Tinnitus & Resting

[Yogachamp]

Hi

Does anyone else have this Sometimes when I’m really relaxed I can have silence & it feels so good but I know the moment I stand or move around the ringing noise comes back in my head & what kind of Tinnitus is this?

How wonderful to be without T at times! Personally I’m not bothered too much about it, but lots of others on this forum will be green with jealousy!!

I know if I rest mine is better but doesn’t necessarily go away. As soon as I move around it’s as though my head is filling up with fullness and pressure. It’s this that bothers me the most, not the actual noise.

Sounds lovely 😊

A little bit green but happy for you of course. It's a good sign if your T. comes and goes because one day it might go. Relax as much as you can and enjoy the quieter times 🙂

Thanks Doglover I’m waiting on some cancer results so my stress levels are high at the minute so that not helping me just trying to deal with anxiety with loud ringing bells & rushing wind is making me a wreck at the minute. It never goes completely but when I relax it goes quieter sometimes. I pray every night I will wake up & it be gone but can’t see that happening .

[doglover1973]

I'm so sorry YC. There's lots of things of things you can do for stress & anxiety. I do breathing & relaxation exercises every day and I'm mid way thru a course of CBT. Anything you can do to relax your mind and body is ideal. Keep praying . You never know. When will you get your cancer results? I understand it's a difficult time for you.

Thanks DLYes I have head space app in my phone & do the meditation on there which does help , do you do CBT online I will look into that next I think. I get results Monday

[doglover1973]

Nice work. Meditation is very good for you. I do CBT over the phone. Just half hour. Easier for me than online. All the best Monday. Come & let us know if you want to but not if you don't - of course.

[Yogachamp in reply to doglover1973]

Thanks DLHow do you get the CBT & how much is it please

I will let you know if I can about my results

It does really help to have forums like this as I have had so many dark moments since this began & worst thing is I was such a happy person but now she is gone & my face never smiles any more

[doglover1973]

I went thru the dark times last year but I survived and you will too. Honestly. Tinnitus won't defeat you. I looked on a website called Psychology Today and found someone local to me. It's 25 mins @£22.50 It's very liberating talking about how you feel in relation to T. on a one to one basis. Try & find someone with experience of counselling T. if you can.

Aww Thank you DL that really helps I have never felt so low as this in my life & I just have to pull myself out of it. I will get Monday out of the way & then go from there, I am so lucky as I have a lovely partner & family support but it’s hard for them as they can’t help only you can listen to the horrible noise in your head .

[doglover1973 in reply to Yogachamp]

It's very normal to feel the way you do. It took me a good six months to surface. Be kind to yourself at all times . Don't try too hard to habituate. Let your brain do the work. Think of it as a journey - with ups and downs - but the path will get easier and the horizon brighter. Keep talking 🙂

Hope you get a good result today 🙂

HiUnfortunately not good news I’m afraid I have cancer so more scans & then surgery , so don’t think this will help my anxiety & T. Doc gave me Propranolol just 10mg but reading up on it it seems can make T worse so although only took for a few days tried not taking today but just made me dizzy & T went louder so had to take it. I will speak to doc tomorrow to see if any alternative. Thanks for your concern Dobradee.

[Dobradee in reply to Yogachamp]

I am so sorry. It must be such a blow I can’t imagine how you must be feeling. I hope you have some good support to help you through this x

[Yogachamp in reply to Dobradee]

ThanksYes I am so lucky I have an amazing partner & 2 daughters & family who are so supportive , I don’t know how people cope on our their own . I really feel for anyone going through T on their own let alone cancer. My T has been up the wall today probably the stress. I need to try stay positive but the problem is every time anyone says a kind word to me I start crying .

It’s good to have this forum & to know your not alone going through this . I know research is taking place I was listening to a podcast this morning & just pray help is on the way .

[Dobradee]

I know kind words can start the floodgates, there’s nothing wrong with that though, a good cry can be cathartic. Be kind to yourself, you’re going through an extremely tough period in your life

[Yogachamp in reply to Dobradee]

ThanksDobradee you are right. Had a better day today thankful for that & just praying they hurry with my treatment. Hope you are OK too x

[Dobradee]

I’m ok thanks. Take it one day at a time x

[Yogachamp in reply to Dobradee]

Yes all we can do & pray things improve x
