Loudness

Really struggling tonight with my tinnitus so loud any ideas on how to help tone it down a little

Sorry to hear that you’re struggling with your T as I guess we all are from time to time. Do you have hearing aids with masking sounds? If not you should try these as I find them useful. Try turning the sound on your TV or radio up a notch. This may help too. Keep your mind active like doing crossword puzzles or word searches or playing games on a laptop etc. I often do that while watching TV. Think of anything like that you can do to distract yourself from your T. If it’s noisy while in bed then try listening to sounds on an app like Sound Oasis or Chillax. Lots of good luck!

I agree with hissingSid that’s about all Really.

White noise or something that masks it will help you to not concerntrate on how loud it is right now, give it time to settle back down, any stress could have spiked it too, and try your best not to worry about it 😊

Hi Nikkit1990,

Hissing Sid has given good advice. Try to find something you enjoy doing and immerse yourself in it. It's not easy, I know, but you just have to take each day as it comes and hope that it will calm down.

Respectfully submitted,
