Since college I had tinnitus, ringing was so intense that I was falling into depression, I asked universe to help me overcome this and it guided me to Shirlest, after few weeks of using it ringing was slowly disappearing, now I live a life like I should, thanks to Shirlest

My only wish is to hear silence... 😥

[@f.b.8254]

Jack Attack, I agree! You've said what I try to convey to people, that this is a PERCEPTION problem. Generally, those who suffer the most from it are people who are obsessively focusing on it, listening for the sounds, and that is what causes it, or at least worsens it to a great extent. Find distractions, stay busy with things that you enjoy, things you love. In the beginning weeks and months I was regularly upset about it. I was mad, sad, and worried about it. I did research about nutritional supplements, saw all the doctors, had hearing checked out, had hormone levels checked (my tinnitus is related to hormone imbalance and menopause). But as time went on I got pissed off enough that I decided to take my normal life back, and slowly over the following months, I got it back. I've come to see that for most people, it is related to IMBALANCE in all areas of my life; and to poor sleep, too much stress and worry, and to feeling depressed, angry, or sad too often. When I started to have that understanding, when I went to bed and heard it, I was like "Meh, big deal, f- off" and just kept happy thoughts in the forefront of my mind, thought of scenes from my favorite movies, or my cats little furry faces, or the faces of people I loved, or some comedy sketches that always make me laugh, and I let myself be soothed by these positive thought-distractions. Then I dropped off to sleep more easily. It's been easier and easier since then. :)

Me too I do not know what silence is had tinnitus for 40 yrs in one ear after a bad bout of viral flu it has now visited my other ear so I am back to square one. I do not know how I have kept going but I have somehow.

[@f.b.8254]

George Kehaya, Yeah, I agree with you. Barbara Steisand and Steve Martin have also had it. It has not dampened their success or enjoyment of life either. I think one of the problems is when people feel it as a bad thing, as a punishment, or a sickness, etc, when it doesn't have to feel that way at all. In most cases (yes, I know there are exceptions), but for most people there is NOTHING WRONG in their body. There is NO problem. It is an offshoot of anxiety or stress, or anger, and general imbalance in a person's life. They have to approach the curing of it or the managing of it from many angles: Massage Therapy Cranio Sacral Adjustments Overall stress-management in one's life, which could mean changes to relationships and jobs or careers SLEEP, getting better sleep, more sleep, including sleep positioning (some peoples' tinnitus is actually caused by using the wrong pillow!) Some dietary changes ; it couldn't hurt to cut way back on processed foods, sugar, salt, caffeine, alcohol, smoking EXERCISE, not necessarily more, but better exercise, more relaxing (swimming, yoga, bike riding) It's when people keep their lifestyle basically the same, with little or no change, and stay in horrible jobs, relationships, get horrible sleep, take too many medications, smoke, drink, eat fast foods, watch too much TV, sit too much in front of the computer, don't get outside for fresh air or enough exercise that they then complain that tinnitus is wrecking their life. Maybe it is not the tinnitus doing it, but the fact that they are not approaching overall lifestyle changes to improve their quality of life.

[@wolfie1027]

George Kehaya it's weird isn't it. People take their peaceful silence for granted. I've had it for five years, I tune it out and have listened to a lot of binaurals, Hypnotic videos etc. I'm so used to it that even when it gets louder I just lie there hearing it and eventually fall asleep. Safe to say listening to all the material I have helps a lot. They have a few tinnitus sufferers hypnotics to listen to. Always get those.. they are in app form as well. Since it is a "hallucination" it makes sense hypnosis would be the best way to go.. that and acupuncture.

[@deaddocreallydeaddoc5244]

I'm 71 and I have had tinnitus since 1974. it has grown worse over the years. In my case, it's a very high pitch in both ears. It is very loud. My ears have become very sensitive to abrupt sounds, but I don't let it get me down. I ignore it the best I can, but that is requiring a lot of determination these days. It sometimes gets to me and I languish for a while wishing the ringing would stop, trying to imagine what silence is like. The funny thing is that I have played harmonica since I was ten and still love to play. I still have good pitch, too. I usually avoid watching videos on tinnitus because they end up offering fake cures that require a subscription, etc. This is the first time I see something that makes sense (I am a retired DC). I hope they succeed in finding a treatment plan soon.

[@budgie98]

One of my earliest memories is of my telling my Mum that I had a noise in my ears. She said, "Oh; everyone has that!', and told me not to worry. So I didn't, and hearing it hasn't bothered me at all for the last 75/76 years! (Edit to add) I spent 23 years working in an engine laboratory, where I had tests carried out on my ears, to the highest standards, twice a year. I would enter the soundproof cell, where the only sound I could hear was the tinnitus, until the test started, when, at very low levels, sounds very similar to the sound of the tinnitus were played through the headphones. The sounds were so quiet that I found that unless I breathed through my wide-open moth, the noise of my breath would drown them. Despite this, my hearing was always found to be the most sensitive of any in the laboratory.

Please look into them if you suffer tinnitus. I believe that all these other techniques helped but the true silver bullet was lions mane. It’s legal and sold in most Asian supermarkets. I got mine in pill form from a company called Host Defense but I think any organic source will work. Lions mane has been shown to regrow nerve endings and repair the nervous system and neurons in the brain. Do some research and try it!

I was 9 months pregnant when I woke up on my 30th birthday with tinnitus and Bell's Palsy. My doctor said that he'd never seen anyone with that disorder that late in pregnancy. I wasn't permitted to take time off without pay from my 2nd grade teaching position, so I had to teach 30 seven-year-olds after having sleep interruptions to get up and feed my newborn. The students were so loud during the day that the sounds were camouflaged, but I never experienced quiet over the two years I dealt with it. I heard whistling, someone blowing in my ear, geese honking, and other sounds and it was driving me mad, but when I was pregnant with my second baby and caught a bad head cold, the sounds slowly went away as I recovered from the virus. I am now 73 and it never came back. I have so much empathy for those who are suffering with it because I completely understand how life-changing it is. The only thing that kept me from considering suicide was my little baby. I truly wish they would find something that could help (other than listening to the static between radio stations--what I was told to listen to so I could fall asleep).

The odd thing is that playing that frequency will quiet my tinnitus for a few short moments. It's not supposed to work that way, but who knows what my brain is doing.

got treated from titanius. First clean both the ear , take few steroids from doctor good for ear infection . Then i took proponol medicine as suggested by doctor for getting relief from anxiety and stress for 3 week . Slowly it took 1 year to get rid of titanius . Together with I have started to ignore titanius sound , similarly like our heart beats , clock do tick tick , If we learn to ignore together with medicine and deep sleep for 8 hour with little physical walk or exercise 2 months . Titinus will get remove . In case this sound has still disturbing you , try to listen to few nice mantra like ganesh chalisa , gayatri mantra , hanuman chalisa before sleeping for 30 min or more . So that your subconscious mind forgot about the titinus sound and start absorbing sound of good vibrational mantra . All together if anyone follow this they can get rid of titinus within 2 month also. I was not not knowing the solution , so it took more time . Never loose hope .

Very interesting to read other people's experience. I suffer from a high-pitched tinnitus 24 hours a day. I have learned to live with it. When I am seeking quiet time is when I notice it the most. It has impacted my life in that; I have to look directly at the person speaking and do some lip-reading if there are background sounds. If a person is speaking to me quietly and not enunciating their words; it just sounds like a mumble. I have found that in group settings, I tend to not engage in the conversation much anymore. I am now the quiet listener because I miss a lot of what is going on in the group conversation. Sad because I enjoy conversing with others so much.

It's the first sound that I hear when I wake up and it's the last sound I hear when I drift off to sleep... and it follows me around all day. I can hear people just fine when they face me when they're talking, but if they're some distance away, speaking more quietly or not facing me I can always hear that they are talking, but it often makes it difficult to clearly hear their words. And, when I'm in a more noisy environment, like a restaurant, it just seems to get louder and complicate conversations. It's really hard to explain this to the people who are closest to me because they think I'm losing my hearing and keep pushing me to get hearing aids, but they don't understand it's not that I can't hear, it's that I constantly hear something I don't want to hear that makes it harder to hear the things I really want to hear.

[@Grays_Plays]

Hi there. I'm just writing because my tinnitus is a lot like yours. It came out of nowhere with no noise induced cause, and it also varies a lot. The sound can change, the intensity, the volume, even the pitch. I have however, drastically reduced my tinnitus from almost suicidal levels that I was suffering only a few months ago, and it's at the point now where, though it still varies, when it is at it's quietest, I barely notice it at all through the day, and it's quiet enough at night that it doesn't bother me at all during sleep. When it's at it's loudest, it only just barely irritates me, because I know that it will be quieter before long, and that over time, it will get even quieter. My tinnitus seems to be following a pattern of spike, drop, spike a little less loud, then drop even lower than the previous low, and I am certain that one day I will have silence again. It may take years, but the fact that it can be improved at all has taken away the fear this ailment had paralysed me with. My advice to anyone reading this comment is to check out Julian Cowan Hill's videos on tinnitus, or even check out mine to hear my experience, (but you're better off checking out Julian's.) Tinnitus doesn't have a "Cure", in the sense that there is no pill or surgery for it, and in my opinion there never will be a cure like that because tinnitus is fundamentally a dysfunction of the nervous system, and that's affected by everything from your thoughts and feelings, to everything you perceive going on in your environment, big and small. No amount of money or research will ever fix the fact that, in my opinion at least, doctors are looking at it the wrong way. Tinnitus can however be eliminated, or at the very least reduced, so please check out Julian's channel. Anyway, sorry for the massive wall of text, but I really have improved my tinnitus and gotten my life back, and I desperately want to share that with other sufferers, because I was almost getting to the point where if I didn't have people in my life that would of been affected by my passing, I would of wished for death, and no one should have to go through with that, not when the problem is actually quite a simple one, though by no means is tinnitus 'easy' to cure. Thank you for reading, and I really hope this helps.

hey man, thanks for reply. hope i dont have it for months or years. its not very loud at the moment, usually loudest in the morning, and then gets lower after a shower. i think mine was induced by a combination of stress/depression and earwax blockage. hopefully, it was only the earwax. i also have had a stuffed nose for the entire duration of this, so hopefully, when summer comes the stuffed nose will go away, and parhaps the tinnitus. mine is very wierd. it went from a low ringing, to a loud one, then changed pitch, then it was like 3 or 4 sounds at the same time. one ringing, one hissing, one that sounds like someone scraping their nails on a board, and one sounding like a angle grinder that is not in contact with anything, just turned on, and turned off, but still spinning down. now its mostly just the angle grinder. i also have this very wierd thing going on randomly in my ear. i can feel it, like something is happening. its like someone is pulling a trigger, a flesh trigger per se, and i can hear it a little. a couple of weeks ago it happened like 30 times in a row, and the sound was gone. then it sneaked back, so im sure its some form of body function trying to cure me. hope it is. anyways, it it is earwax cause/cold and stuffed nose, im hopeful it will pass within a couple of months. but this fking symptom can last however long it feels like.... imma check out the julian video, see if it helps. ty man. hope yours go away too.

Trolleylol, Have you had your hearing checked, and blood tests and all that, to rule out certain causes? Did you see an Ear, Nose, and Throat doctor? Another thing is lots of people have tinnitus from neck and shoulder problems. When they get physical therapy and massage from a highly skilled practitioner (don't just go to some bozo, in other words), their tinnitus lessens or goes away altogether.

[@f.b.8254]

Gray, That's fantastic! This is encouraging to read. I also see it as a kind of "perception" problem; problematic to people because of how they perceive it. If they perceive it with dread or anger or annoyance it is a problem, but if they are curious about it, unbothered by it like a monk resting in meditation, it ceases to be a problem. So it increases in direct relation to the degree that it's perceived as something bad, that has to be resisted. One of the many "tools" I have devised for myself is reminding myself that my body knows what it is doing; I will say that to myself: "trust the body, the body is not an idiot, it knows what it is doing, it is just trying to find balance." Everyone has to find their own way to feeling better, but I'm so glad when people like you share your positive outlook and experience.

[@sophiarocket1682]

Tinnitus correlates with stress and depression?!... with the limbic system?! Even as a nursing student at the time this video was posted, tinnitus has always been explained to me as "idiopathic." This means the cause and physiological processes are unknown. Thank you for this information and the opportunity to understand my tinnitus. I wish the best to my fellow tinnitus sufferers!

Tinnitus, or its perception of it -- and thus its impact on me -- has always been related to my stress levels. It doesn't ever go away when I'm calm, or relaxed, BUT... being calmer helps me cope.

[@alicejwho]

When I first noticed my tinnitus, in 2010, I felt panic/claustrophobia/anxiety and also grief for the silence I will most likely never know again. But now, although the tinnitus is still here, in both ears, ALL the time (the steady high-pitched tone) I pay no attention to it and I mostly forget it's there. It definitely gets louder when I'm stressed.

[@2lioncobra]

I'm glad you mentioned the stress factor. My chronic tinnitus definitely cranks up a few notches when I'm stressed. I love my sound machine. I find a sound that helps block tinnitus while I sleep or nap (rain, crackling fire, different types of white noise, etc). Makes a big difference in sleeping more soundly through the night.

[@Mevlinous]

I am glad you have made peace with your tinnitus. I have as well, had it since I can remember, since maybe 5-6. Thankfully it never elicited an emotional response. I live with it, and often go for weeks or months without actively noticing it. My suggestion for people suffering is to maybe practice mindfulness.

[@Mevlinous]

sebaswildboy like a voice in your head, it won’t go away if you actively want it to. However, also like the voice in your head, there are times when you are distracted enough that you forget about it, and it essentially is not there anymore. Technically it probably is, but, if you don’t notice it, it may as well not be. If your reaction to your tinnitus is negative, it will obviously become more of an issue, like when you scratch a mosquito bite, your immune system creates a reaction, well your emotions are similar. If you can find a way to not react, and don’t try not to hear it, but to simply observe its presence, and then continue to observe other sensations and sounds both inside and out. It will then become simply another sensation which you are accustomed to. I can’t guarantee this will work, but keep an open mind and you might just have a breakthrough. The key is, don’t try too hard, just let whatever happens happen.

Roaring, High pitch ringing, humming, whistling, you name it and that’s what I hear. At times it’s loud enough it feels like my head is physically vibrating but even at this level you can get used to it and live your life. My advice is get on with your life and don’t dwell on the past. Protect your ears but only when necessary, over protecting makes things worse. Stay away from google and forums and work on diet, meditation, and positivity. This truly is the key to the tinnitus backing out of your awareness. I would also recommend watching Julian Cowan hills videos, even watching his videos has calmed my tinnitus down at times and while I still have tinnitus I believe his advice is solid and can help at least back your tinnitus off if you remain positive about it. As far as stress being a strong component in tinnitus here is a little proof from my own experience. I was mostly habituated to my tinnitus and getting on with life until the birth of my first child recently, an awesome experience but also very stressful and emotional. Sure enough I was thrust back into the vicious loop of tinnitus and now it’s bothering me again but with the right mindset it’s slowly settling. Tinnitus is a mental game but with the right Mindset it’s one you can win! Stay strong people!

After one year of tinnitus i finally learned from 5 months til now, if i search more about it on internet it gets worse. (now that i watched it, i am paying more attention to the sound and starting to get anxious again), if i wonder so much it gets worse. if i pay attention to it, it annoys me much more. THE SECRECT IS TO WORK; STUDY; WORKOUT; RUN; DATE; LIVE UR LIFE and then suddenly u realize, days have passed by and the Tinnitus were always there but u simply forgot it. its like the silence´s sound and period, no more thoughts. no negativity, no depression. I am still learning to deal with it when it sunddely gets worse for no reason apparently some few times, when it happens i usually just breath calmly and wait, in 1 to 2 min it gets mild again. Another thing i am still learning is to sleep without any sound. No fan, No aircondictioner, no whitesound. Anyway, i ve learned already that time helps you. GIve time to u, be patient, and i guarantee u, u will live HAPPY again.

Jogar videogame, assistir algumas coisas, sair de casa pra escutar o barulho da cidade também é uma boa forma de esquecer que essa porra existe. Realmente quanto mais você tenta prestar atenção no som, mais alto e agoniante ele fica.

​@@vicm3129 I've had Tinnitus with no hearing loss going on 2 months now, which I believe was noise induced. At first it shook me and I cried a couple times at night on the same week knowing that I'd possibly never hear silence again.. 2 months down the line its a bit more manageable. I feel getting good uninterrupted sleep and keeping hydrated helps set me up for a good day with it, It's still there but not as noticeable, these are the days I'm grateful for. I still get bad days where the ringing pokes through most sounds and its hard to ignore, I just push on and drink plenty of water and try mask it with some music or white noise. My T is very high pitched a lot of sounds don't really mask it, I use a sleep therapy app that I can adjust the EQ and raise certain frequencies and connect it to speakers that go in my pillow, this has been pretty successful to help me doze off to sleep and feel that I'm also getting better quality sleep. In short- Good sleep, good hydration, try to remain positive, working out to release any stressful energy. Tools I use- Sound therapy bluetooth speaker for during the day for background noise, sleep pillow speakers (I really do recommend) Best of luck to everyone suffering. Hopefully one day its a thing of the past!

Then each morning after my shower follow it with a drop of vinegar. By the time I was in college I no longer suffered from it. For almost 2 years it was constant. So nice that God answered my prayer.

I have had high-pitched vibrations in my ears for longer than I can remember - decades and decades. I am 64. They are constant, yet variable in volume and pitch and in timing. In fact, instances where I realized I was not aware of them leave me with the feeling that they were still there nevertheless. I believe these to be cosmic frequencies that rewrite my DNA and help me to evolve into the human being I aspire to be. Whether this is true in the minds of others doesn't matter to me for it is what I understand and believe to be true, and knowing this makes the phenomenon a very welcome part of my daily existence. In fact, this is the first time ever that I have even shared with anyone at all that this happens to me. For some reason, running across this video today, I am inspired to share it with those who are experiencing similar higher auditory frequencies - and I am grateful for the opportunity.

Love this! I beleive the same - I’ve had it for nearly 30 years and am at peace with it - I notice it is very loud when I get in to an argument with my husband!

My tinnitus was caused by a loud explosion. There was also some hearing loss. It was still there after 8 years (and still VERY annoying). I was told by a top neurologist it would never go away (having had it that long). But during that time I had made significant changes to my diet and lifestyle habits, and after ten years it was gone. I was tested to verify that it was actually gone (and not just my imagination). It was, and my hearing loss had improved. So when tinnitus is caused by acoustic trauma to the ear, the body can heal it, it just needs the resources (and it must first finish dealing with more serious issues that you may not even be aware of, then it can turn its attention to something like tinnitus). So, yes, for some types of tinnitus, there is a cure.

Eating and living in a healthy way can allow the body to heal it. But the body will work on the more serious things first... things you may not even be aware of. And then it will turn its attention to the non-serious things like tinnitus. So it won't happen overnight, but it could happen.

Advice from living with this for 3 years: 1. Stay well hydrated and eat healthy food. I have found this helps soften the ringing (especially the hydration). 2. Do not drink caffeinated beverages, this aggravates tinnitus. 3. Practice sitting in silence, close your eyes and breathe deeply and accept the ringing for a few minutes. This will help you to associate the noise with being calm and will reduce your stress from it; and stress will only make it worse. 4. Listen to "tinnitus sound therapy" when it gets bad and you can't help getting stressed. 5. Speak to your doctor. There may not be a cure yet but that doesn't mean there is nothing you can do to help minimize the impact tinnitus has on you.

I have had tinnitus or ringing in the ears for many years and I find that if I think about something that interests me and not the sound that you hear, the tinnitus seems to quiet down a bit. I think it is important not to listen or to think about it to much because then it seems to get louder and louder and that can drive a person nuts. Another helpful thing to do is listen to a sound or music that you like, this is very helpful to me when I am alone with no other sounds in the room which seems to make the tinnitus very loud. I also find that when I am reading something interesting I don't seem to hear it at all. I think it is because when my mind is busy reading it can't focus as much on the ringing ear sound. Whatever you do, try not to focus on the tinnitus sound because it seems that the longer you listen to it, the louder it gets. Good luck.

I’ve had Misophonia since I was about 10,though I didn’t know it had a name until my 30’s and I didn’t know I wasn’t alone in it until then. Idk if there could be a connection there. See, I hear EVERYTHING, especially little sounds others pay no attention to. Adding tinnitus to this is more stressing.

I've had it for many years ... I was so confused about what it was and what it is for .. I now believe it is a spiritual sound of Angels forever singing in the spiritual atmosphere that keeps me reminded that the Holy Spirit is with me always ... Don't stop the music :-) ❤☝

I was just writing an essay about the ringing in ears during a flight, but stumbled upon this comment section. I pray that all of you who have Tinnitus find a way to live with it and enjoy your lives.
