My quick story, I came down with Tinnitus in February of this year a few weeks after having Covid. I remember the night it started at 3:00 AM. I woke up from a sound sleep with a loud high pitched sound and I was freaking out. I couldn’t stop this noise and I didn’t know what it was. I should mention I already suffer from GAD so anxiety level went straight to a 10. I started searching on the internet and CZcams to find out what was going on? I found Dr Ben’s videos and was relieved to hear positive information and comments from the videos. I was relieved to find people recover from this and some learn to live with it without interfering in their lives. I also felt I wasn’t alone with this issue. Next day, I got a hearing test, and was told that I had hearing loss and that is what was causing my Tinnitus. I asked what can I do and was told basically nothing. I asked how long would it last and the audiologist said it would probably never go away. I was losing my mind at this point with anxiety. I heard about sound therapy in a Video and I made an appointment and purchased hearing aids since I had some loss. The hearing aids have built in Tinnitus masking and its controlled through Blue Tooth on my phone. My anxiety was still out of control and effecting my mental health. So I started working Treble Health and Dr May. I started getting better but it was slow and has taken several months to get my anxiety down, but I have been able to with help from Dr May and Dr Ben’s videos. Dr Ben offers his videos with a lot of great information for free and I am grateful to him for doing that for those of us who suffer from this health issue. Doctors here in South Carolina have no idea what to do to help I have found. So working with Treble Health was my only choice I felt and I am glad I did. Working one on one with someone especially who also suffers from Tinnitus was of great help for me. Dr May helped track progress and give me information for helping with Spikes, Anxiety, and general well being were invaluable. I have progressed to the point in the recovery chart where I am a solid 3 with some attributes of category 4. I have some days with no sound, and some where it’s still loud but it doesn’t effect my mental health anymore. Sorry, this is longer than I planned I just wanted to say thank you to Dr Ben, Dr May and all the staff at Treble Health. You are helping many people who do not have help with regards to this malady.
Appreciate your comment, Gary! :) Be well.
I also had my tinnitus due to covid. I was losing my mind until I watched this video. It's a huge relief.
Me too, after covid I got tinnitus
This "four stages of habituation" table is the most usefull information you ever provided. Completely true and accurate. In a compact albeit detailled format, it gives key informations on how tinnitus perception is going to evolve, showing that ability to cope with tinnitus will greatly improve over time, which is a much needed positive message for tinnitus newbies. Currently, i navigate within stage 3, hopefully heading to stage 4. Thanks Ben for your effort.
So glad it was helpful. You're welcome, raoul.
Thank you, your videos have helped me a lot and helped me deal with my tinnitus and hyperacusis.
I've had it since February this year, a very high pitch sound and very sensitive to sounds in my right ear, and I've been going through a rough time because of this. I found out that stress was the cause for me, my hearing is good according to my ENT doctor. It's getting better and better for a month and a half now. I can still hear it, but I don't react anxiously to it anymore. Most of the time I don't pay attention to it anymore, and sometimes the tinnitus is gone for a while. Sound therapy has helped me a lot (earplugs with different kind of audio, but also just music), but also information on the internet (not negative stories, but useful info and also positive stories), and CZcams channels like this one.
Thanks again Dr. Thompson, you mean a lot to the tinnitus community!
And to everyone who suffers from this condition: hang on in there! Be patient, you get used to it, just give it time. And once you get used to it, the fear goes away, believe me!
Greetings from the Netherlands (Europe) 👋
Hi CS, thank you for the comment. We are glad to know that our videos have helped you. Enjoy exploring our other CZcams videos, as well as blog articles on our Treble Health website.
All thanks to #drituatinnitusdoc the buzzing sound in my ear has finally stop.. Life is back again, thanks Dr
Thank you for these videos that give us who suffer with tinnitus both hope and help dealing with it on a daily basis. I purchased your sound maskers in May and have been using them ever since. My tinnitus is slowly changing for the better by daily using sound therapy. Again thank you for all you do for this community.
Really can't thank you enough, how dedicated you are to your work and this channel, and to so many people suffering from this. I have given the name of your channel to a surgeon I met last week, he's helping me to eliminate possible medical causes for my pulsatile tinnitus, getting a brain scan next week. This surgeon also has tinnitus, he got it after a Corona vaccination, he was trying different methods too but I hope he will be helped with your channel too. Never hurts to know more and you're the leading expert for me!
Appreciate your comment, Rain! Thank you. :)
I love my tinnitus. I’m a musician and my high pitch noise ( only left ear ) is in the key of C and I’m able to harmonize my brain waves and make music in my head…….nothing stops the noise. Rather it changes during the day depending on situations. Also sometimes it seems to go away but it’s there..just resting a little quietly. Some people have it real bad with different noises I’m lucky mine is a pain but manageable. I get help falling asleep listening to rain falling videos and I’ve just found one that uses crickets and that was very good. Listening to the Rosary video helps too…
Thank you for sharing your tinnitus journey, Jerry!
I play guitar i have tinnitus and i did alot of loud auto body work and the amp, lowd concerts. I just dont worry about it and i some times do a music therapy to sleep. I also have a constant pitch thats pretty high but have not tried to get into sync with the tone pitch of it. Might give that a try. Main thing is dont let it get you uptight if possible or it gets worse. I am maybe stage 3 habituation.
I'm exactly the as you fella....middle c as well. I'm not alone 😊
I had learned to mostly ignore T long ago. However lately with my stress level I have aggravated my TMJ syndrome, which has made the T much more bothersome and has made me connect the pain in my jaw with the T. Sound therapy has helped.
Mine is E flat.
I noticed something with my tinnitus. When I think positive thoughts such as concentrating on things that have been highlights in my life I noticed the tinnitus is reduced. I also noticed when I keep my salt in take down
I also noticed when I get 7-8 hours sleep I try to keep my protein intake reduced towards the evening and not eat within two hours of sleep. Of course exercise is important or doing errands around the house. There is some days where I shut the noise off in the house and I don’t hear my tinnitus at all. But when it’s really buzzing it’s buzzing. I believe we have a mechanism we have the ability to reduce this is just an example . I would think the best way to reduce tinnitus is I remember years ago they talked about sound wave therapy where they could take sound waves and Counteract noise coming out of machinery. Years ago there was a company called noise cancellation technologies. They purchased Freeport copper mines. The symbols were NCTI And FCX. I heard NCT I might have purchased the copper mines to make the mini motors that create the sound waves that counteract the noise. I don’t know what happened to it whatever happened to that technology but could you imagine if they had a device like that
Thank you again for your sincere love and concern for your patients !
You're welcome, Chuck! Be well.
I am 65, have had chronic tinnitus for about 20 years since a 1x Loud Noise Exposure Incident. Continue to seek relief. Enjoy your videos. Appreciate your work.
Thank you, J C! Enjoy exploring our other CZcams videos, as well as blog articles on our Treble Health website.
Hi Doctor, Thanks for your continuous help and support, I am from India I want to consult with you for tinnitus.
Always welcome, Dharmendra. Feel free to contact our team at Treble Health and we can do our best to help you.
Four stages I’m finding out depends on if I have a head cold or lack of sleep. I can be at 3 but can go back to 1 depending on how I feel.
Very interesting. Just how loud or quiet are maskers supposed to be? Does one have the ability to control the volume?
I love your videos doctor. I have tinnitus from 2018 following a rear end collision. I have done a lot of research and self-experimentation. The one thing I do not like to hear however, is using another noise or sound to cover an existing noise. this forces us to deal with 2 noises. I have found a few fixes over time and my tinnitus has become manageable and I have even experienced a few hours of silence here and there. Thank you for your efforts. Marco.
Thanks for the comment, Marco! Appreciate it. :)
You all are awesome!!
This was a great video, it got to the main point quickly without being 20 plus minutes long with a lot of unnecessary filler. Much appreciated from this long time tinnitus sufferer.
Glad you enjoyed it, Karl! Enjoy exploring our other CZcams videos, as well as blog articles on our Treble Health website.
Thank you for another informative video. I do find it humorous that the refrigerator hum is listed as a non threatening sound. I have an ancient refrigerator and my tinnitus sounds a lot like my refrigerator. A little bit louder but pretty close. I find brown noise works best for me.
unfortunately my tinnitus got worse trying the hearing aids. i wish they would hare worked but i am one of the unlucky ones.
Sorry to hear that, Jason.
Thank you for this video. My maskers are in now and I'm listening to the frogs.
You're welcome, Dale! Glad it was helpful.
Please, is it possible to habituate to loud, persistent tinnitus (I can hear it over just about anything, 24/7)? My tinnitus was already bad enough (due to high frequency hearing loss) and now it has gotten louder (after Covid), so I am feeling quite hopeless and disheartened.. :( I am scared what the rest of my life with this condition will be like and if I can handle it..
I suffer from tinnitus starting a few weeks ago due to lifelong narcissistic abuse Will I have a chance to ever heal?
Hi No Name, you asked some good personalized questions here. My answer depends on more information that I do not yet know about your history. Feel free to contact our team at Treble Health and we can do our best to help you.
I'm an almost 73 yrs old practitioner of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi's Transcendental Meditation, from Finland. Been doing TM for almost 45 years now, more or less regularly. Have a mild tinnitus now, prolly somewhat worsened mainly by a mild Corona virus infection, because am a so called pure-blood. Seem to recall having read in Valitut Palat ('chosen bits', Finnish version of Readers Digest) that in some American school for deaf kids, almost 38% of them were Scorpios by Sun sign, when there "should" be some 8 percent of those. Well, that was, I think, over 40 years ago, so I might misremember somewhat...I myself am a Scorpio, both by Sun and Ascendant, and, furthermore, have Pluto, the second ruler of Scorpio quite near my MC (medium coeli, mid-heaven). I guess there are no statistics of the horoscope signs (mainly Sun signs) of people with (disturbing) tinnitus.
Thank you so much for these videos
You are so welcome, Janet!
I went to a concert on June 9th this year. It was louder than I expected, and I ended up with tinnitus for around 2 1/2 months. It was slowly starting to subside on it's own, when I contracted Covid. After about two weeks with covid, the tinnitus came back, much to my dismay. I haven't spoken to my doctor about it yet. I'll give it another week or so.
Sometimes it can be very distracting and bothersome. Other times it's tolerable. Should I seek treatment or wait it out?
All thanks to #drituatinnitusdoc the buzzing sound in my ear has finally stop.. Life is back again, thanks Dr
While specific frequency matters it goes alothe ng with pitch. The high pitch whine of some therapy tracks might work for some but CZcams view numbers midtones and lower. I've also found that slight undulation in pitch keeps me on point. My mind/brain dishes up mariachy band or big jazz band, so I need sound tracks that smooth out the cacophony. If it matters to anyone my tinnitus is due to a powerful side effect from a bipolar medication I stopped taking 10 years ago. These days I only hear it when it is very very quiet around me.
Dr. Ben is it possible that in flight or fight mode tinnitus gets few times louder than it was before?
You have to pay for answers😅
oops, i’m definitely on stage 1 :/
hope i reach stage 4 one day but i dont have a lot of hope bc i have a lot of anxiety and my mental health isn’t the best.
I’ve had tinnitus for 6 months now in my right ear and i was about on stage 2/3 but since a week ago i’ve had a mental dip and my anxiety has spiked and now my tinnitus is constant, i can’t stop noticing it and i hope that i manage to get back to stage 2/3 as i once was.
When i went outside my tinnitus practically disappeared but that isn’t the case now sadly. This does however tell me that it is possible to go back, that it won’t always be the same.
Can’t wait for the day i reach stage 4 otherwise i just want to became deaf in my right ear.
how are you now?
Thank you for this. I specifically liked hearing that I should get sound treatment now, instead of waiting. As a 32 year old, I have feared that if I got it now, my brain might get used to the therapy's effect then essentially become immune to it, with a long life still ahead to live. Am I understanding that this is not the case?
Our brains do NOT become immune to tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT). In fact, the sooner your brain gets trained to habituate to tinnitus, the sooner you will get tinnitus relief. It is never too early to receive tinnitus retraining therapy :) Check out one of our patient's success story after TRT! treblehealth.com/john-case-study-tinnitus-retraining-therapy/
@@treblehealth That's fantastic to hear - thank you so much for this reply, and for all these videos, they've helped me so much.
I'm a sound engineer so my hearing is important. I get checked twice a year, and have lost 4k-5k frequency loss in my left ear. Knowing this I can compensate in my mixes... but I also have terrible tinnitus. I recently began using masking sounds when I am not in the studio. Some of it is helpful. I found an app that also allows targeting a specific frequency which is helpful.
All thanks to #drituatinnitusdoc the buzzing sound in my ear has finally stop.. Life is back again, thanks Dr
What is the app?
I suffer from ringing in my right ear I can’t stand it anymore and it’s lowed I went to a doctor but there is no cure any advise I’ve tried everything please help me ?
Have you tried a night guard is it possible you're grinding your teeth at night and don't know it. I found out that was my problem and I got a night guard and tried it and in one night it reduced it to a whisper what can you lose give it a shot
In holistic medicine such as TCM there are MANY internal patterns of disharmony which can cause tinnitus which have nothing to do with the ears...
Please does this sound therapy have to be done using headphones? Thanks.
Hey Cezar, some people use earphones to play sound therapy to help provide relief from the perception of tinnitus.
@@treblehealth Yes, but which one is the best?
Hi everyone. Can anyone tell me why in ear noise generators work but ear buds don't?
It started for me when I had covid few months ago, on the 5th or 6th day my ear channels were filled with fluids, for several days it felt that my head is under water or in a container in addition to tinnitus, the fluids eventually went away but the tinnitus remained. Also some times there is a cracking sound whenever I swallow my saliva or even open my mouth I'm not sure if there are some fluids remaining in my ears. Anyone have a similar experience?
Your gain might be turned up due to damage. I can hear popping in my left ear bc of this
There's a heap of head lymphatic drainage and Eustachian tube cleaning vids on CZcams! Have fun exploring them and finding the ones that work well.. I've got rid of mine in a less than week using them. Along with sound therapy :)
Do you tried silencil??
Sound maskers only help with not hearing the T. I am not a believer in the chart of habitations. I have had T since 2014, still as bad as when it started, depression for months , saw specialists 2 hour drive for a device called oasis neromond, listen daily 2 hours for a year. No help, notch therapy no help, I tried it all. Nothing helps. ENTs have no clue about T or the research, thanks to Ben keeping us informed. Looking at Lenire device, hopefully it will help me.
Did Lenire help? I have a consultation next week.
What about when you have hiperacusis and any sound makes it go louder?
Sound therapy works very well for hyperacusis patients and there are additional exercises that can help! Check out this video from one of our Audiologists, Dr. Tracy Holcomb to learn more. treblehealth.com/how-to-train-your-brain-with-tinnitus-and-hyperacusis-dr-tracy-peck-holcomb/
@@treblehealth I live in colombia, South America, do you give treatment to people overseas? It would be a life saver
Is brown noise helpful?
Yes, brown noise can be a very soothing sound for managing tinnitus. Any sound that you find relaxing will work for sound therapy. Remember to keep the volume at a soft but audible level, below the volume of your tinnitus. Please reach out if you need any additional guidance.
@@treblehealth Thank you.
Hello Dr. Hello all So, good news Nitroglycerine for hypertension please please take one pill using nitroglycerine once. AMAZING
Can you explain more
@@Honda1k I believe that high blood pressure affects the ears, check your blood pressure and get medication. As far as I am concerned I went to the hospital with Hyper Tension 2 (167/120) or so and they gave me Nitroglycerine then I went home went for a 1 hour walk (in the sun) came home showered and rested I woke up feeling great (I mean great). I urge you to go to the doctor and see if he can give you nitroglycerine (he will know if he can). Think of it this way a reboot of your blood pressure... I really hope it works for you be extremely positive while you go to the doctor!
Good luck let me know.
@@mikhabarroukhracing I've never had high blood pressure, but if that worked for you, great.

@@treblehealth How can we attend non-complimentary constultation?
I would rather die than have this it's killing me
I felt the same way. And then I started to think maybe I was grinding my teeth at night not knowing it and I tried a night guard and when I woke up my tinnitus was just a whisper. What can you lose to try it. I was so surprised and happy. Going to try it again tonight and see if this is really the answer.
Tinnitus is a sign when your brain tells you there is something wrong.
Could be spinal issues, Tmj etc and if there is no other known cause for totnutis then there is a brain inflammation
people are suffering when they do not have to susan shore has a device which has been approved 3 times i trust her you can read about her on internet it is the fda that is not putting it thru get those calls in and tell them we have waited long enough
