me when I was going crazy with my T& H and it has helped many on here .And some are against it.I know .
I want you to get through this
and you will .Mike K
