Why is a high pitch ring so annoying? What would my brain look like if I was used in your visualization to see why my tinnitus is so annoying? I love rain sounds and white noise it calms me down is there any other sounds or music you would recommend?

I've herd about that before. I've seen 3 ENT's and a neurologist for answers and had my brain MRI'ed twice. I thought it could have been from ototoxicity from either too much Dilaudid or antibiotic. Then there's the anesthesia so I really still don't know the culprit of its cause. I have no hearing loss either. Knowing what caused it would be nice but curing it would be just simply amazing I would probably cry with happiness for days. Interesting side not the MRI revealed a systemic Loop around one of my cranial nerves that's probably been there my whole life but could cause major problems. I thought that could be why I have Tinnitus but it's not according to the neurologist. They can cause severe uncontrollable pain on the face though. I don't have that yay :)

Thank you! Yes I've had it ever since I got my appendix removed which is odd. And I use an app already it helps me quiet a bit. I've tried all kinds of medication. I even did hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy which helped me get over my claustrophobia to an extent. But I bet you would be most interested in the hearing aid like device I use to wear that masked the sound using white noise and some tones in kind of a song like pattern. It is supposed to help someone habitualize to their tinnitus faster. Could sound therapy really change your brain instead if masking the sound?

I love this :) I'm currently trying it in my quite basement as I was doing homework and it's not doing anything just yet but I feel like I'm doing it right as I can hear the sound is louder and more effective while your hands are covering your ears exactly as if my head is a drum lol I will try more and more
