ear and dizziness

[Abigg4]

I forgot to post this earlier. My apologies for not getting it out anyways for the past three weeks I’ve had dizziness ringing in my ears and pressure went to the doctor. They said I just had fluids inside my inner ear. I wonder if anybody else has experienced this because my depression has gotten a little worse.

Inner ear problems can certainly make life difficult in many ways. I'm sure that it would have a profound effect on attention.

I don't have ear issues very often, but I was prone to ear infections from birth until I was 4 years old. (BTW- there is a correlation between early childhood ear infections and ADHD.)

I have had chronic ringing in my ears, and have my fair share of ear infections.

This is kind of random, but do you possibly wear headphones/airpods and play music? It could be that you are playing it too loud and it's affecting your hearing. If the doctor says that it's a middle ear infection, though, don't discount that!

When I had my last infection (granted, it was outer), I was also depressed. mainly because I was partially deaf. It could also be a coincidence, or a side effect of the antibiotics (if you're on them). Antibiotics are very weird, lol.
