tinnitus

Could this be SSNL or just congestion/ earwax build and my tinnitus is distressingly loud. Monday I woke up with some congestion and I noticed my right ear felt blocked and my hearing wasn't as good as it normally is. I also noticed my tinnitus is alot louder in that ear as well. I also had a...

I have some questions abouy tinnitus as TMS. If tinnitus is tms, then why do so many people with hearing loss get tms? Is tinnitus as a result of sound incident still tms? Same questions with hyperacusis. Thanks

Have posted before so will skip the basics because the side business doesnt matter. I want to know how you would call my symptoms. Most of the time when i read about tms its about physical pain, usually from repressed emotions. I've always repressed everything and have had a lot of somatic...

Dear reader, I'm a 19 yo old. I have been suffering from hyperacusis for roughly a year and a half. It happened after a period of chronic stress, when someone blew an airhorn into my ear. It got better at first and i could go on vacation again. Some acoustic shocks and a hospital visit later, i...

From the Vox podcast series Unexplainable: "How the brain builds your world of sound: The Sound Barrier is a four-episode series where we explore the limits of hearing and the ways we can break through." Each episode is only 30 to 40 minutes long, and I recommend them. Spoiler alert, one of...

38M- About 4 weeks ago I came down with a sinus infection that sent me to the doc on my birthday that also came with an ear infection my first one ever I think. Some mild pressure. Nothing crazy painful. But annoying. I went to urgent care (not my favorite) but needed meds. Stressing through out...

Hello everyone as many of you know I've had my fair share of tms symptoms throughout the years. However recently there has been one remaining one that has bothered me for tinnitus. Now I've had it for 8 years and I believe mine might be from exposure to loud nosies. It did start after a party...

Hey everyone, First off, like so many others out there, I've had TMS symptoms my entire life. I remember the chronic ear infections and allergies so bad I would have to come home from school, along with a general feeling of insecurity and unease. When I was in my twenties, the digestive/IBS...

Well my saga continues. A couple weeks ago I developed tinnitus in my right ear, it seems to be unusual in that the ringing oscillates between 2 frequencies (WEEeeoooOEEEoooEEEOoEEooEEEEEoo), like a malfunctioning siren. I noticed it the day after I had been playing guitar, I was sitting close...

Hi everyone. I recovered from back issues with TMS work but they flared up recently with a lot of stress in my life and sleep deprivation. However I just pushed through them/ didn’t listen to my body. I’ve now developed ringing in both my ears / my head. It’s so high pitched and I can’t sleep...

Hi There, I am a 32 year old.. life was perfect, I had an amazing social life, family, amazing career, physically extremely fit ...but life took a turn..10 months ago... - I think i have had high performing anxiety for years (undiagnosed) and i was always told that I am a sensitive person. -A...

Does anyone know if Alan Gordon has written anything specifically on tinnitus and how he managed this symptom. I got one would love to hear more about it from his perspective, as it would help me fully believe that this can be eliminated.

Hi, i guess I’m posting here because I don’t know where else to post and I’m in need of some reassurance. I know reassurance checking isn’t the best idea with tms but I feel so low and broken and I just don’t know what else to do anymore. I’m 27, from the uk and my tms started when I was 5...

Hi Everyone, I am new here. I am experiencing a health situation that I am determined to heal. I want to receive positive support and encouragement in this process. Here is the story of what happened: I was on 1.5mg of Ativan for two years, taking it as prescribed by a psychiatrist for...

Hello everyone. First, I want to say what a relief to have a space where I feel like I can relate so much with others going through similar struggles. I am so grateful to all the doctors and therapists that make so many free resources available. I wanted to hear others experiences with new...

Hi all, Hope everyone is staying safe. A couple of months ago, I had some corneal injuries to my eye which left me in a pretty bad place anxiety-wise. My eyes are pretty okay now (still undergoing treatment), but during that time, I was so anxious and stressed about what would happen to them...

So recently ever since i first noticed my tinnitus in nov 2018 after a loud dj event. Ive been burdened with regret and guilt. Not so much from that particular night because i feel i probably would have gotten it anyways but more so my life growing up as a teenager. I would use a gaming...

Hi I am new to this forum and the TMS concept and I feel grateful that I have found this place to see some light. I entered a dark loop about 2 months ago. I am in my late 30s and have a family with 2 kids(10 and 6) and a good job. Due to the pandemic, I've been working from home with kids...
