I Have Tinnitus

Anyone else?

I do. I don't notice it much anymore unless it gets really quiet, but even then I've learned to deal with it.

Ok. I’ve had mine for about 3.5 years. It’s been bad but I’ve learned to deal with it. But in the past few weeks it seems to have gotten worse. Not massively so, but enough for me to notice it during the day as opposed to just at night or times of silence. Now I hear it over the TV etc ☹️

Ouch. Have you been to an ear doctor, or whatever they're called?

@FaeLuna yes a specialist a couple of years ago but he said nothing can be done 🙁

How long did you have it and how bad was it? @NiftyWhite

that’s a complicated question. i noticed it on june 6 last year and it was bearable again by mid july. severity varied from “i can do this” to “omg i’m gonna end my life if this stays forever” @sleepyhead i didn’t just hear ringing but sometimes several tones at once, some of them oscillating, some high, some low, - i wasn’t even sure what were real actual sounds in the house and what was in my head.

can i help you in some way? you can ask me just about anything - ive researched the shit out of it
What did you say about a tin cup?

Oh..yeah..guess I do.

A slight bit. I mostly notice it when there is silence.
