Houdini Splicer Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 Ooh, ooh, me! Me! I've had it since I was little. It sure made hearing tests fun. It wasn't too bad back then; it was only noticeable when it was really quiet. Every once in a while it would get loud in one ear, and I'd plug the ear opening for a couple of seconds, then it'd go away. A couple of years ago, though, my left ear started ringing loudly, and I tried closing it off. It didn't work, and it's been ringing ever since. Doctors don't (or won't) do anything about it, so I've learned to live with it. It's still annoying as hell sometimes, though.

Mine is usually caused by sinus problems I had a sinus infection back in middle school It was loud I had to turn the tv to the max just to hear anything from it Pretty sure I was talking really loud as well
1938_Packard Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Somebody I know deals with it by sleeping with the TV on.
bnmjy Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 It comes and goes for me. White noise always helps.
André Toulon Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 No, I'm not a psychopath. I kid, it's one of those things I don't have and hope to never experience.
lupin_bebop Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Only after I do a DJ gig. It's temporary due to.....well...loud noises for hours at a time. I don't have permanent tinnis, though. Though, it may happen to me sometime in the near future.
MasqueradeOverture Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Somebody I know deals with it by sleeping with the TV on. I do this. I only hear it when it's quiet or I focus on it, but it isn't totally debilitating (luckily). I can pinpoint the exact day I got it though. It was about two years ago: I was running on 35 hours without sleep as I'd just finished a project for a class earlier in the day, yet I still went ahead with driving down to Atlantic City with a couple friends. Not only was I completely sleep deprived, but I had a cold, and as soon as I got to our room at Harrah's I took an Advil Cold & Sinus and washed it down with a Corona. Then I hung out at The Pool for about 3 hours where the music was fucking loud as fuck before calling it a night. Yep. That pretty much did it.
