[quote=Anonymous]I have tinnitus and single sided deafness. I wear hearing aids. I have learned to live with the tinnitus mostly. But if I let myself think about it, I get really irritated and feel like I will lose my mind. I have to use distraction. I’m sorry it is so bad for you. My triggers are loud environments. For example after a party or loud restaurant it is bad. Also, oddly, white noise triggers it. My husband insists on sleeping with a fan or sound machine. I say this because white noise is apparently helpful for many. It’s a case of knowing your triggers. As far as being tired, I feel this but I think it’s more from my hearing loss. I am absolutely mentally drained after social situations or a day of work from the mental effort it takes to focus on speech. I assume this is similar to what you feel from trying to block the tinnitus. I hope you can find a solution. [/quote]
