- I am so incredibly humbled by the response to this video! As a thank you for watching, I'm giving away a FREE Download of Little Sounds Of Pain - the song I wrote about tinnitus - here: bit.ly/2GVLRm8
I made this video because I am often contacted by people suffering from tinnitus, asking me how I manage the condition. As a musician, tinnitus profoundly affected me, and so I wrote a song about it - Little Sounds Of Pain (link below). But I hope this video provides a more detailed source of support, encouragement and education for other people out there living with tinnitus.
Please share your own experiences, particularly any tips and suggestions to support each other, in the comments below. Also, please share this video if you know someone who would benefit from watching it.
Here are the links to some of the resources I mention in the video.

Everyone who has just started to suffer from tinnitus or who feels anxiety/depression because of it, trust me, it will get better. Once you get past the first hump and figure out a way to accept it, you start to feel a lot better and think it as a part of you. It might seem impossible at first, but it will get easier. Tinnitus is not the end of the world although it may feel like it in the beginning! And if you feel super overwhelmed by it, don't be afraid of therapy and other professional help. Stay positive, it feels great and makes you so much stronger when you conquer your tinnitus!

Thats great, but I am already suffering from depression and PTSD. I am losing it.
When I first got tinnitus I was contemplating suicide. Seriously, it was driving me absolutely insane. I'm doing better now.

@@jacquelinegarcia4053 it's getting louder. I bought a ear vacumn that sucks out the ear wax. Hopefully this will lessen the ringing
@@ShawntiaKnott what caused yours ? Mine was from headphones blasting music
I have tinnitus. The first week I noticed it was absolute hell until I found this video. She is so right- please do not read online forums!! Now, I can technically still hear a sound if I try to listen, but for 99% of my day I don’t hear it anymore and when I do, it’s not debilitating at all. It used to terrify me, but now it’s just normal and I feel completely fine. You have no idea how much this video helped me!!

when i first had it, i felt so alone and isolated. i mean, it’s not that common and i thought i was going crazy. but eventually, i just accepted it as a part of me. i tell myself that it’s just sound, and it’s not killing me. now it’s just background noise. it spikes louder sometimes, but now i am not completely terrified of it. also- reading people’s comments who have tinnitus helped me too, it made me feel less alone :) i pray everyone struggling with t finds a way to cope with it.

I also am struggling with tinnitus for 6 years now. Ive been in escape and denial mode for so long that i hit a wall and got depressed. Now im working my way up to accept it ass a part of my life. It took alot of guts for me to just go in here and starting tresting myself ❤️ feel so much regret you know. But life happens and you can not do anything about the past. Move forward help eachother and see us ass a family of people that will help this be better ❤️
It helps me reading the comments of other people too. In my case, I have tinnitus because of a disease called Ménière’s syndrome and that makes it more difficult, because the noise comes with nausea, dizziness and other symptoms.
Developing Tinnitus is a brutal , life changing event. I take it day by day. Been suicidal , to acceptance and everything in between. You’re all in my thoughts.
Check out Tinnitus Treatment By Liam here on CZcams, it’s a cure

@@MrBlodhund it is a scam
I have tinnitus. When I first got it, it stressed me out. I couldn’t sleep,the constant noise was depressing. It got worse when I was tired. Eventually,I adapted and accepted it and it became just background noise. It’s still there but it just normal now.
do you sleep well now?
Is it cured now?
Bhagavath A No,it still there. I have adjusted to it but I still have like a constant background noise.
poetjames what’s the difference between then and now , has it changed the aound?
if you are suffering from tinnitus and hearing loss watch this video.czcams.com/video/00p22O_4J8Y/video.html
Everything will all be just fine. Trust me. It will fade to the background and it won’t bother you as much. You can’t force it to go away, you just have to accept it and with time it will find it’s place in your mind. When this happens it won’t bother you anymore.
I hope so; my T got slightly worse when a bunch of life stressors came along.
I really hope some people do get used to the noise but I have not. I've had tinnitus for as long as I can remember, even as a child I had it but didn't know what it was I just thought it was normal hearing your heartbeat and ringing noises. Over the years it has gotten worse and now it's so loud I've gotten hearing aids in order to hear the real world and not just my tinnitus.

I’ve just finished cancer treatment and now started with tinnitus. Knowing I’ve started overcoming being told I have cancer and the effects of treatment means part of me knows I will adjust and part of me can’t believe it. It’s the feeling of inescapability that creates panic. With my cancer, I tried to approach it with a bit of intrigue and asked my body what it needs to get better. I believe being in conflict with your body can cause psychological, physiological and emotional problems.
Both the cancer and tinnitus make me feel breathless so I know I need to breath differently.

I developed it 18 months ago, fell.into deep depression, lost two stone, was on xanax and lexapro for six months, living in fear, then went to acupuncture, reflexology, changed my diet, 18 months on I actually laugh about it, and have embraced it ...it's a part of me now and it's important to accept it..this sounds weird but I'd actually miss it if it went! So embrace it...accept it and realize that worse things are happening to people, it's hard to see that now but it's true

Derek Irons I'm laughing right now...
@@derekirons2615 agreed. It's a TERRIBLE affliction! No sane person would miss it!

I realize that saying I'd miss it is a little tongue in cheek. But the best thing u can do is NOT personalise it. As if it's a demon inside u...realising that will get u over it quicker, trust me...
I'm 19 and developed tinnitus 3 months ago, It's been hell...Thank you for this video, I feel more hopefull for the future.
I’m really glad this video has been helpful. Don’t let fear win - it does get better 💚
I am exactly in the same situation. 19 and developed tinnitus 3 months ago after banging my head. I am starting to lose hope after seeing many doctors but trying to live with it
I'm also 19 and I developed tinnitus for about a year now, it was really hard at the beginning but I kinda got used to it. Sometimes it gets louder but I try not to focus too much on it.
You'll get used to it. I've been hearing that beeping sound since I was 13 and now I'm 26 and still hearing it. None of doctors I've met can cure it. Try not to focus on it too much and learn to ignore it.

This is probably the most important video I have ever watched in my life. Thank you so much Isobel. I have had T for 5 and a half months, I have felt the lowest of the low emotions, and at times it has felt like my life is over. Hearing your experience of T first hand, and seeing how you have got to such a place of acceptance and calmness despite tinnitus is amazing and has given me so much motivation and hope for the future. Everyone new to tinnitus should watch this video.
Please tell me how to diagnose it, I hear a light whistling when in a quiet room, how do I know for sure if I have it?
I can relate. I cured it by listening to Paul Stamets. He recommends a microdosing stack which gave me my hearing back almost completely. Watch. czcams.com/video/vFWxWq0Fv0U/video.html
Stay strong ❤ I know this was 4 years ago but i hope you are doing even better now! I too was at my lowest point ever in my life. And i just did not want to continue not even another day not even another day. But trust me when i tell you it gets amazingly better! I can say i am at the absolute happiest ive ever been! What has definitely helped me was working on my mind, body, and spirit. People like Wayne Dyer, Tony Robbins, and Eckhart Tolle, along with many others, have helped me immensely. I hope you are at a place of complete peace ❤ If you ever need anything, i am here always! Comment back on here and i am absolutely more than willing to help you! Have a great day :) ❤
You’re future is extremely bright ❤❤❤
@@paristonhill2752I think definitely going to an ear doctor to diagnose it! 3 years late but i hope you are doing beautifully ❤❤❤
Thank you for this incredible video. It radiates hope.
I am 36, I've had tinnitus for 20 years after a friend popped a balloon next to my ear. I have had multiple ups and downs along the way. Moments of despair and fear for the future. But I know that it can absolutely be lived with, as Isobel says it takes time and an adjustment of emotion towards it.
I am currently going through an extended spike of ringing which has thrust me back into the retraining stages. Of which I think stress and anxiety I think is playing a part. And it's forcing me to look deeper into tinnitus than I have in the past. I wish I came across this video years ago. I know I've achieved peace before, which helps to know it's achievable again.
Thanks again Isobel.
How are you doing now ?
30 years working under kitchen vents did it to me. I almost always have a low level *screeeeeeeeee* in my right ear (even as I write this). It gets louder when I try to listen to loud music or movies. When it's bad it strobes back and forth between both ears and it becomes hard to concentrate. White noise ambience & relaxation probably helps the most.
How is your tinnitus sleep without sound
No matter what the reason for the tinnitus is, you can all have a full recovery. All you have to know is that you have to reconnect with your body, take care of it and above all relax and limit stress. I found Julian Cowan Hill and Liam stop tinnitus on you tube and they saved my life.
I do: Meditation + Tai Chi + Cold shower + limited sugar and salt + eat well (it means eat meat and everything my body needs) + limited alcool + no coffee and tea + intermittent fasting + sleep well
I can say that live with tinnitus was horrible, I got it because of a loud music trauma, I was in anxiety attack everyday, fear about this sound in my ears.
Now i feel so good, i don't care about it because it decreases ( my tinnitus was around 7-8 before and now it's just 2-3), Sometimes i can hear the silence for like 15 minutes and sometimes more. I know now that my tinnitus will go away for ever really soon. I will continu this process until i can live in the total silence.
Please guys, we have one life, live is beautiful, stop to think negatively and act.
I hope you will act and succeed like me !
Thank you, I have lived in fear with this condition since my mother died 35 yrs ago, I never knew about it, I thought I was dying or going crazy, nobody talked about this
super wonderful. has it continues to get better since your 4 months ago post?
@@laurajoylustig4271 Hey !
Yeah, it was really low and I was well with it so I decided to live without all this things I did before to see what happens ! My tinnitus was at 2-3 and life was great, it decreased a bit more because I was better in my mind I think, I had more and more moment of silence, more difficult to hear my tinnitus, sometimes it goes at 4 during 2 days and it decreased more after it at 1-2 ! I’m in France so it’s lockdown now.. I have time to take care of myself so I decided to make things like I did before: meditate before sleeping, more sports, try to be positive, no coffee (coffee is the baddest things for tinnitus so I stopped it since the beginning), eat well ! I will try to make fast during 3 days several times during this period because I think it’s the last step to have total silence ! I will keep you inform about it if you want 😉
Never forget that tinnitus is not for life everybody !
@@Nedzzify hi man, I'm writing from México,do You have an email?, thanks.
You doing ok now all these years later
I have had pulsatile tinnitus CONSTANTLY for nearly 5 months. My physician ordered MRI and MRA and found nothing. The volume ranges from low to very loud. In the beginning, it was terrifying that it NEVER stopped and I might have it forever. At around the three month mark, I found myself acknowledging the tinnitus when it was moderate to loud and moving on, keeping busy, taking my dog on an extra walk. Many people find music drowns it out, but for me, just thinking about tinnitus as something that is with me, rather than something that is fighting me, made all the difference. Sending comfort and support to all affected. 🌻🌻🌻
Stay strong ❤ I love your mindset on not fighting the tinnitus. I think that is something that definitely helped me is not seeing it as a threat. What also helped me was deciding to work on my body, mind, and spirit. People like Wayne Dyer, Eckhart Tolle, Tony Robbins, David Goggins, Michael Singer, and Joel Osteen have helped me so much with this. It was a process and it took doing it day after day after day. For months. But in the end it was worth it! There are literally days i do not notice it AT ALL, even at night! I hope you are doing well, and if you ever need anything, i am here! :) Hope you have an amazing day :) ❤❤❤
In a way I’m lucky that Iv have tinnitus for so long I don’t remember not having it, iv always just lived with it
Thank you for this. ❤ I am a 22yo musician from France and first started having tinnitus 4 years ago. It was really a depressing time for me, and then I learned how to cope and it got so much better.... Until yesterday night. My tinnitus got worse, and I started hearing another tone on top of everything else, this one worse than the others. It really broke me when I realized it hadn't gone away this morning. But after watching this video, I feel much better. I'm sure it'll get better. I can go through this. Thank you.
Hey, do u use headphone ? If yes which one ?
Stay strong ❤️ I totally feel you. Im a 22yo musician as well and I got tinnitus about a year and a half ago and about a month ago i noticed it getting louder, i think from playing the music louder through my in ear monitors and i felt the same exact way. I felt so broken and i felt so defeated once again. For the longest i felt so good about tinnitus and was at a point where i would legitimately forget about it for days. And then this happened. But i knew i would get better again because i have been through this before. So that definitely gave me the motivation to go through this again and i knew i could do it. And so can you!! ❤ You can get through this i promise you! ❤ I feel now i am the happiest i have literally ever been! I look back and just feel so good about everything. As she says in this beautiful video, it takes patience. It took me day after day of being patient and working on myself, my mind, my body, and my spirituality most of all. You can do this! Do not give up! ❤ If you ever need anything, i am here always! And i am more than absolutely willing to help out! Comment back on here if anything of course :) Sending my love to you ❤ Have a great day :) ❤
Sometimes i would notice it louder in public but again i just really trained my brain to not notice and it took day by day to do this. But you can absolutely do it! Do not give up ❤ Life just gets so much better it really is crazy! You are going to get there if you aren’t already i promise ❤️❤️❤️
@@antonioramirez6850 how do you train your brain to not notice it? 1,5 year ago my tinnitus worsened to a loud ringing after I visited a bar (with moderate loud music) and still looking for ways to manage it. Sleeping is fine but during the day I really have difficulties sometimes. Some days I can manage it quite well, some days are more difficult.
Though it's been four years since you recorded and posted this... thank you again from 2022. It was really encouraging to hear. After fighting my symptoms for two years, I've decided to call it and start focusing on acceptance. It's really good to hear that really is the road to a better life.
Stay strong man ❤ I think that was what helped me definitely was accepting it. From that moment on i was able to move forward with my life. It was hard in the beginning to even accept it but it definitely had an immediate impact. It still took day after day though if getting better and that okay! I still absolutely do not lose hope on it being removed and if i can help someone else to accept if but not lose hope as well i will definitely be by their side. Stay strong man and dont give up! ❤ I have gotten to a point in my life where i legitimately do not even notice it for days! And you CAN too!! If you ever need anything, i am here!

Hi sir
I've had tinnitus for over 30 years. My late sister and her doctor husband studied trancedental meditation on India. She taught me how to meditate and it has helped me to escape from my tinnitus. I will have tinnitus until I did but I can escape it when I meditate. This is how I cope. Good luck to all you who have to cope with it. Life is worth it.
Sir , what type of mediation, i am 26 years old and i am listening this
I find it so difficult to meditate, are you able to ignore the sound?
My sister is only 29 and she has Tinnitus since November of 2018 and she’s suffering so much hearing all these loud noises and it’s so sad to see a strong independent women go into depression. My biggest desire is here for her not to go deaf ),:
How is she now??
How is she doing?
I hope youre sister is doing well now ❤❤❤ I know it this is 4 years later but if there is any way i can help i am here! Tinnitus can definitely tear the strongest of us apart. But it does not mean we can bounce back. I have faith that tour sister came out stronger than ever! Do not lose hope! My advice is she uses hearing protection when in loud places like concerts, clubs, parties with loud music, as she mentions in this video. Possibly show her this video if not already :) What definitely helped me was deciding to work on my mind, body, and spirit. People like Wayne Dyer, Michael Singer, Tony Robbins, Eckhart Tolle, David Goggins, and Joel Osteen have helped me soooooo much with that. I’ve literally gone to a point where i do not even notice it for days AT ALL and she can too!! I knew all i needed to do was just start. Please give her a hug for me and if either of you two need anything i am here ❤❤❤ Hope you both are doing well :) Have a great day :) ❤❤❤
at last a real video .. thank you for your time and thank you for your links. i wish you well .
This is the best video on Tinnitus I have seen. It aims straight for the heart of people who are under distress because of this condition. If you are suffering from tinnitus do take steps to ease yourself. I extremely suffered unnecesarily because I would try to tough it out and ended developing massive anxiety. Love yourself, take care of yourself always.
The sound of your voice somehow currently soothes my T. Thank you very much for sharing your experience
Thanks so much Isobel. This has been the most positive video I have seen. I am a drummer and trying to deal with tinnitus and hyperacusis right now..... thank you.
thanks Isobel, for being so honest, clear and kind, struggled to sleep and listening to you opened a path to hope
I too am a musician and have had tinnitus for 35 years. it has worsened in recent years and the slightest noise increases its intensity quite quickly can only listen to music at a low level, which is disappointing. I have to wear earplugs for any rehearsal, which helps. The tiny hairs in the inner ears of birds and reptiles can heal and regrow when damaged, unlike us. Nature is so cruel to inflict such an evil condition upon millions of good people. As Richard Dawkins said, "nature treats us with blind, pitiless indifference". Tinnitus is certainly proof of that.
what a shitty fucking life.

I'm still rather new to tinnitus and I certainly don't have it all figured out, and I still sometimes sink into hopelessness. The one idea that helped me most was that nobody will take away that horrible tone in my head, and the only thing I can do is to habituate my brain to it so that it gets bored of it ASAP. Of course I notice it all the time, but when I do, I say to myself "Yeah, habituation therapy is happening right now!" and that lowers my anxiety. Sometimes I pretend that I'm playing a custom audiologist-prescribed therapeutic tone in order to accelerate my habituation, and then I remind myself: "as far as therapies go, this isn't nice, but it's definitely bearable." But of course, the tone I'm pretending to play is just my tinnitus itself. Rehearsing thought patterns like that has taken me from sheer panic down to something like ordinary disappointment and sadness, with intermittent episodes of despair. Progress!
Thank you so much Isobel absolutely brilliant video. Thank you for sharing all the helpful links with us you have given me hope that I can at least calm down the noise in my ears/head. I am so pleased I found your channel. I have no doubt that you have helped many desperate people to live with their Tinnitis, it is very kind of you to share your experiences and resources with us. Take care
I deeply appreciate this sharing session - insightful and encouraging!
You may have just saved my life. I've had tinnitus for quite a while and up until now just never let it get to me but the last week or so it has been terrible. I really have been thinking there is no way I can go on with this and I know the reality is it's never going to go. So while it's still there and sending me insane you have at least given me hope.
Hang in there, it took me 5 years to live normally again. What I had to do was get white noise hearing aid. Mine is at a 10K-14K Hertz so it is very hard to mask it with normal sounds, a hearing specialist was able to help me and get my life back. Good luck.
@@sueemrick9075 Thanks for the advice. TBH I had a wisdom tooth removed that was putting massive pressure on the side of my face by my ear. The tinnitus has not gone unfortunately but it is now down to a level where its annoying but not actually debilitating. Obviously I'd rather it was not there but it's no longer at the kind of I'd rather be dead. On saying that what ear specialist did you see?
@@roland20002000 That's GREAT! From my YEARS of researching tinnitus I think there might be a fair chance that it will lower even more!!! If not, and the level goes back to the debilitating level, (that's where mine stays) I saw a hearing aid specialist who was able to use high frequency sounds like white noise and make me a hearing aid with those sounds. While it surely doesn't take it away it blends in the other sounds so it's not so piercing and I can go about my day. Sadly it took me 5 long years before I found this and it was life changing when I did so I just don't want anyone else to go that long without help. Continued lower volume wishes for you:)
Stay strong ❤ I hope you are doing well ❤❤❤ Do not give up! We are here with you! About a month or so ago i felt mine pretty bad but i got through it stronger! If you ever need anything i am here! I know this is 2 years later but i hope you are doing beautifully. You are so powerful! You are going to live out your purpose on this earth! ❤❤❤ Have a great day :)❤❤❤
@@antonioramirez6850 Thank you. I'm still alive, it still winds me up but people have survived far worse tradergies. So I just get on with it and count my blessings. You have a great day too :)
I was lucky, if you can call it lucky to develop tinnitus, because it happened when I was about 10 years old after a bout of measles. At the time it was horrible, but I was able to adapt quite quickly, because of my age probably. Nearly 40 years on I am still living with my constant pitch. I have found that when I have other sounds in the background I can easily focus on those sounds that the high pitch falls away to nothing. At night when it is much more quiet my hight pitch takes on a much higher volume. However, I have accepted it, and as has been said in the video, this is the key. I live with tinnitus and don't suffer from it.
To be honest, I am now at a point where if there was a cure I personally wouldn't take it because for me, at my age now, I would struggle to come to terms with silence now.
if you are suffering from tinnitus and hearing loss watch this video.czcams.com/video/00p22O_4J8Y/video.html
Thank you Isobel. I am very grateful for your inspiring story. Thank you for Little Sounds of Pain.
Truly inspirational video! Also it's amazing how you have been able to continue with your love of music! You're a real fighter! So glad I watched this! Many thanks for posting!
Tinnitus changed my life ! I helped my brain overcome and concerntrate on a particular things which helped in my studies!
I am also going to use my tinnitus as a catalyst to improve other areas of my life.
Its very difficult but we don't have other choice especially I'm in Pooja session ...need to be calm and i avoid tinnitus by chanting mantras.... 😅@@Irissssss416
Some people use tinnitus as game Changer. I feel like god gave me this because he wants me to remember him to over come this condition.e@@Irissssss416
Thank you this was really helpful and comforting. Wishing you the BEST.
Thank you so much for this video!! Thank you for providing so much useful information and being so positive, very encouraging! This has been a huge help in my early days of tinnitus.
Thanks again Isobel.. I am one year in to constant severe tinnitus.. Also a musician/recording artist. Your video saved me a year ago when it developed.. You quite possibly helped save my life by giving me hope and guidance.. Thank you
I used to always have tinnitus that would come and go and only a few days it came back and just has not gone away like it used to. It's been really hard trying to accept that this is it now, it's put me on edge and made me isolate from my partner and family more but I'm truly trying my hardest to get through it. This video really put me at ease. Thank you.
Stay strong ❤ I hope you are doing well! How is it now? Has it gone away? I got it about a year and a half ago and in the beginning, the first couple of months, were definitely the hardest. I felt like my life was over and i was scared to death. I did not want to be alive. As she said, i was in crisis mode. But i am in such a better place now! I feel the absolute happiest i have literally ever been, even before the tinnitus! If you were to tell me when i first had it that i would be in the elevated state of mind and emotions that i am in right now id literally laugh in your face and call you would not believe it even for a second. Believe me, it gets better! And i know its just so hard to believe right now but trust me when i tell you it gets better than better!! What helped me honestly was just working on my mind, body, and spirit. It was until i said “im not going to live in this mood anymore” that my life changed. It didn’t happen quickly, but i did start and thats all you need to do is just start. You can do this! I am here for you! It takes doing it day after day after day! If you ever need anything, comment back on here and I am more than absolutely willing to help you! You’ve got this! You were created for something just absolutely amazing and you are perfectly on your path! Believe it! Stay strong ❤ Have a great day :)❤
Hi Isobel.....can I just say that you have produced 30 minutes of the most sensible level-headed advice on Tinnitus that I have ever heard. A brilliant job, well done and THANK YOU. I've had tinnitus for years now ..with ups and downs.... but most of the time it has habituated into the background. The two bits of your advice I would really recommend to anyone else who has it are 1 - avoid chat rooms. They are poisonous in spreading despair or quack solutions and 2. Your emotions are key to this. While we "fight" tinnitus it will always win. Its terribly difficult, but accepting it is the best way for us to get on top of it. Easier to say than do....as I guess we all know, but it is true all the same. But thanks again. I am so glad I found this video.
I am so glad you are doing better! I agree how she made this 30 min video is just perfect! Accepting it definitely is the first step to making it not take over you life and it gives you hope! As she said it is a process. What definitely helped me is was deciding to work on my mind, body, and spirit. People like Wayne Dyer, Tony Robbins, and Eckhart Tolle have helped me sooooooo much. It takes time and what tinnitus teaches you is to be patient and how to manage stress so well. Stay strong ❤ We are all here for each other! If you ever need anything i am here and i am absolutely more than willing to help out! Hope you are doing well :) Have a great day! :) ❤
Thank you Isobel for making this video. I've watched it twice and I'll keep on watching it. Your message gives me hope.
Sincerely

Thank you ever so much, this is THE best video I came across.
Dear Isabel, My onset of tinnitus is identical to you, except I was 40 yrs old. My dad had it, and he didn’t pay it any mind, he sent for brochures from time to time, but here in the US in the 80’s there was almost nothing. I never had the suffering and emotional involvement. It just became another thing, like any other idiosyncratic abnormalcy. I feel you gave a fine presentation, and covered many questions I didn’t know I had. Thank you for your caring. You ar3 a lovely lady. Dottie Layer
Really well organized and gives hope-thank you!
Awesome video, thanks alot! We need videos like this!
Thank you for taking time to create this video. Shared on a chat room I give advise on about my own journey (avoiding negativity is key.)
I needed to hear this, thank you, I have been feeling extremely impacted and very low with it , also forums scared the hell out of me, i think i will take your advice and stay away from the online forums . Sleep is the hardest at the moment or being in a quiet room like you said, if i'm outside i can ignore it but inside is horrible.
Simply put-the most positive, factual, empathetic tinnitus video on the internet. When you finish your long and successful career as a musician-you should teach. Just Tremendous. Thanks so much.
thank you so much
This is one of the best videos I've seen on Tinnitis coping. I'm 2 months in and I definitely have my good and bad days. But thanks to videos like this I have hope. Thank you!
I’m so grateful to you for recording this video. I was lucky because very early on in my tinnitus I discovered the BTA website and decided to look at nothing else. I saw your videos on Take On Tinnitus and then you popped up on my CZcams. Everything you said resonates with me strongly and I love your attitude, the sense of peace and contentment you exude, your logical way of thinking and determination to educate yourself about the condition. I have followed your advice and 5 weeks in I already feel more at peace with my tinnitus. The part I loved most was when you talked about how tinnitus gave you more compassion. This resonates so deeply with me. This has been a period of enforced wellness for me and one where I feel I have developed a far deeper compassion for myself and others. As you say, our tinnitus doesn’t have to be our best friend, but I am grateful for the lessons it’s teaching me. Thank you again for your efforts and kindness which have helped so many people.
Beautiful ❤ I love your story and it definitely resonates with me as well. It made me so caring for myself and others and i feel like anyone with tinnitus who wants to do better and overcome this gets to that point of compassion and i just think its absolutely beautiful ❤❤❤ I am so glad you are doing well after just 5 weeks! I know this is a year later and i hope you are doing even better now! If you ever need anything hit me :) Have a great day! :) ❤❤❤
Thank you so much, your calm, reasonable approach has been so helpful. The most meaningful thing you said was, if your tinnitus could be removed, you’re indifferent about it. Just knowing you’ve achieved that level of acceptance gives me so much hope. I’ve had tinnitus for about a month and was suicidal the first 2 weeks. It does ease up volume wise every few days, which helped me hang on. My husband has been a wonderful support; it’s a problem that can’t be seen, like a sprained ankle but is much more distressing.
Stay strong ❤❤❤ I feel you completely ❤️❤️❤️ I too was suicidal at the beginning. I got it about a year and a half ago in february and i legitimately did not believe i would live to see April. I have got to a point where i actually do not even notice it at all for days and have felt actually the happiest i have ever been! I still do not lose hope on it being removed and if there is anything i can do to help anyone with tinnitus reach that point i will! Do not give up! I am here for you! If you ever need anything, i am here ❤❤ Comment back on here and i am more than willing to help out! Sending my love to you ❤ Have a great day! :) ❤
@@antonioramirez6850 thank you so much, I really appreciate you saying that. It’s been about 4 months now that I’ve tinnitus. It started a few hours after I got a Prolia shot to help increase bone density. The shot is supposed to wear off by December, I’ve kind of had hope that maybe the tinnitus might stop then, but now I’m more skeptical. It goes in a cycle for me, 2 bad days then it begins to lightens up and actually stops for a day or 2, then the cycle starts over. Just knowing I’ll have a few days of peace ahead, when it’s bad, helps me. I’ve gotten so I can ignore it most of the time except when it gets really loud, then I feel like I have a head full of crickets, lol. It’s hopeful to know that you are very happy and have learned to ignore your tinnitus
I have never wanted to 'like' a video more. Thank you so much for sharing all of this.
That's you for making this video. It helped calm me down. Your a blessing.

Thank you for the video . Its so nice of you that you want to help others!
Your video helps mi so much, I'm still in the grieving phase as I like to call it, but you give me so much hope for the future! Thank you so much Isobel!
Thank you!!! This was really helpful, as I am an audio mixer and this is something that I’ve been noticing more of over the last couple years. My job is hearing little frequency’s and fixing them, I have noticed a lot of fear and some hopelessness creep in, but I’m really encouraged to hear that you have found peace of mind. Thanks again for bringing hope and comfort to such a strange and often scary reality. I can feel myself being even a little more kind right now toward the reality of what I’m going through. Thank you again!
Stay strong ❤ I know this is 3 years later but i hope you are doing amazingly! I can see why the fear can creep up when being an audio mixer is your job. I am a drummer and i like to play really as hard as i can lol and with tinnitus the fear definitely would creep up on me often and fear of course of not being able to play definitely would hit. I realized the fear did nothing but drain me of my energy and i decided to encounter it and thats okay, as she says in this beautiful video as well. I decided to work on my mind, body, and spirit. People like Wayne Dyer, Tony Robbins, Michael Singer, David Goggins, Joel Osteen, and Eckhart Tolle have helped me soooo much with this. This definitely helped me to not focus on it, and even while listening to music very closely or in quiet rooms, i legitimately would not notice it for days. Be fearful but do it anyway :) Something i’ve learned to help me to overcome this. Of course protect the ears but dont let the fear push you away. Do not lose hope and i hope you are living your life the way you want it! ❤ If you ever need anything i am here! :) Have a great day :) ❤❤❤
Thankyou so much Isobel Your vid is Amazing ive been a Singer in Nz for over 30 years and just developed Pulsatile Tinnitus and its been a difficult road its only been a few months im getting there.. But your vid is the best and so personally helpful to understand how this experience is.. Much Love.. Thank you . Mark
Isobel, thank you so much for this video, you are a really beautiful person ❤. You are a role model of how to develop beautiful qualities of compassion, patience, and understanding from this condition. I recently developed tinnitus after an ear infection, and this is just what I needed to hear 🙏🙏 May you all be happy.
It’s very inspiring and well said Isabel. God bless you!
Thank you very much for these words, really means a lot! You are strong and give hope for many people. Respect.

Thank you for this. Fan of your music already and you provide great info for those of us that deal with this. I'm on two years of tinnitus, including deafness in the same ear, but a lot of your suggestions already make a lot of sense to me.
Stay strong ❤ I hope you are doing well! You are so powerful! Stay up and dont give up! Myself as well i noticed in one ear i would hear less. What definitely helped me was deciding to work on my mind, body, and spirit. People like Wayne Dyer, Tony Robbins, Michael Singer, Eckhart Tolle, David Goggins, and Joel Osteen have helped me immensely on all this. It definitely was a process in the beginning, but i knew all i needed to do was just start. I know this is 4 years later but i hope you are doing beautifully! What she says in this video is truly amazing. Know that you are loved and there isnt a single thing in this world that can stop your destiny! You are so powerful! Stay strong ❤❤ If you ever need anything i am here :) Have a great day :) ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for your video. It has given me hope when you find your self in a dark place. You have done so much for people you are a light in the dark. Given hope where there wasn't any. Once again thank you for your time and sharing your story. It has meant so much. It has only been a week in to my journey in to this new world.
Thank you Isobel. Very encouraging words and exactly why I stay way from the FB T groups!
Thank you Isobel. I’ve had tinnitus for 2 years. I finally started looking for information tonight. I think acknowledging it just stressed me out. I had to get up and walk about while listening to your video. Stress is better now. Thanks again. Your advice will help I’m sure.
I know this is 3 years later but i hope you are doing well ❤ Im so glad the stress is better now! Thats amazing! What definitely helped me was deciding to work on my mind, body, and spirit. People like Wayne Dyer, Tony Robbins, Eckhart Tolle, Joel Osteen, David Goggins, and Michael Singer have helped me soooooo much with this. It definitely was a process but i knew alll i needed to do was just start. Now i literally have days where i do not notice it at all. If you ever need anything i am here! I hope you are doing amazingly :) Have a great day :) ❤❤❤

Geez, thank you. This has been so relieving
Thanks for such an honest and informative account of your experience.
i've also been suffering from it and it feels good to see all these positive comments and people taking about their experience. This made me realize that so many people are suffering from it and i have also realized that if we talk about our problem than it would help to unburden lots of load. so if anyone wants to talk about it feel free.
Awesome, thanks for the tips! You are a really good singer, take care!

Hey bro i have this too. Feels like my ear is vibrating! How are you getting on?
Stay strong ❤❤❤ I know this is 2 years later but i hope you are doing beautifully ❤ For a while me too i felt like there was something inside of my ear but after getting it checked, it was clear but i just still felt like there was something. I feel for me it was in my head and i was just getting in my head too often. What helped me was deciding to work on my mind, body, and spirit. People like Wayne Dyer, Tony Robbins, Eckhart Tolle, Joel Osteen, David Goggins, and Michael Singer have helped me immensely. Now i legitimately have days where i do not notice it AT ALL. Do not lose hope! ❤❤❤ It definitely was a process in the beginning, but i knew all i needed to do was just start. I hope you are doing great :) ❤ Have an amazing day! ❤❤❤
