Hubbard was great for me. I'd recommend him to anyone. As far as tinnitus remedies, its truly impossible to know what is working, if anything. Habituation is very real for the great majority of people. So if you do anything, it might work. Stick your finger in your nose every day and drink beet juice, and you habituate to tinnitus. Swing a turtle over your head every day, and habituate to tinnitus. It makes it very hard to run any kind of a double-blind, placebo study for many things, since many people simply improve, because they improved. Everything worked, and nothing worked. Do TRT and CBT work? People swear by them. But how do you run a placebo controlled test? You know if you're receiving TRT or CBT, so its impossible to do. But that doesn't mean that there isn't evidence that these things work. (I'm really not trying to sound cynical about TRT or CBT here. I'm a believer.) These methods are generally used by people who've suffered for some time, and struggled to habituate. And they have impressive statistics for working. If you're struggling down the line, I'd suggest CBT without reservation. 4 months in, and I took off like a rocket, improving quickly. I even stopped masking to sleep this week. So far, so good.
Good luck,
Eric
Sounds good Eric. Congrats.
I haven't tried swinging the turtle over my head but will try that too..
