    Does it include tinnitus as well?

      They’d have to actually figure out what causes it to begin with, first. They can look at 100 people that were around loud noises that damage ears and often cause tinnitus, but couldn’t tell you why 50 of those people would have ringing, while the other 50 don’t. Let alone the people who have it without being around damaging noise. Or how I went deaf in one ear from nerve damage but have no ringing, even though most people who go deaf from nerve damage do have ringing.

      As I lay here listening to the ringing in both my ears… I sure damn hope so.

          Sometimes I can kinda tune it out briefly. But it never goes away. I never get true peace.

            You need to cultivate love for it. Make friends with it.

            Your brain will amplify any perception you regard as a threat. Your hate and fear is feeding it.

                The fact that you can only tune it out briefly.

                I notice mine roughly once every six months, and it doesn’t reduce my peace at all when it happens.

                  So everyone experiences it exactly like you? Come on dude. Ever heard of chronic tinnitus? And what you have sounds like occasional ear ringing. Not everyone is just like you.

      I followed my doctor’s advice and decided not to freak out about my tinnitus, and it doesn’t bother me at all.

      This was my very first thought and question too. I’m so hoping it does.

      IIRC there’s a few novel treatments (one using electro simulation of the tongue) and some new studies on the cause of tinnitus (auditory nerve overcompensating) that may lead us towards a cure.

      Would have to do some digging to find those sources though.
