Breakthrough Insights on Tinnitus and Anxiety

[@CoralieFlatters]

I would recommend Bruce Hubbard's course. It has been most helpful for me and he is very generous with his time and support. This is a great video and really gets to grip with the acceptance of my vulnerabilities and be okay with this. Thankyouy

Thanks for posting this. Bruce is great. I've had tinnitus for most of my life. I've had periods where it faded into the background and I lived a normal life. Other times (like recently) I have been stuck with it in the kind of cycle you described. Most people have a somatic component to their tinnitus (eg neck and jaw movements can modulate the perceived sound). This is certainly true for me. That is one way anxiety can increase tinnitus. Anxiety leads us to tense our jaw, neck and shoulders, and possibly grind our teeth at night. This increases tinnitus (temporarily) via the somatic path.

My tinnitus came out of seemingly nowhere like a year or so ago (it was hell) i had no medical insurance so i was completely on my own but after watching a bunch of KZbin videos i learned to just live with it even if i hear it my brain is simply just not alarmed or bothered by tinnitus anymore

One of the best things Bruce said is 'just because you accept something doesn't mean you have to like it ' ......that was a game changer for me. Thank you 😀

Love love love. I have tinnitus, unknowingly I have come to terms with it but I do notice my anxiety is sometimes triggered by it. I never thought about it this way! Thank you!!!

You‘re so welcome, Edith. 😊

Thank you DARE team and thanks Dr. Bruce Hubbar for this amazing helpful video that resonates sooo much in my present life! I'm a 48:y.o. with a similar background playing in metal bands in my teens and just recovering from a stroke last year which suddenly triggered a panic disorder afterwards and health anxiety soo so much joined by tinnitus which was making me go crazy!!! I really really appreciate this talk and the information provided by Dr. Bruce Hubbar ❤

[@JCP-sp5ws]

Im hoping to habituate soon. Ive lost fear and anxiety about it.

[@JaneMyrick]

To the dare team I was wanting to know if left arm pain is common with anxiety? If ya'll could answer this I would be grateful

[@Thelastmecca]

I think where I’ve gotten stuck is not knowing what caused by tinnitus. I don’t have any hearing loss and no history of listening or playing loud music. I believe it was actually anxiety that triggered it and it never turned off. Is it possible it’s in my head and not a physical condition of wear inside of my ears?

[@robval7465]

Correct it's in the brain. But Bruce makes a lot of sense so does Julian.

[@naelbeno6249]

Take care of glutamate and Aspartame…. Its in the food.

[@nbfeen]

wow your situation is so similar to mine. I also have confirmed no hearing loss but a diagnosed anxiety disorder and I just don’t know if sometimes it’s all in my head

[@woodfloorsjohnny]

I get more of a Full/ clogged ear feeling..( i feel the emotion i deal with is NO ONE HEARS ME)..If that has anything to do with it ?..)

[@edithdelgado1609]

I also get this feeling often, never gotten any answers from doctors, the DARE approach is the only thing that has helped me cope.

[@Fieldofflowers4]

@@edithdelgado1609 how do you apply date to it?

[@pauldesrochers418]

I've been suffering for years.

[@iRoxanneLady]

Maybe Michelle/Aida can re-word this into shorter video. Because I think the problem really is the feeling of hopelessness: You do your best and try to find the solution by approaching (healthcare) professionals. But only get more uncertainty and more unanswered questions back. In the end you don't trust any doctors or people, and everyone around you seems to get dumber and more self centered (because they can't deal with your crap any more ...which also adds to the fuel). And in the end you feel like you are on your own in the problem. In this big, big unsolvable problem, which you know can definitely be solved. But it isn't solved, because people who could help (and should!) just cannot be bothered to look into it deep enough ..they just don't want to help you, or everything they do only makes things worse. How are you going to solve this problem on your own? And this is where the hopelessness comes from. So what do you do in this situation?
