#TiWi

The #TiWi - Tinnitus Wisdom series clarifies the origin and treatment of tinnitus in ten short videos. It helps patients learn more about the phenomenon and optimize their own tinnitus management.
#4: Brain, psyche and stress
Tinnitus occurs, for example, when the brain no longer receives information from destroyed auditory cells. In the auditory center, the missing information is supplemented, as it were, resulting in a ringing in the ears. As a new noise without an identifiable cause, affected persons focus their attention fully on this tinnitus. Negative thoughts and stress can be the result. Excessive attention and negative evaluation of the tinnitus lead to a vicious circle.
The explanatory videos were created by Pauline Schlegel, Hannah van de Loo and Martin Schecklmann.
