I had my ears syringed to get rid of the wax as I explained above and now my ears are sparkly clean.....however the tinnitus is still here. Not sure why. It's certainly not anxiety related although I can understand why it would trigger it.
Background noise is the key, being in a silent environment is not helpful. Keep the radio on or TV. If you work talking to people helps.
At night you need to have some sort of noise in the room. I sleep with a fan on anyway, even in winter, but again the noise generated by it blocks it out somewhat.
Most of the time, I can't hear it, I reckon my brain is blocking it out..bored with processing it..it's only when I actually stop and listen, I think, oh it's still there.
