It’s true! I was hopeless, my tinitus was so strong that I doubt I will have “normal” life again. I hardly thought about anything else. Don’t loose hope, it gets better over time and eventually fade away completely. I promised myself to return to this videos once it’s better. Mostly people don’t, so it doesn’t look good. Just don’t overthink it and live your life.
@Rohan Krishna bhai sach me chla jaega na eeeeeee wala sound... Mujhe 2 din se hua hai Kyuki online lectures aur gaane sunne ke shauk se Mene thoda research kiya aur paya ki tinnitus ka koi ilaj nhi Ye dekhke im so scared and depressed
@@kb002 bro keep calm and don't react on it . Jitna Tum uspr dhyan doge utna woh apko satayega so tell your self that ye tinnitus kuch ukhad nahi sakta apna bas initial time panication, anxiety,stress sab hoga but you have to fight and drag out yourself from that depress life. And yes patience I will reduce soon.
To all the sufferers.... I have had tinnitus for 6 months and I have been to a dark place but u know what u will hear silence again I can hear silence in the quietest of the rooms now...the thing u should know it's not a cure it won't happen quickly stop acting like that u will do that and tinnitus will go away....it's a gradual process when you are in a good place with ur Tinnitus start hearing it I mean don't use masking devices or noise it will be difficult at first but slowly u will get accustomed then go back to your normal life as much as possible u will start noticing that the sound will become less of a issue...and slowly u will hear silence...IT'S ABSOLUTELY POSSIBLE TO FULLY RECOVER EX TINNITUS PATIENT
Thanks for posting this but could you tell me how long it took to recover and how long you had it, I've had mine 6 months and I can ignore it sometimes but not forget about it and sometimes it's quiet but always comes back , did yours fade gradually and has it gone completely, Thanks
@@surjayande4763 Thanks a lot for replying, I am definitely having an up day at the moment, no idea why, and I'm finding it really hard not to focus on it and get upset, how did you manage to distract yourself as I feel I make some progress and then a bad day puts me back to square one and I have to start healing all over again , any tips to make some progress will really help , thank you.
@@carolinemacadie3843 it will happen you will feel depressed one day and very motivated one day it's not a straight downward sloping curve try to motivate yourself by reading positive testimonials I mean around 10 percent of the population have it do you really think each one of them are down because of tinnitus?? No right it's easy it will just take some time
Hi, no worries. I'm a man of almost 22 and I'm crying like a baby some times of the day... You're not alone. We're with you, I swear. My tinnitus came randomly in the middle of the night while sleeping at 3 A.M. I was sick for a week and it was almost over and I didn't listened to too loud music or anything it just came out of nowhere. I was sitting in my bed and thought by myself "WTF is this sound I don't want this for the rest of my life!" It was like I immidiatly recognized the reality of it and I knew what was going on because I remember the beeping from sometime, like everyone got it once in a while and it was over after 30 seconds but since that night it never went away and I'm just like you sitting home hoping this day and the next day will be fine ...When you don't think about it and are distracted it's all fine but as soon you're alone or without any background noise the zooming or ringing will come up and you just can't ignore it...
You know I really do not know how to start this, so I am just going to speak freely. THIS IS TO ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO IS SUFFERING FROM THIS AND ARE DESPERATE! I had tinnitus for a very long time. It all started with me actually blowing my nose really hard in the shower, crazy crazy hard and I felt that it immidietly damaged my ear. Even though I was in the shower and it can get pretty loud, I felt that something was wrong. I came out of the shower and I could hear a loud beep in my left ear. And I immidietly start panicking. I was reminded of all the times in high school they would show us videos on tinnitus about people attending concerts without earplugs and getting this horrible disease. It was absolutely horrible! I could not sleep that night because it was honestly a 10 out of 10 sound. It was loud, man! I could not sleep but I almost half fell a sleep for a couple of minutes. But when I woke up it was still there. I was freaking the fuck out and I was so sad. I was so sad and all I was thinking was how I wish I could turn back time. And everything in y life changed. How I ate, how I slept, how I watched movies, listened to music, drank coffee or alcohol or enjoyed sugary treats, my relationship with my wife and friends. It was horrible. I got really depressed. I went online and read about it, I talked to doctors (several different ones), and they all told me to learn how to deal with it and that it would get better with time, in the sense that I would get used to it. I would learn how to live with it. This bothered me. You see, I have always been a person with great faith in God. I suddenly, very spoiled, but felt betrayed. Eventually BOTH my ears started ringing. It just got worse and worse I became a very bitter person and I just focused on the tinnitus and allowed it to take control over me. I remember my wife promising me that this would not last. She is no doctor and no expert, but hearing that promise from her, gave me faith and comfort. I found two people on youtube that did NOT cure me, but most definitely helped me. Liam and Julian were those two people. After 10 months of constant battle, I finally beat and cured my tinnitus. I went from 10 to a 0. I honestly hear silence again now. These are my biggest advices: 1. Have faith and be sure that you WILL beat this if you absolutely believe that you can. If you listen to the negative people or read negative comments and doubt that you will be cured, than I promise you that you will not be cured. This may upset people, but I am sorry. This is what I can say based on experience and this is what I believe. Total faith in yourself! 2. Do not go on the internet and read horror comments or negative shit about this condition! 3. Do not constantly check on your ear and see if it has become worse or better! Ignore it and breathe, stay calm. Relax! Even if it is a slow road, staying calm and having faith will allow you to get there quicker! 4. Focus on what you want to hear and your brain will slowly adapt and listen. 5. Live and behave as if your tinnitus is gone. Now, I do not mean listen to loud music....but trick yourself and your brain into believing that it has vanished or that it is going to vanish. 6. Do not focus on the amount of time you have had your tinnitus. Remember, STRESS MAKES TINNITUS WORSE! 7. Do NOT listen to people who say that there is no cure! There are no miracle pills, but with work and discipline you can beat this. I PROMISE you! I am living proof, and so are many more! Remember, people have beat cancer, learned to walk again and etc 8. Do not feel sorry for yourself or have regret about how you got tinnitus. 9. Remember to feel grateful! I know that this may sound strange. But it could be a lot worse. You could be blind, you could lose the ability to walk, you could have your face ripped off in an accident. (God bless all people who deal with these things) Stay grateful!! 10. If there are nights when you have a spike, or if there are days when you hear a new sort of sound....CALM THE FUCK DOWN! It will pass! Try fasting (I fasted for 18 hours every day), do not be afraid to eat meat (especially liver), meditate, drink less caffeine and alcohol, eat less sugar, exercise whenever you can. I had to come back and write this down, because I was depressed and desperate. Now get your life back! You can do it, I promise you that you can. Save this and read it again when you feel despair. Be a good person and be kind to people. It is ok to take the high road but at the same time do not let people disrespect you. I am sending love to you all....you CAN beat tinnitus, and you WILL if you want to and believe you can!
@@bernadettechung5098 I tried everything you can possibly imagine. I tried cold showers, tai chi, thyme in the ears, meditation, fasting, juicing, supplements....you name it! The ringing was either a 10 or the absolute best was an 8 for months! Constantly! And every time an "expert" told me that it would be this way forever and I would just have to learn to live with it, it made it worse because my faith lowered. But I did all the things everybody says...and at best it became a 7 or a 6. I could still hear it! But the day when I decided that I will live and behave as if this WILL eventually disappear and I will NOT let a sound diminish my enjoyment of life...and I had faith. REAL 100% faith. That's when one day I woke up and heard absolutely nothing! It lasted only a couple of seconds, but just that gave me all the faith I needed that it will go away. So I never kept a track record after that, and now I hear silence in the most quit rooms
Bane Basara idk if I have it but like recently today and yesterday I notice when I'm in my room with silence I can hear something it's not that loud but it's like a little background noise that I always heard and it sounds like brown noise but very low brown lose like it doesn't really effect me if I don't focus on it. But is that tinnitus? I always been hearing that some type of noise in a very quite room. Is that normal? Yesterday I was focusing on it a lot and it got louder? Do you think it's normal and I was just over thinking and focusing to hard on something that isn't there? Idk but I'm kinda scared but I remember I always been hearing this but it never effected me at all because I thought it's normal but now that I started watching videos on this with people's negative comments I'm getting scared but when I stop thinking about it like it's still their but I just forget about it and don't really hear it idk if that's just room noise or tintiuous plz help me idk
On a positive note, the tinnitus is helping me to identify all kinds of ways to reduce stress in my life. By the time it subsides I will be better off than I was when it started. Blessings for now, everyone.
That’s honestly a really good way of thinking about it. Once you fully recover from tinnitus you will become a much stronger person than you were before
That’s beautiful! It definitely helps you get closer to who you are and closer to your source. It literally makes you a better person and legitimately helps you enjoy life even more than before which is wild! And by the time it goes away, you’re extremely leveled up!❤ Sending my love to you! ❤
This is the attitude I'm trying to take on. It's hard, I'm a few months into having this and it's very challenging but I refuse to give up hope that I can come to a place where I can live a normal life again. Others have done so and I choose to learn from them instead of focusing on negativity. Good luck out there everybody.
This guy is on point. After following his advice my tinnitus is almost gone. Do not worry, do not be afraid. It's here but it won't be here forever. Relax and go on with your life, eventually it will go away.
Definitely check it out, the guy who posted that had it for 40 years and managed to get rid of it. I live in China and doctors here really can't speak english at all, but when i went to the ENT he pulled out his phone and using the translator wrote these words:"Don't worry, be happy". That's probably the best advice any doctor has ever given to me.
It’s my own personal “white noise machine”🙂... there are more things, in life, more important. So many more blessings to focus on. Thank you for this video! You’re right!!
Great idea. Why use pink noise when it’s already in my head? I do understand the principle Peter Studenik wrote about using it below the T volume to retrain the brain not to hear ones own T. I’ve not tried it to that extent as it requires listening to pink noise 8 hours a day along with reducing stress. It worked for him tho.
This comment really made me feel better. I've recently developed tinnitus from a lumbar puncture during an epidural placement. I received a blood patch for the headache, but a few days later I noticed an intense high pitched ringing. At first, I went through the 5 stages of grief every night. Now, I'm beginning to get used to it after about 2 weeks. I'm looking into other options for relief like chiropractic adjustment. You made a wonderful point - There are so much more things to be grateful for 💜
@@jessicamerced9116 check out Atlas orthogonal, Blair, NUCCA all different types of upper cervical. For me Atlas Orthogonal helped relieve neck stiffness and created more mobility. T still an issue but healing takes time. Update: I’ve also had PRP prolotherapy for what Chiro X-rays show is cervical instability due to whiplash. Look into Prolotherapy, PRP and Stem Cell. Early days yet (April 2021) so we shall see if the ligaments tighten and vertebrae move back towards where they should be.
If you're a new tinnitus sufferer, don't worry too much, chances are you will get used to it within a year and your brain will learn to tune it out. I was sure I would never get used to it but I did and now it's not a problem.
I was at my breaking point yesterday, crying hopelessly and reminding to myself thier is no cure,no cure ...no cure this is all i was thinking your video gave me hope ,Hope that i was looking for many many long years ,From the bottom of my heart Thanks!
Glad it gave you hope. Hopefully you can gain understanding on how tinnitus works which helps you on your way to recovery. The ringing is caused by activation in the central nervous system, which can settle with help and practice. Please download my app and learn from the information there and start practising easy relaxing yoga and have regular hands-on bodywork to help relax your system. www.quietenapp.com Distracting the mind away from the ringing and calming and bring your system out of fight or flight can help a lot. Wishing you well, Julian
Yes it is absolutely possible to recover! I got it in 2019 and it took at least a solid year for it to subside and fade. I still have it just a tad bit in my left ear but its hardly noticeable at times 😀
I've had Tinnitus since I was 17 and I'm now 56. Never found a cure. The high pitched noise is constant 24/7. You find a cure? Your's was most likely temporary.
You have helped me quite a bit with my current T. I urge people to stop looking for answers on the internet. Its a very haunting place to look. Most of what you read will tell you that it will never go away and you'll have it forever. This just not the case. Just because there's no cure doesn't mean it won't go away. Be at peace my friends
@@niharikasingh4998 you don't suffer hearing loss from tinnitus, if you have hearing loss your body create the noises to compensate for the hearing loss, I have it in both ears.. I made go away for 10 seconds doing massages I saw on YT but came back immediately & prob worse 😅 but I was able to hear the hearing loss & was like wow so this is what the tinnitus is trying to mask... first ear I used grinder & hammer then noise came... 2nd ear a year later used hammer now have in both ears but everyone's case can be different I have seen & some could recover but for me it looks like it
Hi Julian. I started watching your videos a few years ago when I had tinnitus. I was in a terrible headspace & the tinnitus made my anxiety ramp up, whilst the anxiety made the tinnitus ramp up. It was a racket in my head for a long time. I gradually made changes to quieten my nervous system & the tinnitus went from screaming in my ears to complete silence over a period of months. Now with the anxiety of a long distance relationship and this pandemic, it has started ramping up again. But I feel calmer this time because I have tools to help me. The only thing which is unfortunate is physical distancing because touch therapies were very important for my recovery last time. Thank you for all your great advice and help. To other tinnitus sufferers, please don't give up hope. If you follow Julian's advice in a calm and measured way, you will get better in time.
These videos do help I've had tinnitus for 2 years now and also thinking about suicide because the tinnitus is so loud I haven't been able to relax in over 2 years watching these videos to help a little bit
@@Sleep_em Hi there. Mine has gone away permanently for about 80% of the time. When I am tired or stressed it comes back. So I would say I have tinnitus about 20% of the time. The rest of the time I am in silence. I have hearing damage from being in bands and repeated ear infections/grommets.
Thank you! A recent sufferer, I assumed it would require drops, or medicine or surgery but I came across a doctor explaining how it can be eliminated via neuroplasticity. Rewiring the neural networks responsible. Our brains have amazing abilities and we can heal ourselves.
its very true mine had pretty much disappeared went to a loud house party and its been back on and off for the last 2 weeks, this dudes right deep breathing calmness just deletes it for me totally just ignore keep busy. i know everyone will be free of it one day i know it in my heart. stay up people!.
Let me tell you my story. I realised I had tinnitus a year ago before Christmas 2017. Quite simply my world imploded into anxiety and suicidal thoughts. I suffered through this for 8-9 months of constant hell. About 2 months ago I started to stop noticing my tinnitus as much. Then I would go days where I wouldn't think about it. What I'm trying say is that if your new to tinnitus please give it time. Julian is absolutely right in the fact that tinnitus goes away. I still have my tinnitus but it doesn't bother me at all. Your brain is extremely powerful and learns to adapt. Please give it time. You wouldn't sit there and listen to your heartbeat all day, so why would you listen to your tinnitus.
James B Interesting that you mention suicidal thoughts! My health collapsed in the last two years along with my life. The stress and anxiety lately has been horrendous and along with Eustachian tube dis function my left ear has been an absolute nightmare. My GP told me to grin and bear it, it may or may not pass! I have an autoimmune disease which is being treated with a biologic drug which more or less ruins your immune system while it works but exacerbated any small illness ie a cold into a long and painful experience. But it’s always kinda reassuring to know I’m not the only one with these thoughts, rant over
essentially the more you focus on it, the louder YOU make it. if you just relax and accept its there but its not a threat, in time you will automatically tune it out. During the day im busy doing so much stuff that i never hear it, but at night, I can finally sleep at night with it being completely quiet, which is when it matters the most.Trust it and be patient, you will hear silence again.
i currently have it rn and it just appears bc im scared of it/ anxious so im kinda searching for the sound. im learning to accept it and tell myself that its not life threathaning and it goes away. anyways tysm this comforted me a lot
Hi Julian, I just got tinnitus In February. It was shocking to me because I heard so many different sounds in my head as well as the ringing in my left ear. It sounds like my nervous system sparks intermittently. I went through all the stages. I was very scared and was going through the fight or flight stage, anxiety, then depression and lost 15 lbs in 2 weeks it was difficult to sleep. I was also going through a lot of personal difficulties in my family life which made matters worse. I felt all alone. Your videos did help me and things are looking better. I'm gonna be going to tinnitus retraining therapy soon. But I want to thank you for helping people with this terrible affliction.
Hey you get use to it... I have it for like 2 years. When i first heard it i went crazy.. I couldn't focus on anything.. Now I'm 31, and hearing aids to me help! i have two pairs. It's super depressing. My dad had hearing loss, and hearing aids. I'm 31, and I have TMJ, hearing loss, Tinnitus, High Cholesterol ,High blood pressure, Anxiety, doctor told me i was close to having a heart attack... Now after hearing all this all i worry about is death at a young age... . My life couldn't get any worse.
@@joer736 I have tinnitus since 1997. Awful in the beginning and I cope better. I h ave the same issues that you have. Some days it really interferes with my hearing and other days it seems to quiet down Weather change can make it louder or quiet it down. Take care of yourself and take good B and D vitamins, as this helped me so much. As the better I feel. The better I cope with it to being a non issue. Take care
@@jasdipkahlon7002 doing ok. I will probably get hearing aides in the near future, as I just cannot hear over the noise in my head at times. Overall fine. For the first ten years, it was quiet.and like I did not have it at all. Then I had a major female surgery and it came back louder than ever and I had a very tough time. Six months later the noise went to a tolerable level. That way ever since. I hear it all the time and am able to ignore it for the most part. Doing well and feel good. Thank you I am on the American Tinnitus help network and I occasionally get calls, texts, emails or even letter from others who have this. I have talked to some who were considering suicide and those are such difficult calls I try to help others with this.
i did recover like 98% ... i went from crying in a corner and not eating at all to the happiest man in the world .. guys it's all mental ... don't stress about it ( i know it's hard but you have to ignore it and don't try to listen to it try to focus on other things and you need to believe that it will go away ) and good sleep helps very well and i'll tell you STRESS is the biggest trigger of tinitus
My tinnitus started 7 weeks ago, for the first 6 weeks, it was loud, and extremely annoying while laying down, I couldn't hear it throughout the day or doing daily activities, i could only hear it in a quiet room or with my ear on a pillow, but it was like a 7/10. But now a week later, now into the 7th week. Its a 3/10 on my pillow or in a quiet room, I will keep this updated throughout the months, and not be 1 of those comments who vanish and never reply to people who are concerned or would like an answer. But do you know why they never reply? Because there tinnitus is 110% gone, and don't care to. Remember, we will get better :)
My tinnitus is still here, after about 4 months now, which I've been told and read online, that 4 months isn't long at all, and could still take another 6-8 more months to see it go away. I've been to, 2 doctors, 1 ENT and had an MRI. Everything has been checked, my MRI came back negative, my ears are normal, my hearing is normal, (from the tests I took) Personally I feel like it has somewhat gotten better, not as loud, its still a good 2/10- 3/10 in a silent room, and if my ears are covered. I'll of course hear it. But other than that, I cant hear it else. I do have mild, and I mean mild hyperacusis, my ears have a tiny whistle to them when a fan is on, or anything that blows air fast. But any other sound I'm completely normal. But I had the hyperacusis, for about 3 months now, but its so mild, its not bad at all. I've read and been told, that I still have to wait months. But I've for what I've done to manage, I've done nothing really, im living a normal life still, I still game, I still use my headsets, but of course at a lower volume, around 30% I still go out and drink with friends. (Not as much, due to COVID) I still eat whatever I want and do whatever, I have stopped using ear buds though, I use Astro a40s for my headset, so it goes over my ear, but again I use 30% volume for gaming. I've had no sort of spike, from gaming, or the MRI, or any foods, or liquor, I dont smoke weed or cigarettes, so idk if that might trigger it, but I won't find out lol. Of course I still have days where I hate it, it is annoying, but its only been 4 months for me. Again, it can take upwards of 6-12 months for it to completely go away.
Mine depends on time of day. I always hear it at night and morning. But many days it is almost undetectable during the day even in a quiet environment.
Learn to/pretend to enjoy it then it will ease up. I've had mine for 30 years and it's "normal". My tips: Less caffeine and less sugar helps. Ignore your ex girlfriend. Stuff like that.
You were my savings grace when this first started and now, a year and a half later I’m in such a better place and feel I’m about to get where you’re talking about. I just have to say thank you from the bottom of my heart!
@@shakun2828 I did have a nasal procedure but it didn’t cure it. I find the better my sinuses are the lower the sound. I have grown accustomed to it but don’t feel sad about that. It really does fade to background for many. I am moving to a state that has more humidity so I’m expecting my sinuses to do better however it’s not as bad as in the beginning. This video was the start of me improving however. It is a very special message and I truly felt that Jesus the Lord was working through the message. Sometimes, that is the greater message. Apostle Paul had a thorn in his side that he prayed to be removed and the Lord told him…my grace is sufficient for you. I now understand that.
@press rale yes. I use a fan at night and a wave machine in my office but honestly it’s in the background now. If you willfully don’t think about it, let me know how you respond. That was when it faded away a lot for me.
@press rale my first response seems gone so here goes again. I watched this video and realized I needed to give it to the Lord. By Lord I mean Jesus Christ. ua-cam.com/video/nLm6X60nG9w/v-deo.html For how I did that it is explained by JD Farag in the ABC’s. All on here. Blessings
Yes i have recovered from tinnitus....it took almost 7months to fully recover...i had it after cough and cold...i had this problem of congestion even before tinnitus....i did steam inhalation for 6 month straight..everyday once.. warm shower..even i drank apple cider vinegar for 1 month...everything helped me recover from regular congestion and tinnitus as well....i really hope everyone finds a way to recover...llots of love...
7 days ago i had cold and fever after that suddenly i wake up at night and hear a noise like jiji jiji like a cricket insect sound after that at morning i was stressed about it what it it was at night it become worse 😭 even if i am close to any tree or garden i can hear that noise louder i feel shattered it's been 8 to 9 days still i have cold and cough i am so stressed about it i don't knw what to do? Does it cures ? Plz someone give me suggestions my body has also become very much weak because of severe fever but but fever is gone cold and cough is still there and that sound
Mine went from screaming loud to a little whistle in a year, going to try TMS treatments to see if I can get rid of whats left. I feel for all you :( we'll make it together people.
@@connerthorston6750 I couldn't find anywhere close by and just said fuck it, I basically did everything to get rid of it but in the end i think time was the best healer.
Finally an explanation. It is a mental thing. If I try to hear it that’s when I mess my self up. But if I keep my mind focused and busy then I forget about it. The only thing that sucks is when I wake up in the middle of the night I can hear it. I’m thinking of putting a small fountain so I can hear the water.
Julian, thanks you for changing my life, and really for saving my life. It has been about 2.5 years now since I got tinnitus as a loud club, and I am fully over it now. Life is great :) You can do it too if you're reading this.
Please download my app www.quietenapp.com and watch the first things first videos. This will help you understand what to do. Hope this helps, Best wishes Julian
I think it really depends on the reason of the tinnitus, mine was due to ear wax impaction, thus once the wax was removed the ringing subsided during the following weeks until it was barely audible in a quiet semi soundproof room. Then there are people who just get it due to stress, disrupting the balance of the nervous system making the brain overcompensate for the hearing loss making the tinnitus more audible. Yet it still goes away when stress levels go back the normal.
It happened the same to me. I had ear wax, went to a doctor who thoroughly cleaned my ears and the tinnitus volume slowly started to fade... A couple days ago I went through severe stress and anxiety and the tinnitus increased again. I know it's due to stress because it was initially originated in the left ear and then I started hearing it in the right. If I pay attention to it, it changes from one ear to the other. A month ago I didn't have anything like this, everything started with ear wax impaction and high levels of anxiety due to it. I have faith and hope that it will go away.
Has anyone’s ever changed? I had the same noises for 5 years and a month ago they changed and I have been panicking when I was once hibituated.. even the new sounds react to the fan noise that I loved to hide it.. I’ve never had a spike before or a change I’ve been praying it goes
one night, I was trying to sleep. the loud in my ear was so powerful that my psychology was getting worse. I was about to go crazy. I prayed desperately. since then, the loud became less and sometimes I don't feel at all.
What he is talking is true , u can recover from tinnitus, in my case it was loud at Frist, listening to this this man taking his advise believing in his words helped me a lot , I still have tinnitus but its gone from 9/10 to 4/10 and most of the times I don't even release I have tinnitus Just keep ur head cool , mind cool , eat properly, don't take stress and ur good to go . Also try to minimise the use of headphones and harsh music don't have headphones on while sleeping,a big no , follow ur passions , hobbies , its just tinnitus it'll go... Thanks brother for helping me !❤
Thank you for making this video. I’ve had it 6 years but this year has been the worst after a succession of noise and med induced spikes. It was at a 10 now it’s 8 sometimes 7. I’m hoping to further improve over time. I had lowered it and habituated in 2016 (still needed background noise but it didn’t bother me much) and that’s where I hope to be again. Hearing you speak these words, knowing you have first hand experience, is a source of extreme support and comfort during this incredibly difficult time. A video like this is a great reminder for those moments where you feel hopeless/like giving up, and need new perspective. Keep up the great work. 🌟
I am starting again. Had 10 good years after habituation but due to Covid a new sound started in my ear that I a trying to habituate again. Just takes time unfortunately.
I am amazed reading the comments from viewers below in your blogs Julian, saying how quick their Tinnitus cleared, yet there are not many who have said that had tinnitus as long as myself - Over 25 years I have had this Tinnitus, so I do not believe it will go way!
I understand how you feel. I had tinnitus for 20 years before it started to back off. Craniosacral therapy helped mine get better more than anything. I never would have believed I could go back into silence again after such a long and horrendous journey with loud tinnitus. Often mindset is one of the big things that needs shifting in people. Our beliefs are powerful things!
This is absolutely the best description on how to live with tinnitus i have ever heard. I have had it for 6 years and 75% hearing loss in my left ear. And once i was able to ignore it and realize i wasn't going to die from it, i was able to manage it. Mine is always still there but i have gotten very good at ignoring it unless i have a full blown panic attack which is rare these days. There IS hope people i promise.
Kathy McDevitt ......good to hear these words from Julian. I can testify to all Julian says Kathy , I had 3 days of real peace and true silence ... and as you know I usually don’t hear my tinnitus during the day . . . I hope this have given you some much needed hope and encouragement. Let’s talk again soon. Best wishes Ade.
Thank you so much for spreading this positive message as there is far too much negativity out there and lack of knowledge on the subject. Helping me and so many others recover and fully let go of T.
It is possible! I had it for a few years (because i couldn't stop thinking about it). It was very loud and most of the time there were 6 different sounds. But now I don't have it anymore, only in stressfull times it's there a littttle bit, but I don't care. I know what to do.. calm my system. I know it will go away again. The thing that helped me the most was changing my relation with tinnitus on deeper levels. So I changed the way I thought about it, I stopped talking about it in the beginning, I stopped doing my best to ignore it because thats a negative emotion too.. I just said to myself: it's ok that this is here for the time being, but I go on with whatever I'm doing. And the second thing that helped me the most was calming my whole system. Recognizing that I was stressed even when I didn't felt it that way. Now when I look back I think: wow I was really stressed. Because my baseline changed. So changing your relationship with tinnitus and calming your nervoussystem.. that will help you!
Your videos are very comforting, please always make ones like this, If I feel a bit of anxiety about still hearing it, I bring yours up and it helps ,me to relax. I had it bad two months ago, and did body based help as much as I could , massages, and chiropractor. Meditation and 10 min of tai chi a day. I have been getting more rest, more salt baths, taking my vitamins. walks and more walks. I have been under a lot of stress, over the last few years. I needed to learn to take care of my body, and mind. I really appreciate that I found you.
When I first experience severe tinnitus it was so bad I was not sure I was ever going to survive. I read books about people that recovered and spoke with successful people that still carried on with their lives. It helped me believe and eventually after 1-2 years I got to the point where I could manage and I forgot I had tinnitus for 15 years almost. I started watching this video because I got back into that distressed feeling partially because the ringing had either comeback or perhaps got louder… I started to have those feelings of dispair once again.
I had tinnitus 11 years ago after a car accident. It was a pretty bad time and took me about 8 months for my brain to habituate the sound. I had not noticed it over the past 10 years but after getting Covid a few months back I developed a new high pitched sound. I am now back to habituation again and only a few months in but using the same techniques again, neuro modulation, meditation and sound therapy. I know it will get better but will take time.
Support group in our country for this type of condition is rare, I could not find anyone to talk about it. I've had it for almost a year and some days are tough. Its good to hear these words, it gives me something to look forward to.
When I got sudden onset of T in 2013 I found comfort in your videos Julian. You became the voice of reason and it helped me trough a very hard period. I still have T but have habituated somewhat. Still wish for a medical cure of course but in a better place allover. I just want you to know that your doing A FAR better job at spreading facts about T than any medical doctor I've ever met on my path.
I’ve had it since preschool age. I remember pressing my ear against my mom’s ear and asking her if she could hear it. Have had it all my life and started using a sound device to be able to sleep for about 15 years now. Recently after years of stressful life situations I have noticed an increase in sound that even the sound device can’t mask. I’m 67 now and am trying to search a way to get rid of it for good. This is one of the first UA-cam sites that popped up. Finally hopeful! Thanks for sharing!
I have had tinnitus since before I knew what it was. When I was a child I thought everybody had it. I forgot I had it FOR YEARS! It didn’t affect me FOR YEARS until traumatic experiences started happening, and it was all I heard all the time. I’m able to go the full day without noticing it. Now that I’m sick and having anxiety it’s back which is why I’m watching this video, but I’m filled with hope
You’ve nailed it-thank you! I’ve been a guitarist for over 20 years, starting at age 14, and I’m pretty sure I’ve had tinnitus for years. Back then, I never used ear protection during practice, spent a decade touring non-stop, and worked mixing bands with exposure to high frequencies. There’s no doubt I damaged my hearing at some point along the way. What’s interesting is that I never actually *noticed* the tinnitus until I saw a TikTok video of someone describing their experience with it and how terrible it was. Right after watching, I suddenly became aware of a high-pitched sound in my left ear. It was as if the video flipped a switch in my brain! Of course, it’s unlikely the video itself caused the tinnitus-it was playing through my phone’s speaker, far from my ear. Instead, I think it brought my attention to something that had likely been there all along. As you pointed out, once you’re aware of tinnitus, you start paying attention to it, and it feels impossible to ignore. The psychological aspect is huge. Even though this sound has been bugging me for the past 10 days, I’m fortunate it hasn’t disrupted my life too much. Falling asleep can be tricky, but I’ve always fallen asleep with background noise like music or the TV, and I’ve lived in big, bustling cities, so constant sound doesn’t faze me. I know it’ll get better with time, but it’s fascinating how much the mind amplifies the experience. While tinnitus is very real, our awareness of it-and how we process it mentally-seems to play an enormous role.
You may find my app www.quietenapp.com helpful as it talks a lot about how to shift your focus off the ringing and how to let go of tinnitus. Building in a body-based focusing element is crucial for coming out of fight or flight and settling the nervous system down.
Julian, thank you so much for providing me with hope, which lead me to overcome my anxiety. This really is a stepping stone for me overcoming Tinnitus.
I'm 23 years old and I'm suffering from tinnitus before a month and I was thinking that it would be very dangerous for me because it is being very irritating for me but after watching this video my hope came again and I'm trying to not think about my tinnitus
I suffered from depression for over 5 years. This year was FINALLY the year I beat it, I was so happy because my life was going great... then I got tinnitus, maybe I had it before, I don't know, but I realized I have it only a few weeks ago and my depression came back, along with a deep sense of darkness, hopelessnes, just knowing that it has no cure was awful for me. I started to block it from my mind, it's still there 24/7 but I'm learning to block it, these last two days I've been hearing silence again, if I "amplify my ears" I hear that endless "eeeeeeeeee" but when I focus really hard, I just don't listen to it. Mine is LOUD. I am currently in my room, it's night time (it was scary to me whenever the night came) and I don't listen to it.
@@RaphaWasHere definitely better. of course it's there 24/7 but I learned to ignore it and I'm living normally now, sometimes I can hear it during the day even with cars passing by, but it doesn't affect my mood anymore and I just ignore it and block it so my mind can't hear it anymore, it works fine :) I can hear silence at night. I protect my ears from loud noises so it won't get worse
@@nadialexa glad to read that you are better, idk about mine. i wake up this mornig with the rining but when i get out of beth it stoped, also i noticed that if i caml down and fix my posture the noice gone for a while but if i move mine neck it came back
I had Tinnitus in 2013 was horrendous as a teenager like all of sudden all the joy taken away from you . Went to an ENT seem unbothered gave me just ear drop. Then i learnt to live with it and eventually with time it started to stayed low and unbothered. But then it started again this year, i was not taking good care of my health, all of the junk food, the drinks, neck pain from studying and working. I used to take cold shower exercise meditated but then i stop this year or was not consistent
It's true, it does get better and we really need to remind ourselves that. I've had tinnitus previously in my mid to late teens. Luckily back then it wasn't excruciating but it was always there. I found things like having my fan on near me or falling asleep to effective ASMR videos helped tremendously and eventually it just went away. If I sat in my room completely silent sometimes I could notice it a little but it was never to the point of causing anxiety and the smallest sound could easily distract me from it if my tinnitus were there. But it really had come to a point when I entirely forgot I even had it. Recently I went to a concert and it was insanely loud so now I have the most mindnumbing ringing pitch in my right ear. I've been to multiple doctors, I even went to the ER because I haven't been able to sleep in over a week now. It's to the point where most of my old tricks no longer work but instead agitate it further. However, there are moments where I've found sweet spots and listening to certain soothing things in certain soothing positions that can both distract me and not agitate the tinnitus further. I've been stuck in a loop where I'm very anxious because of the tinnitus and the tinnitus flares because I'm anxious. These types of videos are what we really need to hear because it does feel like it's slowly getting better again but it's easy to fall back into the rabbit hole of the despair of thinking this is forever.
My tinnitus is an absolute nightmare since a gig with my band almost 2 weeks ago. I've tried all excercices and massages found online but nothing helps at all. It's a constant high pitched sound along with static noise inside my head all of the time. I pray that it will get better somehow cause I'm not sure how I'll be able to live with this for the rest of my life...
You don't have to live with it like this for the rest of your life. It can come down. I can show you how. Please download my app here and start learning how there. Wishing you well, Julian www.quietenapp.com
I wouldn't. I had a spike in my tinnitus after using the same. I went years with no sound and it made it worse. I had used it to treat an arthritic toe.
I literally self induced my own tinnitus a few days ago. I knew intuitively that I myself has caused this. I have had of course hear the ringing before but no emotional reaction thought nothing of it so it went into the background naturally. But this time I had an over action in which I can see it created with my attention. Interesting. This video is the most helpful and gives me a confidence that everything is fine. I can begin to let this pass. It’s like my mind had to push the limits just for understanding sake. I’ll subscribe to your channel so I can get the correct view on this. Reading all this garage info online didn’t help a bit and made it unnecessarily worse.
Best place for support and information is on my app here: www.quietenapp.com There will be no negative messages or distressing information or unpleasant responses there. Hope it helps. Come along to one of the live question-and-answer sessions every two weeks. Best wishes Julian
I just wanna say that I 've had tinnitus for 3 years now and it has been really bad sometimes. So one day I went to a doctor for my neck pain and I asked him about the tinnitus and he said"You need calm down,don't worry about it.Its part of your nerves system".I took some pills to keep me calm, nothing too serious just some herbs,and now my tinnitus is little to none..And it's not because of the pills,but because I didn't care anymore.Thats the whole point. You just gotta don't give fuck .I know it's hard,but that's the way to go,ofcorse if the source is your nerves system which in most people is. Good luck......!
😊 thank you I had tinnitus for many years on and off the McCain chronic loud and consistent for many months then all the sudden I couldn't hear it anymore it was very low tolerable and great I can sit in silence that lasted for many months then all the sudden I start listening to loud music again in my ears with earbuds for several weeks now all of a sudden the tinnitus is high pitched again for 2 weeks now I'm praying the pitch goes down again I will not listen to loud music in my ears again not sure if that triggered it or not blessings to all and may God give us all strength this new year and healing❤🙏
Hello guys My experience on tinnitus I have tinnitus for 3 months I was drinking 4 coffee a day smoking shisha 3 times a week Beginning was terrible very laugh Now it almost gone I have for 2 days vol 2 from 10 And it stop for 3 days to 0 After I did change my diet I stop completely coffee I start eating organic food Drink 3 litres of water Eat 3 to 5 fruits a day Sleep 8 hours Cute the sugar Most import don’t stop your life if you have tinnitus do double exercise run 4 days a week After I done all that my tinnitus get 80% better and improve a lot don’t bother me I just came here to share because 3 months ago I was terrified Thank Julian’s yours videos helps me a lot
To All. I had Tinnitus for 1 year between 2016 and 2017. I was free for one year than I went to a concert and started off again in June 2018. I am fighting with it again. But guess what, during Xmas holiday I was really off work and had great sleep, like, wow, and this was just after a week where I had a massive spike due to a short session with a Trumpet. I came back to work, and now it has spinned out again. so stress,stress,stress.that's the key factor. and yes - you can get rid of it. If I knew I would have not ever entered that Pub. but now I am still positively determined to get rid of it again... yes even after 18 months.
Thank you for your words ❤️❤️ After my first visit to the ENT I felt worse because I felt helpless.. he poured so much trash about how there is no cure and I have to learn to live with it.. that night my tinnitus was so much worse.. after watching these videos I feel so much better
I believe the advice that Julian is sharing with us is true. I have suffered terribly for 9 years with severe tinnitus and I am now experiencing days with total silence. Not every single day of the week but I look forward to the time when complete silence will rule again. My improvements have been measurable and for that I am grateful beyond words. .
@@ffichera9 That answer would not be a short one! I am going to write a book as this subject is incredibly complex. But I will give you the "Coles Notes" version. Tinnitus can be caused by 100's if not 1000's of reasons. And once you get tinnitus it can be exacerbated by completely different reasons. A quick example. My tinnitus came about by an ear infection but that was only the beginning. It has persisted for very different reasons. In short, you will have to reclaim complete body health. Remove all toxins from your body including any heavy metal toxicity you may not even be aware of. You have to feed the body properly ( organic food and a low carb diet ) and eliminate all stimulants, such as any sugar, alcohol, coffee , etc. 9 hours of sleep every night, and daily exercise is essential to the healing process. Try to reduce stress as much as possible. Stress is your enemy. There are many other things but if you start with the suggestions I have provided you will be on the road to silence again. Best of luck.
@@labinotzeqiri3303 I did 10,000 things. I researched tinnitus endlessly for literally years and I ended up having to create my own regime because I couldn't find the answers anywhere. I can say that tinnitus is merely an alarm bell going off in your head telling you that something is very wrong in your body. It will take a lot of personal investigation to determine what things are wrong and where you need to make changes in your lifestyle to health yourself and restore a proper balance in your body. I would start by examining your diet. I would recommend a ketogenic diet with organic foods if you can afford this. I would eliminate any kind of stimulants such as caffeine , sugar and alcohol. I would make sure you get fully 9 hours of sleep every day of the week. Get a good exercise regime daily. Avoid stress as much as possible. Make sure you are hydrated with good water. If you have any mercury amalgam fillings in your teeth, get them removed by a qualified dentist who uses the proper protocol. Above all, don't let anyone tell you that you can't silence your tinnitus. It may take a long time to get it to calm down, but you can achieve that goal if you make the necessary lifestyle changes. You can heal yourself. Best of luck.
My mother sent this video to me. I’ve been suffering from tinnitus since last Tuesday and have been to 2 ENTs. One thinks it is because of stress and possible ear infection. I’ve been given antibiotic-steroid ear drops. Honestly I don’t know if this will go away and if I’ll be able to live with this sound in my left ear for the rest of the ear. This is all that I’m thinking about. Haven’t been able to sleep in the last 5 days. Oh god, I don’t know if I have the mental strength to overcome this
I have an aunt that had tinnitus and she got cured by drinking a Chinese herb called “Cistanche Deserticola”. I myself also have tinnitus so I asked my doctor about this but my doctor said while I can take it, shouldn’t do anything because my aunt tinnitus cause and mine are different. She had it due to her older age and other contributing factors, while mine, came and comes from anxiety. I myself take Gingko Biloba from a German brand for 3 weeks but I honestly cannot say if I’m getting better. I just wanted to share my aunt experience, im not recommending anything since im not a doctor, just sharing since it might help other people. It’s good that everyone that has this problem share their own experience because who knows, might help someone else, and that’s already already a blessing. Stay strong!
Thank you Julian. Hope is such a powerful tool. I am still on my journey. Taking the emotion out of tinnitus has been a challenge but it is getting better. I’ve been going to a craniosacral therapist who is also a healer. She has helped me a lot. I also continue to go to my psychologist and practice yoga which is so lovely and calming and go for regular message with my sister. It’s all about slowing down and doing self care. These things I learned from YOU! Thank you. Joanne
sleepy rivers I chased every tool to try to get my tinnitus to quiet down. Craniosacral, accupuncture, massage, meditation,yoga. I found the volume did not go down right away. As Julian says it’s a process. Even though I just wanted it to be gone. It just made me more stressed out when it didn’t quiet enough down. I am slowly having more quieter days. Days that the sound is in the background. I still have loud days (like today). I find all the tools help and just trying to relax and take care of myself. Stress is a big trigger for me. Hope this rambling help. You are not alone.
I'm 3 months out from bad Tinnitus loud change. It's been he'll since Day 1 but it is getting better to ignore say. The loud level is still the same 8-10 but I have had 4 separate days of 2-4. Don't give up if your in he'll week or month. God Bless
I guess you just forgot to try "moving on" and / or ignoring it... (extreme sarcasm intended) I have a very close friend who said Lipoflavonoid worked about 80% to 90% for them and I will be trying that. They said you HAVE to maintain the daily dose without fail or you end up starting back at square one. The source is very trusted so that's what I'm going to try.
I just came to say thank you to give me hope. I got T, after listen loud music in headphone, and the regret almost make me suicide. The worst part is that here in Brazil is very dificult to found information... But i will search a sacronial therapist. Thanks Julian, and i'm sure that i will come back some day to say that it gone!
@@vs7591 yes it can cause due to headphones. I listened to loud headphones at full volume for almost 4 years hours each day. Now i have tinnitus as well as hyperacusis... life is very difficult.. i am only 20.
I’ve tried pretty much every technique I’ve ever heard of. I don’t have panic attacks or freak out from it, but believe me, it’s there every minute of every day and has been for over 40 years. And it’s LOUD!
I hope you have these essentials that tip the balance in the right direction: 1 weekly hands-on work that drops you into a deep state of calm and stillness - I recommend craniosacral therapy, 2 evening yawning sessions and relaxing self-facials to help free up the ear nose and throat system and trigger the parasympathetic de-stressing response in this whole level of the central nervous system that brings you out of fight or flight, 3 an ability to self-soothe - so instead of going up into stressful/catastrophic thinking and reactivity in the head and eares, you can calm yourself down and divert the attention away from the tinnitus. You need to leave your hearing alone and let it settle all by itself without you going in there with your focus and rattling it around with fear and anxiety. When you feel safe and relaxed and stop focusing on it , it backs off. This is true for 97% of people that get tinnitus. The 3% that get stuck with it for a while are generally anxious, overwhelmed or stressed out or they have a meticulous, perfectionist, obsessive mind that won't leave it alone in my experience.
Recovery is possible, I had terrible tinnitus but I learnt to just live on with it in about a month and ignored it ever since. But during an avid trip I realised I have it, and it sucks I gotta learn to ignore it again but it's also helpful in a way because now I'm thinking about ways of protecting my ears, which is a very vital organ for me. Stay safe!
Hi there, the recovery from tinnitus looks almost the same as in case of overcoming an anxiety disorder (the latter striked me as hell for 2 years) I was suffering, I got depressed etc. ... life was over [I thought] ... anyway I kept on focussing on how to pay my rent, finishing studies etc. = as soon as I stopped caring about it with my brain / attention it became simple unimportant ... end of story: I fully recovered from severe anxiety / panic attacks ... same goes to tinnitus
Truly appreciate your videos and your positive words. I honestly believe tinnitus can be cured because tinnitus is not a illness it's self. Tinnitus is a symptom of a bigger issue. Certain factors just trigger it. It is shown in studies that when your doctor tells you that there is no hope for something you're going through that it will send you through a negative spiral and can be bad for your mental state while going through the issue you are dealing with. I'm tired of doctors filling our minds with negativity, there's one thing with simply not understanding in depth but even so if a doctor isn't fully aware of everything about a certain issue they can't say that there's no cure.
here's a few suggestions for relieving tinnitus at home Ensure you eat plenty of fruit and vegetables. Make sure you have enough vitamin C Use herbs which cleanse the body eg milk thistle Use herbs with infection fighting properties eg dandelion root and burdock and others including echinacea (I learned these and the reasons they work from Dajon Ear Relief site )
Thank you Julian gracias! WHAT I JUST HEARD FROM YOU IS TRUE. IT'S HAPPENING TO ME . I DO NOT HEAR IT SOMETIMES BECAUSE WHY BOTHER TO HEAR IT IF IT DOES NOT CAUSE ME ANY HARM. 😊
I started getting really bad tinnitus, drank some Emergen-C last night not thinking anything of it but significantly reduced the sound for a few hours. I'm thinking it could be the zinc or maybe some combo of vitamins it contains. Not saying this will work for everyone but hopefully it might help someone out there. Just drank another cup again and same results. I'm going to keep doing this and maybe even try zinc supplements. Looked online and there have been correlations between tinnitus and low zinc levels.
I had Tinitus for over a month probably due to medical drugs Asaphen and Rivasa The ringing was completely constant day and night. I barely slept 2/3 hrs a night. I did everything you said plus all the audio wave sounds for Tinnitus. I saw a specialist for that but came back with no magic pill. After doing lots of research, I started taking 500mg of Niacine of Niacinamide in the morning, before going to bed and at 2:00 Am with the spikes were peaking. Everyday also took 150mg of Citrate of Magnesium, 25mg of Zinc, 1mg of Folic Acid, 1200mcg of B12, 250mg of B6. Since taking this in my case the rigging started to diminished last Friday to the point that it has stop ringing since the past 2 days. I am not a doctor nor can I explain this yet it worked for me. From hell I am starting entering paradise Thanks for your tips especially on the negative loop. You gave me hope.
Yes I did. I sleep now 7 to 8 hours a night. Rarely the ringing happens so faint to a point you wonder if you have it. Important cut the coffee and the tea
Did you stop taking the drugs you thought were causing the tinnitus? I have to take blood pressure pill with a beta blocker so I can't stop taking it. Tried once for two days and had heart problems. I used to be able to mask it but now its so loud I hear it over everything.
Hi Julian, I only found you yesterday and I’ve already watched about 15 videos of yours 😂. You have such a calm wonderful way of speaking, I’m sure your advice is going to help me immensely. I’m going to see my cranial osteopath today, it’s never dawned on me to tell her I have tinnitus, so I’m now looking forward to what she might do once I’ve told her, Thank you!
I am so disturbed about my tinnitus that I am unable to eat. But after hearing that it can be heal, I am so glad. I will be full of joy to be heal.thanks for your video.
I think this is for people who develop tinnitus later in life. I have had it since I was a small kid. I don't remember NEVER having it, and I am 61 years old. As a kid, I never realized it was not normal because it had always been there.
I think it's really depending on what kind of tinnitus you have. I know someone who got that after a blast effect in a terrorist attack in the 80s. It never get away. No serious person having worked in this field would tell him "if you don't focus on, it will go" in 2019 ! His internal ear is permanently injured. It's not a discomfort. Nobody can get used to hear constantly a ring covering the sound of the metro or a train in the head. That's the level of the thing he lives with. He survived... with all the consequences that it means. Wether he focuses on it or not, it's there and it's annoying. Other cases are not due to such a dramatic event but it doesn't mean that if you don't focus on, you won't notice it. It's true only for some people. Not for all. Some people can live with it. Some cannot. It's not a matter of perception. It's a matter of how you ear are affected or not.
I have been through the worst week of my life, and my tinnitus is not really that loud, I’m just really anxious and OCD, and you know how much this can make it worse. Seeing so many people stating that it gets better is giving me a little of hope. After just one week it’s a little better, I hope that it will go away but if not I hope habituation will be real and that I will have my life back. I can actually sleep without too much effort, I can even take naps. I really hope it will get better with time.
Sounds like you a moving in the right direction. If you download my app www.quietenapp.com and go to the documents section and open "Positive Feedback" you will find 140-odd positive stories of people getting better. This is really helpful for developing a more positive mindset and knowing that you too can get better! Best wishes Julian
@@JulianCowanHill I downloaded your app and it looks great, you seem so calm and wise that your words give me a little of solace. I’m trying to think that with time everything will really be fine, and I will follow your advices also because you are giving positive vibes and hope. If so many people say that they can live very well with tinnitus at the point it’s almost gone I hope it will be the same for me. Thank you so much for what you do, I’ll write here again if something changes for the best.
My inner ear was damaged by a mine blast. When I hear loud noises it goes static and hurts. It rings so loud I can think. I have had it for over 10 years
Julian I watch this everyday to help reassure myself I will heal from this. I am saving my coins to have a session with you as well. Blessings be upon you, thank you for your videos
Glad this is helping. If you download my app www.quietenapp.com and go to the audio section, there are reassurances there that people find really helpful. There is a lot of information there that will help you make sense of this condition and help teach you that this is a very changeable condition. Once you know how it works it becomes common sense what helps you get better. Hope this helps. Best wishes, Julian
My body is contantly shaking and I feel like a deer in head headlights. My ears are 10/10... I’m freaking out yo. No one believes me. This isn’t how I planned on spending my 20s...
Sounds like you are going in and out of the fight or flight and freeze response. Ideally find a Craniosacral Therapist who has done a shock and trauma training. But most experience and good body-based therapist can help you process this shock can help your system settle.
My tinnitus was awful for months. I would say 9/10 as i thankfully had lower sound days as a alight respite. I couldn't see how I would be able to cope with this for the rest of my life. Thankfully the level went down to a 2/10 after a few months and I have fully habitualised to it. I can easily sleep with no white noise. And its no bother sitting in a quiet room. So so happy ❤ it is possible!
It’s true! I was hopeless, my tinitus was so strong that I doubt I will have “normal” life again. I hardly thought about anything else. Don’t loose hope, it gets better over time and eventually fade away completely. I promised myself to return to this videos once it’s better. Mostly people don’t, so it doesn’t look good. Just don’t overthink it and live your life.
How long it remained and was it accompanied by hearing loss?
@Rohan Krishna bhai sach me chla jaega na eeeeeee wala sound... Mujhe 2 din se hua hai
Kyuki online lectures aur gaane sunne ke shauk se
Mene thoda research kiya aur paya ki tinnitus ka koi ilaj nhi
Ye dekhke im so scared and depressed
@@kb002 bro keep calm and don't react on it . Jitna Tum uspr dhyan doge utna woh apko satayega so tell your self that ye tinnitus kuch ukhad nahi sakta apna bas initial time panication, anxiety,stress sab hoga but you have to fight and drag out yourself from that depress life. And yes patience I will reduce soon.
@Rohan Krishna how do you do?
@roro u had hearing loss????
To all the sufferers....
I have had tinnitus for 6 months and I have been to a dark place but u know what u will hear silence again I can hear silence in the quietest of the rooms now...the thing u should know it's not a cure it won't happen quickly stop acting like that u will do that and tinnitus will go away....it's a gradual process when you are in a good place with ur Tinnitus start hearing it I mean don't use masking devices or noise it will be difficult at first but slowly u will get accustomed then go back to your normal life as much as possible u will start noticing that the sound will become less of a issue...and slowly u will hear silence...IT'S ABSOLUTELY POSSIBLE TO FULLY RECOVER
EX TINNITUS PATIENT
Thanks for posting this but could you tell me how long it took to recover and how long you had it, I've had mine 6 months and I can ignore it sometimes but not forget about it and sometimes it's quiet but always comes back , did yours fade gradually and has it gone completely, Thanks
I've had it for 5 years and I'm about to kill myself.
@@carolinemacadie3843 Yes it faded gradually it will go up and down a few times before completely backing off.
@@surjayande4763 Thanks a lot for replying, I am definitely having an up day at the moment, no idea why, and I'm finding it really hard not to focus on it and get upset, how did you manage to distract yourself as I feel I make some progress and then a bad day puts me back to square one and I have to start healing all over again , any tips to make some progress will really help , thank you.
@@carolinemacadie3843 it will happen you will feel depressed one day and very motivated one day it's not a straight downward sloping curve try to motivate yourself by reading positive testimonials I mean around 10 percent of the population have it do you really think each one of them are down because of tinnitus??
No right it's easy it will just take some time
Just today I was feeling helpless about my tinnitus. Thank you for the reminder that It will get better.
Hi, no worries. I'm a man of almost 22 and I'm crying like a baby some times of the day... You're not alone. We're with you, I swear. My tinnitus came randomly in the middle of the night while sleeping at 3 A.M. I was sick for a week and it was almost over and I didn't listened to too loud music or anything it just came out of nowhere. I was sitting in my bed and thought by myself "WTF is this sound I don't want this for the rest of my life!" It was like I immidiatly recognized the reality of it and I knew what was going on because I remember the beeping from sometime, like everyone got it once in a while and it was over after 30 seconds but since that night it never went away and I'm just like you sitting home hoping this day and the next day will be fine ...When you don't think about it and are distracted it's all fine but as soon you're alone or without any background noise the zooming or ringing will come up and you just can't ignore it...
@@Nycto97 how are you doing now ? I hope.youre better
I hop it’s gone God bless you
Hi Amanda... im feeling the same today. It hurts I know. It will get better:)
@@Nycto97 how are u doing now it's been a year since your post.
You know I really do not know how to start this, so I am just going to speak freely. THIS IS TO ALL YOU PEOPLE WHO IS SUFFERING FROM THIS AND ARE DESPERATE!
I had tinnitus for a very long time. It all started with me actually blowing my nose really hard in the shower, crazy crazy hard and I felt that it immidietly damaged my ear.
Even though I was in the shower and it can get pretty loud, I felt that something was wrong. I came out of the shower and I could hear a loud beep in my left ear. And I immidietly start panicking.
I was reminded of all the times in high school they would show us videos on tinnitus about people attending concerts without earplugs and getting this horrible disease.
It was absolutely horrible! I could not sleep that night because it was honestly a 10 out of 10 sound. It was loud, man! I could not sleep but I almost half fell a sleep for a couple of minutes.
But when I woke up it was still there. I was freaking the fuck out and I was so sad. I was so sad and all I was thinking was how I wish I could turn back time. And everything in y life changed.
How I ate, how I slept, how I watched movies, listened to music, drank coffee or alcohol or enjoyed sugary treats, my relationship with my wife and friends. It was horrible. I got really depressed.
I went online and read about it, I talked to doctors (several different ones), and they all told me to learn how to deal with it and that it would get better with time, in the sense that I would get used to it.
I would learn how to live with it. This bothered me. You see, I have always been a person with great faith in God. I suddenly, very spoiled, but felt betrayed. Eventually BOTH my ears started ringing.
It just got worse and worse
I became a very bitter person and I just focused on the tinnitus and allowed it to take control over me.
I remember my wife promising me that this would not last. She is no doctor and no expert, but hearing that promise from her, gave me faith and comfort. I found two people on youtube that did NOT cure me, but most definitely helped me.
Liam and Julian were those two people. After 10 months of constant battle, I finally beat and cured my tinnitus. I went from 10 to a 0. I honestly hear silence again now.
These are my biggest advices:
1. Have faith and be sure that you WILL beat this if you absolutely believe that you can. If you listen to the negative people or read negative comments and doubt that you will be cured, than I promise you that you will not be cured.
This may upset people, but I am sorry. This is what I can say based on experience and this is what I believe. Total faith in yourself!
2. Do not go on the internet and read horror comments or negative shit about this condition!
3. Do not constantly check on your ear and see if it has become worse or better! Ignore it and breathe, stay calm. Relax! Even if it is a slow road, staying calm and having faith will allow you to get there quicker!
4. Focus on what you want to hear and your brain will slowly adapt and listen.
5. Live and behave as if your tinnitus is gone. Now, I do not mean listen to loud music....but trick yourself and your brain into believing that it has vanished or that it is going to vanish.
6. Do not focus on the amount of time you have had your tinnitus. Remember, STRESS MAKES TINNITUS WORSE!
7. Do NOT listen to people who say that there is no cure! There are no miracle pills, but with work and discipline you can beat this. I PROMISE you! I am living proof, and so are many more! Remember, people have beat cancer, learned to walk again and etc
8. Do not feel sorry for yourself or have regret about how you got tinnitus.
9. Remember to feel grateful! I know that this may sound strange. But it could be a lot worse. You could be blind, you could lose the ability to walk, you could have your face ripped off in an accident. (God bless all people who deal with these things)
Stay grateful!!
10. If there are nights when you have a spike, or if there are days when you hear a new sort of sound....CALM THE FUCK DOWN! It will pass!
Try fasting (I fasted for 18 hours every day), do not be afraid to eat meat (especially liver), meditate, drink less caffeine and alcohol, eat less sugar, exercise whenever you can.
I had to come back and write this down, because I was depressed and desperate. Now get your life back! You can do it, I promise you that you can. Save this and read it again when you feel despair.
Be a good person and be kind to people. It is ok to take the high road but at the same time do not let people disrespect you.
I am sending love to you all....you CAN beat tinnitus, and you WILL if you want to and believe you can!
can you share what was your recovery like towards the day you achieve silence? did the tinnitus gradually soften until it totally disappeared? thanks
@@bernadettechung5098 I tried everything you can possibly imagine. I tried cold showers, tai chi, thyme in the ears, meditation, fasting, juicing, supplements....you name it! The ringing was either a 10 or the absolute best was an 8 for months! Constantly! And every time an "expert" told me that it would be this way forever and I would just have to learn to live with it, it made it worse because my faith lowered. But I did all the things everybody says...and at best it became a 7 or a 6. I could still hear it! But the day when I decided that I will live and behave as if this WILL eventually disappear and I will NOT let a sound diminish my enjoyment of life...and I had faith. REAL 100% faith. That's when one day I woke up and heard absolutely nothing! It lasted only a couple of seconds, but just that gave me all the faith I needed that it will go away. So I never kept a track record after that, and now I hear silence in the most quit rooms
@@banebasara53 that is so inspiring. thank you so much for replying.
@@bernadettechung5098 I am living proof that you can beat this. You will! Believe in yourself and don't listen to anyone else
Bane Basara idk if I have it but like recently today and yesterday I notice when I'm in my room with silence I can hear something it's not that loud but it's like a little background noise that I always heard and it sounds like brown noise but very low brown lose like it doesn't really effect me if I don't focus on it. But is that tinnitus? I always been hearing that some type of noise in a very quite room. Is that normal? Yesterday I was focusing on it a lot and it got louder? Do you think it's normal and I was just over thinking and focusing to hard on something that isn't there? Idk but I'm kinda scared but I remember I always been hearing this but it never effected me at all because I thought it's normal but now that I started watching videos on this with people's negative comments I'm getting scared but when I stop thinking about it like it's still their but I just forget about it and don't really hear it idk if that's just room noise or tintiuous plz help me idk
On a positive note, the tinnitus is helping me to identify all kinds of ways to reduce stress in my life. By the time it subsides I will be better off than I was when it started. Blessings for now, everyone.
How’s now
That’s honestly a really good way of thinking about it. Once you fully recover from tinnitus you will become a much stronger person than you were before
4:47 thank you
That’s beautiful! It definitely helps you get closer to who you are and closer to your source. It literally makes you a better person and legitimately helps you enjoy life even more than before which is wild! And by the time it goes away, you’re extremely leveled up!❤ Sending my love to you! ❤
This is the attitude I'm trying to take on. It's hard, I'm a few months into having this and it's very challenging but I refuse to give up hope that I can come to a place where I can live a normal life again. Others have done so and I choose to learn from them instead of focusing on negativity. Good luck out there everybody.
Imagine the difference it would make if ENTs said "be patient, relief will find you" rather than "live with it". Could have changed a lot of paths
They never say that nowadays as the effect it would cause would cure a lot of people.
so true... i cried for days until i turned into youtube
Right, they need to be kinder to patients and care less about the money.
This guy is on point. After following his advice my tinnitus is almost gone. Do not worry, do not be afraid. It's here but it won't be here forever. Relax and go on with your life, eventually it will go away.
qualle0879 We can agree to disagree. All the best to you, hopefully you'll make a full recovery.
qualle0879 Again, we can agree to disagree.

Definitely check it out, the guy who posted that had it for 40 years and managed to get rid of it. I live in China and doctors here really can't speak english at all, but when i went to the ENT he pulled out his phone and using the translator wrote these words:"Don't worry, be happy". That's probably the best advice any doctor has ever given to me.
It’s my own personal “white noise machine”🙂... there are more things, in life, more important. So many more blessings to focus on. Thank you for this video! You’re right!!
Great idea. Why use pink noise when it’s already in my head? I do understand the principle Peter Studenik wrote about using it below the T volume to retrain the brain not to hear ones own T. I’ve not tried it to that extent as it requires listening to pink noise 8 hours a day along with reducing stress. It worked for him tho.
This comment really made me feel better. I've recently developed tinnitus from a lumbar puncture during an epidural placement. I received a blood patch for the headache, but a few days later I noticed an intense high pitched ringing. At first, I went through the 5 stages of grief every night. Now, I'm beginning to get used to it after about 2 weeks. I'm looking into other options for relief like chiropractic adjustment. You made a wonderful point - There are so much more things to be grateful for 💜
@@jessicamerced9116 check out Atlas orthogonal, Blair, NUCCA all different types of upper cervical. For me Atlas Orthogonal helped relieve neck stiffness and created more mobility. T still an issue but healing takes time.
Update: I’ve also had PRP prolotherapy for what Chiro X-rays show is cervical instability due to whiplash. Look into Prolotherapy, PRP and Stem Cell. Early days yet (April 2021) so we shall see if the ligaments tighten and vertebrae move back towards where they should be.
ua-cam.com/video/uQw165bnSxo/v-deo.html try this. You will get relief within 7 days. Mine is reduced alot since I followed it
If you're a new tinnitus sufferer, don't worry too much, chances are you will get used to it within a year and your brain will learn to tune it out. I was sure I would never get used to it but I did and now it's not a problem.
I was at my breaking point yesterday, crying hopelessly and reminding to myself thier is no cure,no cure ...no cure this is all i was thinking your video gave me hope ,Hope that i was looking for many many long years ,From the bottom of my heart Thanks!
Glad it gave you hope. Hopefully you can gain understanding on how tinnitus works which helps you on your way to recovery. The ringing is caused by activation in the central nervous system, which can settle with help and practice. Please download my app and learn from the information there and start practising easy relaxing yoga and have regular hands-on bodywork to help relax your system. www.quietenapp.com
Distracting the mind away from the ringing and calming and bring your system out of fight or flight can help a lot. Wishing you well, Julian
Yes it is absolutely possible to recover! I got it in 2019 and it took at least a solid year for it to subside and fade. I still have it just a tad bit in my left ear but its hardly noticeable at times 😀
How are you now?
Yeah i would like to know that too
I did recover from almost a year of torture, now im fine, dont give up
Adriano Freitas thank you, Did it just go away? Or what did you do????
What did you do?
Yes please share and help others so they can know what to do. Thank you!
What did u do,plzzz share,many can benefit
I've had Tinnitus since I was 17 and I'm now 56. Never found a cure. The high pitched noise is constant 24/7.
You find a cure? Your's was most likely temporary.
You have helped me quite a bit with my current T. I urge people to stop looking for answers on the internet. Its a very haunting place to look. Most of what you read will tell you that it will never go away and you'll have it forever. This just not the case. Just because there's no cure doesn't mean it won't go away. Be at peace my friends
It started when I was 19 ..... I'm 47 now ..... most of time I forget about it... then I remember and can hear it.
Did you suffered any hearing loss because of tinnitus??
Same 30 some years I've had the screeching ... not annoying anymore... till I focus on it

@@brisapremia1658 oh okay! Thank you 😘
@@niharikasingh4998 you don't suffer hearing loss from tinnitus, if you have hearing loss your body create the noises to compensate for the hearing loss, I have it in both ears..

Hi Julian. I started watching your videos a few years ago when I had tinnitus. I was in a terrible headspace & the tinnitus made my anxiety ramp up, whilst the anxiety made the tinnitus ramp up. It was a racket in my head for a long time. I gradually made changes to quieten my nervous system & the tinnitus went from screaming in my ears to complete silence over a period of months. Now with the anxiety of a long distance relationship and this pandemic, it has started ramping up again. But I feel calmer this time because I have tools to help me. The only thing which is unfortunate is physical distancing because touch therapies were very important for my recovery last time. Thank you for all your great advice and help. To other tinnitus sufferers, please don't give up hope. If you follow Julian's advice in a calm and measured way, you will get better in time.
Thank you wish you peace , could you share some tips and tools you say? What is “ Touch therapies” you mentioned? Thank you 🙏🙏🙌🏻
These videos do help I've had tinnitus for 2 years now and also thinking about suicide because the tinnitus is so loud I haven't been able to relax in over 2 years watching these videos to help a little bit
Thank you 🙏🏻
Does it go away permanently?
@@Sleep_em Hi there. Mine has gone away permanently for about 80% of the time. When I am tired or stressed it comes back. So I would say I have tinnitus about 20% of the time. The rest of the time I am in silence. I have hearing damage from being in bands and repeated ear infections/grommets.
Thank you! A recent sufferer, I assumed it would require drops, or medicine or surgery but I came across a doctor explaining how it can be eliminated via neuroplasticity. Rewiring the neural networks responsible. Our brains have amazing abilities and we can heal ourselves.
How is it now?
its very true mine had pretty much disappeared went to a loud house party and its been back on and off for the last 2 weeks, this dudes right deep breathing calmness just deletes it for me totally just ignore keep busy. i know everyone will be free of it one day i know it in my heart. stay up people!.

Let me tell you my story. I realised I had tinnitus a year ago before Christmas 2017. Quite simply my world imploded into anxiety and suicidal thoughts. I suffered through this for 8-9 months of constant hell. About 2 months ago I started to stop noticing my tinnitus as much. Then I would go days where I wouldn't think about it. What I'm trying say is that if your new to tinnitus please give it time. Julian is absolutely right in the fact that tinnitus goes away. I still have my tinnitus but it doesn't bother me at all. Your brain is extremely powerful and learns to adapt. Please give it time. You wouldn't sit there and listen to your heartbeat all day, so why would you listen to your tinnitus.
James B Interesting that you mention suicidal thoughts! My health collapsed in the last two years along with my life. The stress and anxiety lately has been horrendous and along with Eustachian tube dis function my left ear has been an absolute nightmare. My GP told me to grin and bear it, it may or may not pass! I have an autoimmune disease which is being treated with a biologic drug which more or less ruins your immune system while it works but exacerbated any small illness ie a cold into a long and painful experience. But it’s always kinda reassuring to know I’m not the only one with these thoughts, rant over
He does not talk about adaptation, if not that they disappeared, how? it's something amazing
Thank you.
Try 19+ years...I have to take sleeping pills. Nerves shot..hair fell out ,teeth fell out, went insane...
Kept holding on praying...
the problem comes around when i want to go to sleep. i dont try to listen to it but its the only thing present so its inevitable to listen to it
essentially the more you focus on it, the louder YOU make it. if you just relax and accept its there but its not a threat, in time you will automatically tune it out. During the day im busy doing so much stuff that i never hear it, but at night, I can finally sleep at night with it being completely quiet, which is when it matters the most.Trust it and be patient, you will hear silence again.
What was the cause of ur tinitus does it went away??
Thank u so much for this comment, it gives hope. God bless u
i currently have it rn and it just appears bc im scared of it/ anxious so im kinda searching for the sound. im learning to accept it and tell myself that its not life threathaning and it goes away. anyways tysm this comforted me a lot

@@altai8778 tbh no but just dont mind it trust me it lowers down and you barely notice it unless you focus on it, hope it helps and good luck
Hi Julian, I just got tinnitus In February. It was shocking to me because I heard so many different sounds in my head as well as the ringing in my left ear. It sounds like my nervous system sparks intermittently. I went through all the stages. I was very scared and was going through the fight or flight stage, anxiety, then depression and lost 15 lbs in 2 weeks it was difficult to sleep. I was also going through a lot of personal difficulties in my family life which made matters worse. I felt all alone. Your videos did help me and things are looking better. I'm gonna be going to tinnitus retraining therapy soon. But I want to thank you for helping people with this terrible affliction.
That's nice to hear mate. I think the best thing to do is as Mr Cowan described, to calm down and not think of it as an enemy.
Hey you get use to it... I have it for like 2 years. When i first heard it i went crazy.. I couldn't focus on anything.. Now I'm 31, and hearing aids to me help! i have two pairs. It's super depressing. My dad had hearing loss, and hearing aids. I'm 31, and I have TMJ, hearing loss, Tinnitus, High Cholesterol ,High blood pressure, Anxiety, doctor told me i was close to having a heart attack... Now after hearing all this all i worry about is death at a young age... . My life couldn't get any worse.
@@joer736 I have tinnitus since 1997. Awful in the beginning and I cope better. I h ave the same issues that you have. Some days it really interferes with my hearing and other days it seems to quiet down
Weather change can make it louder or quiet it down. Take care of yourself and take good B and D vitamins, as this helped me so much. As the better I feel. The better I cope with it to being a non issue. Take care
how are you feeling now ?
@@jasdipkahlon7002 doing ok. I will probably get hearing aides in the near future, as I just cannot hear over the noise in my head at times. Overall fine. For the first ten years, it was quiet.and like I did not have it at all. Then I had a major female surgery and it came back louder than ever and I had a very tough time. Six months later the noise went to a tolerable level. That way ever since. I hear it all the time and am able to ignore it for the most part. Doing well and feel good. Thank you
I am on the American Tinnitus help network and I occasionally get calls, texts, emails or even letter from others who have this. I have talked to some who were considering suicide and those are such difficult calls I try to help others with this.
i did recover like 98% ... i went from crying in a corner and not eating at all to the happiest man in the world .. guys it's all mental ... don't stress about it ( i know it's hard but you have to ignore it and don't try to listen to it try to focus on other things and you need to believe that it will go away ) and good sleep helps very well
and i'll tell you STRESS is the biggest trigger of tinitus
Great to see you back Julian. Always checking for new broadcasts. Thank goodness for you.
My tinnitus started 7 weeks ago, for the first 6 weeks, it was loud, and extremely annoying while laying down, I couldn't hear it throughout the day or doing daily activities, i could only hear it in a quiet room or with my ear on a pillow, but it was like a 7/10.
But now a week later, now into the 7th week.
Its a 3/10 on my pillow or in a quiet room, I will keep this updated throughout the months, and not be 1 of those comments who vanish and never reply to people who are concerned or would like an answer.
But do you know why they never reply? Because there tinnitus is 110% gone, and don't care to.
Remember, we will get better :)
Thanks
How is yours been, I have had mine for about 5 weeks, and I have no idea how it started, any help on lessening the sound?
My tinnitus is still here, after about 4 months now, which I've been told and read online, that 4 months isn't long at all, and could still take another 6-8 more months to see it go away.
I've been to, 2 doctors, 1 ENT and had an MRI.
Everything has been checked, my MRI came back negative, my ears are normal, my hearing is normal, (from the tests I took)
Personally I feel like it has somewhat gotten better, not as loud, its still a good 2/10- 3/10 in a silent room, and if my ears are covered. I'll of course hear it.
But other than that, I cant hear it else.
I do have mild, and I mean mild hyperacusis, my ears have a tiny whistle to them when a fan is on, or anything that blows air fast.
But any other sound I'm completely normal.
But I had the hyperacusis, for about 3 months now, but its so mild, its not bad at all.
I've read and been told, that I still have to wait months.
But I've for what I've done to manage, I've done nothing really, im living a normal life still, I still game, I still use my headsets, but of course at a lower volume, around 30% I still go out and drink with friends. (Not as much, due to COVID)
I still eat whatever I want and do whatever, I have stopped using ear buds though, I use Astro a40s for my headset, so it goes over my ear, but again I use 30% volume for gaming.
I've had no sort of spike, from gaming, or the MRI, or any foods, or liquor, I dont smoke weed or cigarettes, so idk if that might trigger it, but I won't find out lol.
Of course I still have days where I hate it, it is annoying, but its only been 4 months for me.
Again, it can take upwards of 6-12 months for it to completely go away.

How did it became better
@@shakun2828 I did have a nasal procedure but it didn’t cure it. I find the better my sinuses are the lower the sound. I have grown accustomed to it but don’t feel sad about that. It really does fade to background for many. I am moving to a state that has more humidity so I’m expecting my sinuses to do better however it’s not as bad as in the beginning. This video was the start of me improving however. It is a very special message and I truly felt that Jesus the Lord was working through the message. Sometimes, that is the greater message. Apostle Paul had a thorn in his side that he prayed to be removed and the Lord told him…my grace is sufficient for you. I now understand that.
@press rale yes. I use a fan at night and a wave machine in my office but honestly it’s in the background now. If you willfully don’t think about it, let me know how you respond. That was when it faded away a lot for me.
@press rale my first response seems gone so here goes again. I watched this video and realized I needed to give it to the Lord. By Lord I mean Jesus Christ.

I think it really depends on the reason of the tinnitus, mine was due to ear wax impaction, thus once the wax was removed the ringing subsided during the following weeks until it was barely audible in a quiet semi soundproof room. Then there are people who just get it due to stress, disrupting the balance of the nervous system making the brain overcompensate for the hearing loss making the tinnitus more audible. Yet it still goes away when stress levels go back the normal.
Simon Sherbinin hey I went through the same thing had due to ear wax, I was wondering how long did it take
Was your tinnitus loud?
It happened the same to me. I had ear wax, went to a doctor who thoroughly cleaned my ears and the tinnitus volume slowly started to fade... A couple days ago I went through severe stress and anxiety and the tinnitus increased again. I know it's due to stress because it was initially originated in the left ear and then I started hearing it in the right. If I pay attention to it, it changes from one ear to the other. A month ago I didn't have anything like this, everything started with ear wax impaction and high levels of anxiety due to it. I have faith and hope that it will go away.

i got tinnitus from covid..any help with this? also i have headaches and my fingers are numb from covid.. please help
Has anyone’s ever changed? I had the same noises for 5 years and a month ago they changed and I have been panicking when I was once hibituated.. even the new sounds react to the fan noise that I loved to hide it.. I’ve never had a spike before or a change I’ve been praying it goes
one night, I was trying to sleep. the loud in my ear was so powerful that my psychology was getting worse. I was about to go crazy. I prayed desperately. since then, the loud became less and sometimes I don't feel at all.
It happens sometimes its normal
Same, mine is really low than before. But, it's still annoying.
@@jatinderghotra678 tinnitus is not normal.
@BOOMERANG.COM I am sorry to hear that. I hope you get better soon. In my case, prayer worked for me. You can also try to pray. Good luck.

Just keep ur head cool , mind cool , eat properly, don't take stress and ur good to go . Also try to minimise the use of headphones and harsh music don't have headphones on while sleeping,a big no , follow ur passions , hobbies , its just tinnitus it'll go...
Thanks brother for helping me !❤
Thank you for making this video. I’ve had it 6 years but this year has been the worst after a succession of noise and med induced spikes. It was at a 10 now it’s 8 sometimes 7. I’m hoping to further improve over time. I had lowered it and habituated in 2016 (still needed background noise but it didn’t bother me much) and that’s where I hope to be again. Hearing you speak these words, knowing you have first hand experience, is a source of extreme support and comfort during this incredibly difficult time. A video like this is a great reminder for those moments where you feel hopeless/like giving up, and need new perspective. Keep up the great work. 🌟
I am starting again. Had 10 good years after habituation but due to Covid a new sound started in my ear that I a trying to habituate again. Just takes time unfortunately.
I am amazed reading the comments from viewers below in your blogs Julian, saying how quick their Tinnitus cleared, yet there are not many who have said that had tinnitus as long as myself - Over 25 years I have had this Tinnitus, so I do not believe it will go way!
I understand how you feel. I had tinnitus for 20 years before it started to back off. Craniosacral therapy helped mine get better more than anything. I never would have believed I could go back into silence again after such a long and horrendous journey with loud tinnitus. Often mindset is one of the big things that needs shifting in people. Our beliefs are powerful things!
I agree! Thank you so much, Julian. I know tinnitus can heal, and that we can move on from it. I have no doubt about this.
This is absolutely the best description on how to live with tinnitus i have ever heard. I have had it for 6 years and 75% hearing loss in my left ear. And once i was able to ignore it and realize i wasn't going to die from it, i was able to manage it. Mine is always still there but i have gotten very good at ignoring it unless i have a full blown panic attack which is rare these days. There IS hope people i promise.
Haha same bro i discovered it a month ago looks I was actually ignoring to the point where It didn't even bother in complete silence or shit
I love you Juian...you are saving my life
Kathy McDevitt ......good to hear these words from Julian. I can testify to all Julian says Kathy , I had 3 days of real peace and true silence ... and as you know I usually don’t hear my tinnitus during the day . . . I hope this have given you some much needed hope and encouragement. Let’s talk again soon. Best wishes Ade.
WATCH LIAM BOHEM HE IS CURING IT !
Love you too
Thank you so much for spreading this positive message as there is far too much negativity out there and lack of knowledge on the subject. Helping me and so many others recover and fully let go of T.
You have saved my soul so many times.. I thought I would die because there was no hope, you gave that to me.. How can we ever repay you.. 😊♥️
julie you become my friend,fb pm
How are you doing now ?
It is possible! I had it for a few years (because i couldn't stop thinking about it). It was very loud and most of the time there were 6 different sounds. But now I don't have it anymore, only in stressfull times it's there a littttle bit, but I don't care. I know what to do.. calm my system. I know it will go away again.
The thing that helped me the most was changing my relation with tinnitus on deeper levels. So I changed the way I thought about it, I stopped talking about it in the beginning, I stopped doing my best to ignore it because thats a negative emotion too.. I just said to myself: it's ok that this is here for the time being, but I go on with whatever I'm doing.
And the second thing that helped me the most was calming my whole system. Recognizing that I was stressed even when I didn't felt it that way. Now when I look back I think: wow I was really stressed. Because my baseline changed.
So changing your relationship with tinnitus and calming your nervoussystem.. that will help you!
Thank you so much for your videos! Your videos really help me to move on and not to give up on myself.

Your videos are very comforting, please always make ones like this, If I feel a bit of anxiety about still hearing it, I bring yours up and it helps ,me to relax. I had it bad two months ago, and did body based help as much as I could , massages, and chiropractor. Meditation and 10 min of tai chi a day. I have been getting more rest, more salt baths, taking my vitamins. walks and more walks. I have been under a lot of stress, over the last few years. I needed to learn to take care of my body, and mind. I really appreciate that I found you.
Thank you so much. I had my tinnitus since June 2019 due to flu medication I was using. I have now ignored it and is gradually fading away.
Glad to hear it. Wishing you a steady on-going recovery. Best wishes Julian
How is your tinnitus
When I first experience severe tinnitus it was so bad I was not sure I was ever going to survive. I read books about people that recovered and spoke with successful people that still carried on with their lives.
It helped me believe and eventually after 1-2 years I got to the point where I could manage and I forgot I had tinnitus for 15 years almost.
I started watching this video because I got back into that distressed feeling partially because the ringing had either comeback or perhaps got louder… I started to have those feelings of dispair once again.
I had tinnitus 11 years ago after a car accident. It was a pretty bad time and took me about 8 months for my brain to habituate the sound. I had not noticed it over the past 10 years but after getting Covid a few months back I developed a new high pitched sound. I am now back to habituation again and only a few months in but using the same techniques again, neuro modulation, meditation and sound therapy. I know it will get better but will take time.
How are you now?

Support group in our country for this type of condition is rare, I could not find anyone to talk about it. I've had it for almost a year and some days are tough. Its good to hear these words, it gives me something to look forward to.
When I got sudden onset of T in 2013 I found comfort in your videos Julian. You became the voice of reason and it helped me trough a very hard period. I still have T but have habituated somewhat. Still wish for a medical cure of course but in a better place allover. I just want you to know that your doing A FAR better job at spreading facts about T than any medical doctor I've ever met on my path.

For all who struggling with tinnitus, don't give up,you got this, patience is all you need and it will gone after it ❤❤
I’ve had it since preschool age. I remember pressing my ear against my mom’s ear and asking her if she could hear it. Have had it all my life and started using a sound device to be able to sleep for about 15 years now. Recently after years of stressful life situations I have noticed an increase in sound that even the sound device can’t mask. I’m 67 now and am trying to search a way to get rid of it for good. This is one of the first UA-cam sites that popped up. Finally hopeful! Thanks for sharing!

I have had tinnitus since before I knew what it was. When I was a child I thought everybody had it. I forgot I had it FOR YEARS! It didn’t affect me FOR YEARS until traumatic experiences started happening, and it was all I heard all the time. I’m able to go the full day without noticing it. Now that I’m sick and having anxiety it’s back which is why I’m watching this video, but I’m filled with hope
Whe I first noticed about 8 years ago I was in panic but now I hardly notice it and choose to ignore it.
How did u make it quieter?
@@aestheticalien273 dont think about it try and work out
You’ve nailed it-thank you! I’ve been a guitarist for over 20 years, starting at age 14, and I’m pretty sure I’ve had tinnitus for years. Back then, I never used ear protection during practice, spent a decade touring non-stop, and worked mixing bands with exposure to high frequencies. There’s no doubt I damaged my hearing at some point along the way.
What’s interesting is that I never actually *noticed* the tinnitus until I saw a TikTok video of someone describing their experience with it and how terrible it was. Right after watching, I suddenly became aware of a high-pitched sound in my left ear. It was as if the video flipped a switch in my brain! Of course, it’s unlikely the video itself caused the tinnitus-it was playing through my phone’s speaker, far from my ear. Instead, I think it brought my attention to something that had likely been there all along.
As you pointed out, once you’re aware of tinnitus, you start paying attention to it, and it feels impossible to ignore. The psychological aspect is huge. Even though this sound has been bugging me for the past 10 days, I’m fortunate it hasn’t disrupted my life too much. Falling asleep can be tricky, but I’ve always fallen asleep with background noise like music or the TV, and I’ve lived in big, bustling cities, so constant sound doesn’t faze me.
I know it’ll get better with time, but it’s fascinating how much the mind amplifies the experience. While tinnitus is very real, our awareness of it-and how we process it mentally-seems to play an enormous role.
You may find my app www.quietenapp.com helpful as it talks a lot about how to shift your focus off the ringing and how to let go of tinnitus. Building in a body-based focusing element is crucial for coming out of fight or flight and settling the nervous system down.
Julian, thank you so much for providing me with hope, which lead me to overcome my anxiety. This really is a stepping stone for me overcoming Tinnitus.
I'm 23 years old and I'm suffering from tinnitus before a month and I was thinking that it would be very dangerous for me because it is being very irritating for me but after watching this video my hope came again and I'm trying to not think about my tinnitus
I suffered from depression for over 5 years. This year was FINALLY the year I beat it, I was so happy because my life was going great... then I got tinnitus, maybe I had it before, I don't know, but I realized I have it only a few weeks ago and my depression came back, along with a deep sense of darkness, hopelessnes, just knowing that it has no cure was awful for me. I started to block it from my mind, it's still there 24/7 but I'm learning to block it, these last two days I've been hearing silence again, if I "amplify my ears" I hear that endless "eeeeeeeeee" but when I focus really hard, I just don't listen to it. Mine is LOUD. I am currently in my room, it's night time (it was scary to me whenever the night came) and I don't listen to it.
I was also suffer these problem dear
how are u doing now?
@@RaphaWasHere definitely better. of course it's there 24/7 but I learned to ignore it and I'm living normally now, sometimes I can hear it during the day even with cars passing by, but it doesn't affect my mood anymore and I just ignore it and block it so my mind can't hear it anymore, it works fine :) I can hear silence at night.
I protect my ears from loud noises so it won't get worse

@@nadialexajow is your tinniyus u sleep in silence
I had Tinnitus in 2013 was horrendous as a teenager like all of sudden all the joy taken away from you . Went to an ENT seem unbothered gave me just ear drop. Then i learnt to live with it and eventually with time it started to stayed low and unbothered. But then it started again this year, i was not taking good care of my health, all of the junk food, the drinks, neck pain from studying and working. I used to take cold shower exercise meditated but then i stop this year or was not consistent
I hope you are doing better now
It's true, it does get better and we really need to remind ourselves that. I've had tinnitus previously in my mid to late teens. Luckily back then it wasn't excruciating but it was always there. I found things like having my fan on near me or falling asleep to effective ASMR videos helped tremendously and eventually it just went away. If I sat in my room completely silent sometimes I could notice it a little but it was never to the point of causing anxiety and the smallest sound could easily distract me from it if my tinnitus were there. But it really had come to a point when I entirely forgot I even had it.
Recently I went to a concert and it was insanely loud so now I have the most mindnumbing ringing pitch in my right ear. I've been to multiple doctors, I even went to the ER because I haven't been able to sleep in over a week now. It's to the point where most of my old tricks no longer work but instead agitate it further. However, there are moments where I've found sweet spots and listening to certain soothing things in certain soothing positions that can both distract me and not agitate the tinnitus further. I've been stuck in a loop where I'm very anxious because of the tinnitus and the tinnitus flares because I'm anxious. These types of videos are what we really need to hear because it does feel like it's slowly getting better again but it's easy to fall back into the rabbit hole of the despair of thinking this is forever.
Hi! Did you wear ear protection to the concert?
How are you now, please reply 🙏 Did it get better?

My tinnitus is an absolute nightmare since a gig with my band almost 2 weeks ago. I've tried all excercices and massages found online but nothing helps at all. It's a constant high pitched sound along with static noise inside my head all of the time. I pray that it will get better somehow cause I'm not sure how I'll be able to live with this for the rest of my life...

@@ernestwilson235 yesss
I literally self induced my own tinnitus a few days ago. I knew intuitively that I myself has caused this. I have had of course hear the ringing before but no emotional reaction thought nothing of it so it went into the background naturally. But this time I had an over action in which I can see it created with my attention. Interesting. This video is the most helpful and gives me a confidence that everything is fine. I can begin to let this pass. It’s like my mind had to push the limits just for understanding sake. I’ll subscribe to your channel so I can get the correct view on this. Reading all this garage info online didn’t help a bit and made it unnecessarily worse.

I just wanna say that I 've had tinnitus for 3 years now and it has been really bad sometimes. So one day I went to a doctor for my neck pain and I asked him about the tinnitus and he said"You need calm down,don't worry about it.Its part of your nerves system".I took some pills to keep me calm, nothing too serious just some herbs,and now my tinnitus is little to none..And it's not because of the pills,but because I didn't care anymore.Thats the whole point. You just gotta don't give fuck .I know it's hard,but that's the way to go,ofcorse if the source is your nerves system which in most people is.
Good luck......!
what pills bro
It hard to not give a fuck when mines tickle me when it get really loud
Yours is loud ? 0-10?
😊 thank you I had tinnitus for many years on and off the McCain chronic loud and consistent for many months then all the sudden I couldn't hear it anymore it was very low tolerable and great I can sit in silence that lasted for many months then all the sudden I start listening to loud music again in my ears with earbuds for several weeks now all of a sudden the tinnitus is high pitched again for 2 weeks now I'm praying the pitch goes down again I will not listen to loud music in my ears again not sure if that triggered it or not blessings to all and may God give us all strength this new year and healing❤🙏

Hello guys
My experience on tinnitus
I have tinnitus for 3 months
I was drinking 4 coffee a day smoking shisha 3 times a week
Beginning was terrible very laugh
Now it almost gone
I have for 2 days vol 2 from 10
And it stop for 3 days to 0
After I did change my diet
I stop completely coffee
I start eating organic food
Drink 3 litres of water
Eat 3 to 5 fruits a day
Sleep 8 hours
Cute the sugar
Most import don’t stop your life if you have tinnitus do double exercise run 4 days a week
After I done all that my tinnitus get 80% better and improve a lot don’t bother me
I just came here to share because 3 months ago I was terrified
Thank Julian’s yours videos helps me a lot
To All. I had Tinnitus for 1 year between 2016 and 2017. I was free for one year than I went to a concert and started off again in June 2018. I am fighting with it again. But guess what, during Xmas holiday I was really off work and had great sleep, like, wow, and this was just after a week where I had a massive spike due to a short session with a Trumpet. I came back to work, and now it has spinned out again. so stress,stress,stress.that's the key factor. and yes - you can get rid of it. If I knew I would have not ever entered that Pub. but now I am still positively determined to get rid of it again... yes even after 18 months.
update ?
Update please ,,,😅😅
Thank you for your words ❤️❤️
After my first visit to the ENT I felt worse because I felt helpless.. he poured so much trash about how there is no cure and I have to learn to live with it.. that night my tinnitus was so much worse.. after watching these videos I feel so much better
I believe the advice that Julian is sharing with us is true. I have suffered terribly for 9 years with severe tinnitus and I am now experiencing days with total silence. Not every single day of the week but I look forward to the time when complete silence will rule again. My improvements have been measurable and for that I am grateful beyond words. .
Corey, what did you do to have this success? Congratulations.
@@ffichera9 That answer would not be a short one! I am going to write a book as this subject is incredibly complex. But I will give you the "Coles Notes" version. Tinnitus can be caused by 100's if not 1000's of reasons. And once you get tinnitus it can be exacerbated by completely different reasons. A quick example. My tinnitus came about by an ear infection but that was only the beginning. It has persisted for very different reasons. In short, you will have to reclaim complete body health. Remove all toxins from your body including any heavy metal toxicity you may not even be aware of. You have to feed the body properly ( organic food and a low carb diet ) and eliminate all stimulants, such as any sugar, alcohol, coffee , etc. 9 hours of sleep every night, and daily exercise is essential to the healing process. Try to reduce stress as much as possible. Stress is your enemy. There are many other things but if you start with the suggestions I have provided you will be on the road to silence again. Best of luck.
What did you do?
@@labinotzeqiri3303 I did 10,000 things. I researched tinnitus endlessly for literally years and I ended up having to create my own regime because I couldn't find the answers anywhere. I can say that tinnitus is merely an alarm bell going off in your head telling you that something is very wrong in your body. It will take a lot of personal investigation to determine what things are wrong and where you need to make changes in your lifestyle to health yourself and restore a proper balance in your body. I would start by examining your diet. I would recommend a ketogenic diet with organic foods if you can afford this. I would eliminate any kind of stimulants such as caffeine , sugar and alcohol. I would make sure you get fully 9 hours of sleep every day of the week. Get a good exercise regime daily. Avoid stress as much as possible. Make sure you are hydrated with good water. If you have any mercury amalgam fillings in your teeth, get them removed by a qualified dentist who uses the proper protocol. Above all, don't let anyone tell you that you can't silence your tinnitus. It may take a long time to get it to calm down, but you can achieve that goal if you make the necessary lifestyle changes. You can heal yourself. Best of luck.
Hi Corey, what was your cause of T and do you think just with time it healed?
julian is a gentleman guys ,he does not have to help anyone,,thanks julian for your help
My mother sent this video to me. I’ve been suffering from tinnitus since last Tuesday and have been to 2 ENTs. One thinks it is because of stress and possible ear infection. I’ve been given antibiotic-steroid ear drops. Honestly I don’t know if this will go away and if I’ll be able to live with this sound in my left ear for the rest of the ear. This is all that I’m thinking about. Haven’t been able to sleep in the last 5 days. Oh god, I don’t know if I have the mental strength to overcome this
Is it gone
How is your tinnitus if u plz answer
Any update pleaase
I have an aunt that had tinnitus and she got cured by drinking a Chinese herb called “Cistanche Deserticola”. I myself also have tinnitus so I asked my doctor about this but my doctor said while I can take it, shouldn’t do anything because my aunt tinnitus cause and mine are different. She had it due to her older age and other contributing factors, while mine, came and comes from anxiety. I myself take Gingko Biloba from a German brand for 3 weeks but I honestly cannot say if I’m getting better. I just wanted to share my aunt experience, im not recommending anything since im not a doctor, just sharing since it might help other people. It’s good that everyone that has this problem share their own experience because who knows, might help someone else, and that’s already already a blessing. Stay strong!
Thank you Julian. Hope is such a powerful tool. I am still on my journey. Taking the emotion out of tinnitus has been a challenge but it is getting better. I’ve been going to a craniosacral therapist who is also a healer. She has helped me a lot. I also continue to go to my psychologist and practice yoga which is so lovely and calming and go for regular message with my sister. It’s all about slowing down and doing self care. These things I learned from YOU! Thank you.
Joanne
“Massage”
Massage is the message:)
sleepy rivers I chased every tool to try to get my tinnitus to quiet down. Craniosacral, accupuncture, massage, meditation,yoga. I found the volume did not go down right away. As Julian says it’s a process. Even though I just wanted it to be gone. It just made me more stressed out when it didn’t quiet enough down. I am slowly having more quieter days. Days that the sound is in the background. I still have loud days (like today).
I find all the tools help and just trying to relax and take care of myself. Stress is a big trigger for me.
Hope this rambling help. You are not alone.

If you are ever in London please come for a craniosacral therapy session. Sorry to hear the activation has not yet come down enough.
I guess you just forgot to try "moving on" and / or ignoring it... (extreme sarcasm intended) I have a very close friend who said Lipoflavonoid worked about 80% to 90% for them and I will be trying that. They said you HAVE to maintain the daily dose without fail or you end up starting back at square one. The source is very trusted so that's what I'm going to try.

I’ve tried pretty much every technique I’ve ever heard of. I don’t have panic attacks or freak out from it, but believe me, it’s there every minute of every day and has been for over 40 years. And it’s LOUD!
I hope you have these essentials that tip the balance in the right direction: 1 weekly hands-on work that drops you into a deep state of calm and stillness - I recommend craniosacral therapy, 2 evening yawning sessions and relaxing self-facials to help free up the ear nose and throat system and trigger the parasympathetic de-stressing response in this whole level of the central nervous system that brings you out of fight or flight, 3 an ability to self-soothe - so instead of going up into stressful/catastrophic thinking and reactivity in the head and eares, you can calm yourself down and divert the attention away from the tinnitus. You need to leave your hearing alone and let it settle all by itself without you going in there with your focus and rattling it around with fear and anxiety. When you feel safe and relaxed and stop focusing on it , it backs off. This is true for 97% of people that get tinnitus. The 3% that get stuck with it for a while are generally anxious, overwhelmed or stressed out or they have a meticulous, perfectionist, obsessive mind that won't leave it alone in my experience.
Recovery is possible, I had terrible tinnitus but I learnt to just live on with it in about a month and ignored it ever since. But during an avid trip I realised I have it, and it sucks I gotta learn to ignore it again but it's also helpful in a way because now I'm thinking about ways of protecting my ears, which is a very vital organ for me. Stay safe!
Hi there, the recovery from tinnitus looks almost the same as in case of overcoming an anxiety disorder (the latter striked me as hell for 2 years) I was suffering, I got depressed etc. ... life was over [I thought] ... anyway I kept on focussing on how to pay my rent, finishing studies etc. = as soon as I stopped caring about it with my brain / attention it became simple unimportant ... end of story: I fully recovered from severe anxiety / panic attacks ... same goes to tinnitus
How are you doing now?
Truly appreciate your videos and your positive words.
I honestly believe tinnitus can be cured because tinnitus is not a illness it's self. Tinnitus is a symptom of a bigger issue.
Certain factors just trigger it.
It is shown in studies that when your doctor tells you that there is no hope for something you're going through that it will send you through a negative spiral and can be bad for your mental state while going through the issue you are dealing with.
I'm tired of doctors filling our minds with negativity, there's one thing with simply not understanding in depth but even so if a doctor isn't fully aware of everything about a certain issue they can't say that there's no cure.
here's a few suggestions for relieving tinnitus at home
Ensure you eat plenty of fruit and vegetables.
Make sure you have enough vitamin C
Use herbs which cleanse the body eg milk thistle
Use herbs with infection fighting properties eg dandelion root and burdock and others including echinacea
(I learned these and the reasons they work from Dajon Ear Relief site )
Thank you Julian gracias! WHAT I JUST HEARD FROM YOU IS TRUE. IT'S HAPPENING TO ME . I DO NOT HEAR IT SOMETIMES BECAUSE WHY BOTHER TO HEAR IT IF IT DOES NOT CAUSE ME ANY HARM. 😊
My Tinnitus went away as I was watching this video, hmmm??
I started getting really bad tinnitus, drank some Emergen-C last night not thinking anything of it but significantly reduced the sound for a few hours. I'm thinking it could be the zinc or maybe some combo of vitamins it contains. Not saying this will work for everyone but hopefully it might help someone out there. Just drank another cup again and same results. I'm going to keep doing this and maybe even try zinc supplements. Looked online and there have been correlations between tinnitus and low zinc levels.
I had Tinitus for over a month probably due to medical drugs Asaphen and Rivasa
The ringing was completely constant day and night.
I barely slept 2/3 hrs a night.
I did everything you said plus all the audio wave sounds for Tinnitus.
I saw a specialist for that but came back with no magic pill.
After doing lots of research, I started taking 500mg of Niacine of Niacinamide in the morning, before going to bed and at 2:00 Am with the spikes were peaking.
Everyday also took 150mg of Citrate of Magnesium, 25mg of Zinc, 1mg of Folic Acid, 1200mcg of B12, 250mg of B6.
Since taking this in my case the rigging started to diminished last Friday to the point that it has stop ringing since the past 2 days.
I am not a doctor nor can I explain this yet it worked for me.
From hell I am starting entering paradise
Thanks for your tips especially on the negative loop.
You gave me hope.
tichan karma - Did you buy your supplements from a pharmacy?
Yes I did. I sleep now 7 to 8 hours a night. Rarely the ringing happens so faint to a point you wonder if you have it.
Important cut the coffee and the tea
Did you stop taking the drugs you thought were causing the tinnitus? I have to take blood pressure pill with a beta blocker so I can't stop taking it. Tried once for two days and had heart problems. I used to be able to mask it but now its so loud I hear it over everything.
how about you these days after years ?
All of us will find peace, we're in this together 🙏
Hi Julian, I only found you yesterday and I’ve already watched about 15 videos of yours 😂. You have such a calm wonderful way of speaking, I’m sure your advice is going to help me immensely. I’m going to see my cranial osteopath today, it’s never dawned on me to tell her I have tinnitus, so I’m now looking forward to what she might do once I’ve told her, Thank you!
I am so disturbed about my tinnitus that I am unable to eat. But after hearing that it can be heal, I am so glad. I will be full of joy to be heal.thanks for your video.
Please give an update
you really help me alot . i purchased a few of your books and i listen to your videos often
Bros giving me hope
Thank you for being so encouraging.
I think this is for people who develop tinnitus later in life. I have had it since I was a small kid. I don't remember NEVER having it, and I am 61 years old. As a kid, I never realized it was not normal because it had always been there.
I"ve had it for 40 years, it hasn't gone away and I heard nothing about the "how". If it goes away by ignoring it, it isn't tinnitus.
I think it's really depending on what kind of tinnitus you have.
I know someone who got that after a blast effect in a terrorist attack in the 80s.
It never get away. No serious person having worked in this field would tell him "if you don't focus on, it will go" in 2019 ! His internal ear is permanently injured. It's not a discomfort. Nobody can get used to hear constantly a ring covering the sound of the metro or a train in the head. That's the level of the thing he lives with.
He survived... with all the consequences that it means.
Wether he focuses on it or not, it's there and it's annoying.
Other cases are not due to such a dramatic event but it doesn't mean that if you don't focus on, you won't notice it. It's true only for some people. Not for all.
Some people can live with it. Some cannot. It's not a matter of perception. It's a matter of how you ear are affected or not.
I have been through the worst week of my life, and my tinnitus is not really that loud, I’m just really anxious and OCD, and you know how much this can make it worse. Seeing so many people stating that it gets better is giving me a little of hope. After just one week it’s a little better, I hope that it will go away but if not I hope habituation will be real and that I will have my life back. I can actually sleep without too much effort, I can even take naps. I really hope it will get better with time.

@@JulianCowanHill I downloaded your app and it looks great, you seem so calm and wise that your words give me a little of solace. I’m trying to think that with time everything will really be fine, and I will follow your advices also because you are giving positive vibes and hope. If so many people say that they can live very well with tinnitus at the point it’s almost gone I hope it will be the same for me. Thank you so much for what you do, I’ll write here again if something changes for the best.
My inner ear was damaged by a mine blast. When I hear loud noises it goes static and hurts. It rings so loud I can think. I have had it for over 10 years
Julian I watch this everyday to help reassure myself I will heal from this. I am saving my coins to have a session with you as well. Blessings be upon you, thank you for your videos
Glad this is helping. If you download my app www.quietenapp.com
and go to the audio section, there are reassurances there that people find really helpful. There is a lot of information there that will help you make sense of this condition and help teach you that this is a very changeable condition. Once you know how it works it becomes common sense what helps you get better. Hope this helps. Best wishes, Julian
My body is contantly shaking and I feel like a deer in head headlights. My ears are 10/10... I’m freaking out yo. No one believes me. This isn’t how I planned on spending my 20s...
Sounds like you are going in and out of the fight or flight and freeze response. Ideally find a Craniosacral Therapist who has done a shock and trauma training. But most experience and good body-based therapist can help you process this shock can help your system settle.
Any updates? I hope you are doing better now
My tinnitus was awful for months. I would say 9/10 as i thankfully had lower sound days as a alight respite. I couldn't see how I would be able to cope with this for the rest of my life. Thankfully the level went down to a 2/10 after a few months and I have fully habitualised to it. I can easily sleep with no white noise. And its no bother sitting in a quiet room. So so happy ❤ it is possible!
What did you do?
thanks for spreading hope, every single one who suffered from tinntius needs positve people like you for getting better
Thank you pal.
Hope is a beautiful thing.
