there isn't any cure for tinnitis. I had an aquaintance who's father killed himself because it was driving his mad.
I have it from a chronic ear issue due to sinusitis but i've gotten used to it, and i'm grown ass man that can't be phased by a little ring in my ear.
grow a pair, . |

xanax makes it less loud.
so does not listening to music at insane volumes... they do actually slowly repair themselves if you don't blast them for a couple months. |

| The hairs in your Cochlea are bent and there is no way to get them back. You are screwed. |

| Tinnitus is a symptom, not a disease. I'd say the first thing is to figure out what is causing it, then you can find something to treat it. |

They don't. This has been proven many times over. Your hairs in the ear never repair themselves. |

Yeah, I know this is popular conception which is why I decided to mention that its not true. It's a pretty recent discovery (that they self heal just like any other living cell), google it up there's plenty of information available, got mine from new scientist when it was fresh news.
I've had pretty severe tinnitus for about a decade now, and I can confirm that they definitely self repair to an extent because the difference in high end pitch is very noticeably different based on whether I listen to really loud music, or keep it toned to a regular volume.
Actually, I find that I can do both--listen to loud(ish) music and prevent elevating the volume of the ring. If I start my music off at a lower volume then gradually increase it once my ears have gotten atuned, I don't get any damage.
And the tracks sound better psychologically since amplitude is one of the most potent illusions of quality within the framework of any music. |

Apparently evolution forgot some bugs in the design! |

| I am trying to find something about it, and I am not having any success. You have any links handy? |

I just got my moulds done today for another pair of ER25's ear plugs.
Got a complementary hearing test done as well which went without a hitch apart from a small drop in my left ear at around 500hz which the doc said could be because of a number of reasons.
Can't wait to get them in 3 weeks. |
