06/11/2022 - People with T and Habituation

We are scared , nervous worried whatever it isIf u re lucky to see good dr thats fine

We have to stick together and support

To show that we are not alone

06/11/2022 - Habituation

If forever got t If sounds is bad

Would it be possible for total habituation

I fear dont know how to

Must it need a psychologist for cognitive therapy

5/11/2022 - Apologies

I am a poor guys so i can pay for medicalI got some psy problem, but before tinnitus

Its managable

Now i am new in uk, and i cant ask them to refer me to psychiatrist or psychologist or even ent whatever

Dr experience nightmare

So i made too many post here, i dont mean to play around or anything

I swear i m absoutely serious

05/11/2022 - ENT referral

Actually before sending to ent

Is it fair to say they dont dare to give cold shoulder like gp

05/11/2022 - GP appointment

Afterwards he said

Eardrum sometimes its like slightly poping just like twice a day

Would it be serious

05/11/2022 - Which noise is Cool

White pink brown or natural like forest

05/11/2022 - Oto apps experience

Anyone use please share if its worth paying thx man

05/11/2022 - This is insane, unbelievably

I went to an internist specialist for my hypertension then i told him i really needed benzo coz it helps, he said he would tell my gp, then u know what, when i go to gp, he said we dont take advise from them coz they re not tinnitus specialist it i didnt see them for that, u know what if this was the case , i didnt have to be back to gp

05/11/2022 - Headache part

You guys would the area of the tension varies? Must that use Mri to detect?

05/11/2022 - Specialist chosen

Would u usually go to audiologist EntNeurologist or some even try Chiropractic dont know which is good cox private is costly need careful consider

04/11/2022 - Uk medical system

Even if u go private they will send to nhs gpFor example if gp dont presribe benzo u go to ent or psychiatrist, when th precribe they send to gpwill they reject

I think this system is no good coz we should have patient privacy in private pratice

04/11/2022 - Headache

Is it commom u guys with t sometimes got headache

04/11/2022 - Unwilling to do referal

As i said they never refer me to specalist despite of some visits done

And asked me to go to tinnitus web

However in the web site cbt is evidence based

Still not willing to refer to psychologist for cbt

04/11/2022 - Sound change

Phobia cancer and change sound

Any one sometimes would change ear louder to another

Is it really if just one ear ringing cancer is higher chance

03/11/2022 - habituation

100perfent habituation please come in

Tell me about your experience mate

03/11/2022 - Sleep nightmare

The hardest part is ZzzzzzThat u have to put the earphone aside just in case, and even if u re asleep,u could still here, thats makes u get worse rest

03/11/2022 - Cognitive behavioural therapy

Is it just to make habituation or really help to lower down the sound

03/11/2022 - About brain retraining therapy

Would it have such worry if thro that to go habituation, would it avoid recovery

03/11/2022 - If there is such a statistics

Guess how many cant find causes How many can recover

03/11/2022 - Benzo

I know its not the formal drug for tinnitus actualy there is noneHowever if u cant or dont wanna find the cause or just contribute it to stress. This is fine to precribe , however they would keep saying causing addiction and avoid that even if u feel so hard to sleep

How would u thing

It does help in my case

Hello! I had very loud T for years, with extremely crazy spikes with suicidal thoughts! I began to search frantically on the web because science does not give me any answer.

If you TRY ALL of this, I'm sure in two or three month you’ll be much better!!

1.- Mother tincture of Passinflower plant at night, but you don,t have to take medicine for sleep! 

2.- Magnesium L-Threonate (only this Magnesium works well with T.) in the morning and five hours before sleep.

3.- GABA with Gingko Biloba and L-Theanine before breakfast.

4.- Control your blood pressure and detects if you snore or have cervical problems.

Keep in touch and best wishes!!
