Will There Be a Cure Within the Next 20 Years, What Do You Really Think?

Will There Be a Cure for Tinnitus in the Next 20 Years?

  • Yes

  • No


Results are only viewable after voting.
Retigabine is just shot gunning the problem with lots of side effects,wouldn't really call it an"effective"treatment.

This is why I said we need it with less side effects. The team behind RTG now working on it. They have already announced that they now found two formula more efficient than RTG with less side effects.

@Poyraz
Did you try retigabine ?
Since I got my T from glutamate storm, my experimental study on my T will be like this:

Korean Red Ginseng
Flupirtine
Memantine
And Retigabine

*I may add some new supplements to the list. I'm planning to create a blog. I have never pictured myself as a lab rat. The agony of T...
 
what is your result with RTG ?
I'm sorry I could not make myself clear. I have not tried RTG yet. It will be my last chance till SF0034 and the other drug will be out. I'll write them all in my blog.
 
@Poyraz yes and of course we all hope they follow through on that,but as of yet it's still just a bunch of chemicals in a lab that may or may not come to fruition.But we have to remain optimistic and hopeful but also realistic too and there's a thin line between the two.Also above you state"almost everyone had a reduction using Regitabine"and also"it works on all types of tinnitus"judging by what you read in the related thread,but that's somewhat of an exaggerated version of the reality,some had a reduction and a lot didn't and of course some opted out due to the extreme side effects so to say it works on all types of tinnitus simply isn't true,not really a great cause for hope is it?Its something but of course a lot report a reduction using Benzos,stress management,meditation,yoga,excercise,CST etc etc so what makes you so optimistic about this?It hasn't really,to me at least,proven to be a huge jump in reduction compared to other alternative treatments out there,like everything it works for some and not for others.

It makes me so optimistic because if I do not rise my hopes I'm 100% sure that I'll commit suicide. I have been there and I don't want to do something will make my loved ones down. I'm still in severe depression and realism takes me the egde of ending my life. We are spending our lives in this site. This is not what life is supposed to be. I really want to take it back. But of course you are also right what you are saying.

my workmate suffer from tinnitus since 35 years. he said ,,they say every year there will be a cure in 5 years''

And I remember some people who are suffering from T more than 20 years in this forum said there was nothing about T 10 years ago. I do believe in science but I'm also really pissed off they never paid attention to T even 10 years ago. There was even no Tinnitus Talk 10 years ago, rigt? Something is changing and I do believe we will see some treatments in 5 years.

How long do you have T Poyraz?And also(I respect that this is an extremely personal question so feel free to completely ignore it)did you have any mental health issues prior to this?Also describe your T,how loud etc.
There's a reason I'm asking you these questions.

i would say its risky...
but i wont stop you.
my workmate suffer from tinnitus since 35 years. he said ,,they say every year there will be a cure in 5 years''

yes, but science was not that big and advance 35 years ago
 
About the original question, i think a cure is possible in 1 year, or 5 years- 10 years or more.
Everything is possible, nothing new under the sun.
likely? i dont know.
but possible, yes its.

You can ask anything mate, do not worry.
I have been dealing with GAD and chronic insomnia for the last 6 years. I have never had an easy life. Family issues, financial stiuations... But nothing ever made me so depressed like T did. It has all but destroyed it. I needed to quit my school. That was my last chance in life. I'm 24 and I have had T for 4 months now. I can hear sirens, tea kettles, electrical storm and buzzing in my head. It is really loud for me but I can not hear it when I'm outside. I can rate it 8-9/10. When I'm having a spike it is like 10/10. It makes my anxiety really really bad. I never had depression before it.
 

the sun ist hot because you are gay

Wow. You are really something. Two days ago you posted some racist comments to me and now you are disrespectful to another member. I hope you are not more than 15 years old or I will feel so sorry for you.

do you understand "humor" ?

and the thing with "racist" was just an opinion that 95% of austrians/germans have
 
i think there is a lot of
disappointment & negativity around this subject and i can understand and agree.
this is like when we are waiting for a christmas present, every day seems like a month, and a month like a year.
all im saying (and im no sugar coating) a cure, treatment or whatever IS POSSIBLE.
just like me or any of you dying tomorrow in a car crash, its possible as fuck haha.
likely?? not quite sure, but EVERYTHING is possible.
maybe one of the posters in here try with another meds and it works, maybe otonomy works, other drugs, idk
everything is possible, one thing is for sure...nothing in this world/life is constant, nothing remains motionless, everything is about movent, and things are moving.

Your T isn't really loud 10/10 if you can't hear it outside and it can be masked. Instead of wanting get high and take dangerous drugs like retigabine, why not just go outside for relief?

Agreed, I have been rating my T for the trials I'm in and although I can most often hear it everywhere but the shower I haven't rated it above 8/10. I guess it doesn't matter since it's subjective, but in my mind, 10/10 means it can't get any worse, and I know for sure that although I can perceive it most places it could get a lot worse.

What about if one has school? Or is he going to sleep in the street?
 
I might settle for knowing why I have it. If they can't even figure that out, how can they get rid of it?

I have decided that mine is going to go away. Maybe it will decide to listen and take a hike.

I don't know about school, I was only talking about an alternative to retigabine to find relief, I don't think you wany to take retigabine everyday at school anyway! I can't see that as being a option.
