Drugs That Help Tinnitus are few and far between. In my experience, there are NO drugs that help Tinnitus! I’ll say it again “there is no cure for ringing ears”! And you certainly won’t find a cure in a bottle. Not today. Maybe tomorrow !

Now, having said that, there are drugs that help with the symptoms of Tinnitus such as depression, stress, sleeping disorders and so on. For example, some patients report that anti-depressants help them “cope” with ringing ears. If you are a chronic tinnitus sufferer, and if your are experiencing any of these symptoms, please consult your local health professional. I too was a chronic sufferer, but I changed my situation by monitoring my health and making a few lifestyle changes. To read about that click here http://www.paultobey.com/tinnitus/

The”tinnitus wonder cure in a bottle” doesn’t exist. In fact, many of those “tinnitus treatments” in a bottle can be harmful to you. So, please read the ingredients and consult your doctor before you begin a regiment of pill taking for tinnitus.

For example, I have a mild form of hemophilia. Hence, drugs like Ginko can truly be a health problem for me. In fact, when I took those so called “tinnitus cures in a bottle” I started showing massive bruising on my entire body! My Dr. alarmed me to the fact and I just got a bit wiser about what I consumed.

Another example is that I had someone write to me about his experience with consuming a Tinnitus “cure” from an internet site. After about 2 weeks he ended up in his doctors office. The Dr. reported that his patient’s blood pressure went through the roof! The Dr. pinned down the source once they managed to find out what he was doing differently. Again, the problem was in the ingredients of these “natural” cures. Chances are if your Dr. or Audiologist didn’t recommend a drug, it’s because there is nothing the FDA has yet approved that has been medically proven to help you.

Now I believe in healing through natural products. I’m not trying to say everything out there is bogus. I’m just saying before you consume anything, consult your doctor and make certain the ingredients can’t harm you or work against any prescribed meds you are currently on.

Remember, do your due diligence before you buy or consume pills.

I hope that helps you in your search. Feel free to browse other question and answer tinnitus postings.

I’ve recieved a few requests to speak on the issue of Tinnitus and depression from the percpective of a patient.  Some medical and music organizations also want me to speak about occupational risks when it comes to noise induced hearing loss and/or tinnitus.  As a trained certified speaker, my “live” style of speaking is entertaining vs. my “mentoring” style that I apply to my tinnitus audio.  And though I speak of a serious issue, I do use an enrolling and engaging format to make certain everyone is giving 100% of their energy to the topic at hand.  I remain absolutely grateful for the opportunity to continue to raise awareness about tinnitus.  For booking information please contact Nancy at 519-756-5381 or email info (at) paultobey.com

Dear friends,

I received the following comment from someone who responded to a post on my blog. I am reposting the comment here and then posting my response. Why? Because this is very very serious and I realize there are many Tinnitus sufferers are who can totally relate to what this individual is feeling. I want to offer some help in my response that may be beneficial to this individual and to all those who are in the same boat.

“I have just developed tinitis a few months ago, i was an aspiring musician who has played guitar for over 10yrs. I am 27 now and have a wife and child, I am loosing everything through the constant ringing in my ears, this yr i was already diagnosed as an OCD sufferer and i have had various health problems which i was determend to overcome, now this, it has come as a devestating blow at the worst possible time and i dont think i can ever be happy again, my wife and child are suffering through my depression and i feel totally suicidal, i have read about various medicines and tinitis cures on the internet, is it possible that any of these actually work?”

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your comment on my blog.

I must first say that I am not a doctor and do not hold any kind of medical degree. Therefore it would be irresponsible of me to comment on your medical condition. I can only speak based on my own experience after suffering severely from chronic Tinnitus for 7 years. My experience with tinnitus was not accompanied by OCD, nor complicated by other health problems. I did however suffer from massive depression as a result of my Tinnitus. You can read all about my journey here: http://www.paultobey.com/blog/?p=4

I also had, at one time, an inability to overcome my suffering which led me into a state of depression. I felt like a victim. I went into seclusion and wanted to drop out of life. My wife, my son and everyone suffered around me, with me, and because of me. Fortunately, I had a strong wife who had clarity when I did not.

Thank you for reaching out to me and expressing your feelings of suicide. I know how hard that can be. So, first, I will ask you to tell a friend, your wife, your mentor, your doctor, …anyone that can be supportive while you are figuring this all out. I don’t know what your belief system is, but if you were to ask me; I believe we are souls living a human experience so we can learn something. Some souls push themsleves to higher learning. Tinnitus and everything that accompanies it, including the sypmptoms, taught me what I needed to learn to get to a better place in my life experience. The pain and depression I experienced was as a result of a tug of war between my mind and my soul. As a result of Tinnitus, I grew emotionally, spiritually, mentally and I became a much better human being.

I didn’t do it alone however. I had lots of support beacons enter my life. Sometime it was just a stranger who was pumping gas who would say something like “I’m always great, and when I think it, I am always feeling great”. This taught me that my internal programming (the little voice in my head) was really focused on feeling lousy. I wanted to be like the guy pumping gas, “feeling great” all the time. After all, what did he have to feel great about? He’s pumping gas in freezing temperatures…yet he’s happy as a pig in s..t? What was is that I was not getting?

This was a very powerful lesson for me. That to feel great, I must first “feel” what it is to feel great. Chicken or the egg right? The secret to living a happy life, is “feeling” grateful and happy. You create your reality by how you feel. Your feelings are the key to manifesting.

How do you get there? How do you change your negative feelings and replace them with positive feelings? It’s a process. First you must become aware, (daily), what your internal script is.

First, write down every negative thought you have that you think about daily- the little messages you tell yourself everyday. It’s that nagging little voice inside your mind that tells you what you are currently believing about yourself. List the negative thoughts;(this is your mind’s script, your internal programming)

I feel lousy
I’m OCD - that makes me feel more lousy
I can’t play because of Tinnitus
I’m not this, I’m not that
I’m depressed etc.

Then, with the help of your wife, write down everything that is good about you, such as;

I’m creative
I’m a good husband and father
I’m physically able and grateful
I bring joy to people’s lives when I play music
I bring joy to my wife
I bring joy to my children
etc..

Then, go back to the little voice list, and write down the opposite of every negative thought. For example:

I feel lousy - write down “I feel great”
I’m a victim OCD - I’m in the process of healing my OCD.
I cant play because of Tinnitus - I am in the process of understanding and using Tinnitus to make me a better human and a better player.

The good news is that’s it’s only a script and you can change it! The trick is to really become AWARE of how many times a day your “little voice” in your head is actually telling you negative stuff. And for me, it was also about becoming AWARE that my soul was fighting my “little voice in my mind” saying, “hey, I’m really not that negative, I’m actually a very great, abundant and loving soul.” And, because my soul and my “mind” are conflicting, and are not aligned, I physically manifested illness in my body.

I’m not going to tell you that aligning your soul with your human experience is going to be easy. Once you become AWARE of your negative script (your little voice), you can decide to change that script. It’s your book! You are the author of it! You are creating your reality with every choice you make. You are making choices every day! Change your script. Change your story. Remember, you are not alone. Every day, millions of souls living the human experience are writing their own books. Every day, millions of souls living a human experience are making choices and choosing to manifest in certain ways. You are empowered. Right now you “feel” disempowered to change. But you have the CHOICE to change anytime you choose. You must be willing to change and learn everything you can about you.

When I resisted the pain (change), my life situation became more painful. When I accepted that my human experience was getting through this particular journey, I began to heal. I began to feel all the possibilities in my life once again, hence attracted more possibilities. Concious living…is a lifetime journey.

I don’t usually come right out to people and say, “buy my Practical Guide to Tinnitus Free Living package”. But to you, I will. Because in this package you will find very valuable information for you and your wife about the healing process. My sense of it is that there is information on the audio and in the ebook that will resonate with you. I don’t talk about what pills work, or what new device will work, or anything like that. I talk about the internal process of healing and what worked for me. And, because I am a jazz musician who suffered from chronic Tinnitus, I may just be speaking your language.

If I can serve as one of the beacons in your life to get you back on the road to healing (spiritually, mentally, emotionally), that is my purpose…the reason I’m doing this work. However, from your short email, I do recognize you also in need of a professional. Please go to your Doctor and tell him/her you are emotionally suffering, and that you need professional support. Everyone needs support. That is part of the human experience. They will come and go, enter your life at strange times and it will feel like a “coincidence”. But these times are never coincidences. Recognize your beacons of support when they come to you. Whisper “thank you”. It’s your opportunity to learn everything you can about being human.

Also concider support groups for either Tinnitus or OCD. I have a Tinnitus resources page you can look through and see if there is anything local to you. Tinnitus Resources

I wish you healing! Remember, I speak as a fellow Tinnitus patient, and not as any medical professional. This email comes to you from the heart, and with strong encouragement that you visit your Doctor as soon as you can.

Keep Reaching for Stars, and if you do, you’re at least going to hit the Moon!

All the best,

Paul Tobey

How many of you remember that high pitched ringing or buzzing in your ears as you left the concert, dance or loud club gig? Unless you live under a rock I know you’ve experienced it. For the vast majority of people this is simply a temporary sensation that wears off in a few short hours or less. But for many people, especially musicians and those with prolonged exposure to loud noises, this can be a permanent and painful ordeal. I know, because I have it. It’s called “tinnitus.” And like me, it already affects an estimated 15% of the population, with the numbers growing at an alarming rate.

The focus of today’s article is on those who already have tinnitus. Because, for those that don’t have it, all you need to do for the most part is to protect your ears with ear plugs or bunched up tissue paper. Sure, there are other ways of contracting tinnitus like; over the counter medicines, viruses, nerve damage etc. But, the overwhelming cause of tinnitus is exposure to loud noise which is thankfully 100% preventable.

So, let’s say you’ve already got tinnitus. What now? Well, judging by the dozens of emails and letters that I get from tinnitus sufferers every week, most of you are having a really hard time of it. So did I! I recall my first couple of years with tinnitus as an unbelievably dark hole that I thought I’d never be able to climb out of. I completely dropped out of life and even contemplated giving up music all together. I was incredibly depressed and if you must know; even suicidal. Oh my god, as I’m writing this, I’m painfully thinking back to what it was like just getting out of bed in the morning. That is; if I even managed to get to sleep in the first place. I dare you to try sleeping with jets taking off in your head!

Thankfully though, after 7 years, I’m back! And, I’ve got some great news for you; you can win the battle against tinnitus! How did I do it? The answer to that is something that many of you won’t expect and many more of you will find hard to believe but, the cure for my tinnitus was in my “music.” Now, I’m not talking about cranking up your music as loud as you can so that it drowns out the tinnitus. Please don’t do that, it’ll make it worse. No, what I’m really talking about is; searching the depths of your soul for what it is that you really really want and focus on that instead of the tinnitus. I focused on writing and performing my music because that is what my soul wanted to do.

The distance between knowing what you were born to do and curing yourself of tinnitus is relatively short, if you know “how” to make the connection. But, here’s the catch; to what degree are you actually prepared to take your passion?

You see, you need to know exactly what your ultimate goal is. Why does that matter? Because, if you don’t know where you’re going, you’ll end up somewhere else! Adopting a goal and doing everything you can to achieve that goal can help keep you on track while everyone else is skating through life on a broken skateboard.

So, the real purpose of this lesson, and the cure for your tinnitus, is to get you focused on what you really want. Because, if you focus on what you want, instead of what you don’t want (your tinnitus), you’ll get more of what you want! Sounds simple right? Not on your life! Focusing on what you want is impossible for most people because unfortunately most people simply don’t know what they want.

How do you find out what you really want? Let’s say I’m a genie in a bottle and I can grant you any wish you want. And, this granted wish comes without limitation, without any previous negative evidence to the contrary and I’m asking you to make your wish really, really big! This answer to this question IS what you really want.

So, what’s a big goal? Well, let’s take my goal for example; I want to play Carnegie Hall. Will I ever get there? Probably, but even if I don’t, I’ve already gotten 5,000% further than if I’d never had that goal in the first place. But, getting to Carnegie Hall, even though it’s the ultimate goal, doesn’t really matter because I’m focused everyday on what I need to do to get there. You see, it’s about the “journey,” not the destination that’s important. And, I’m enjoying every minute of it.

So, the real trick to getting what you want is to adopt a big goal and learn everything you can about how to make that a reality because, if you shoot for the stars you’re at least going to hit the moon. And that, my musician friends, is how you cure your tinnitus. Choose your big goal, focus on doing everything you can to make it so and your tinnitus will disappear! The ringing may never go away but, if you’re not focused on it and you’re not aware of it, then I say “you’re cured!”

Musicians Noised Induced Hearing Loss is more common then you think! In most cases, ringing in the ear (Tinnitus) also accompanies the hearing Loss. I got a note from a fellow musician who Produced a Public Service Announcement on Tinnitus. I viewed it and think it is fantastic. If you are a pit orchestra musician, a classical musician, a jazz musician, a rock/pop/fusion/funk/country/reggae/blues… any kind of musician….you must take preventative measures and protect your ears! (This goes for concert goers). Send this PSA link to every musician you know! Awareness is the key.

Musical instruments can generate considerable sound and thus can also cause hearing loss. The most damaging type of sounds is in the high-frequencies. The piccolo generates sound levels up to 112db…roughly equivalent to a jackhammer at 30 feet.

Violins and violas can be sufficiently loud to cause permanent hearing loss. This is typically worse in the left ear which is nearer the instrument. Unlike other instruments, the ability to hear the high-frequency harmonics is crucial to these musicians. Mutes can be used while practicing to reduce long term exposure. (Karlsson, Lundquist et al. 1983; Ostri, Eller et al. 1989; Royster, Royster et al. 1991; Sataloff 1991; Palin 1994; Teie 1998; Obeling and Poulsen 1999; Hoppmann 2001; Kahari, Axelsson et al. 2001). In a study of rock/Jazz musicions, almost 3/4 had a hearing disorder, with hearing loss, hyperacusis and tinnitus being the most common maladies. (Kaharit, Zachau et al. 2003)

In regards to breaking the tinnitus habit, I recently received an email from a reader who writes…

“I try to keep myself busy and do things that i enjoy but it seems that my mind is always locked onto the sound. Are there any tips you can give me that helps break this habit? I’m at the point where I’m truly trying to accept my tinnitus and sometimes I can and other times I can’t. I know it can’t hurt me, but I fear that I will have to suffer the rest of my life with it.”

In answer to this question, “Are there any tips you can give me that helps break this habit?” I must first say that, most definitely, it is a habit to focus on Tinnitus. In fact, I suspect you’ve gotten so used to focusing on it all the time that it’s a habit that would be incredibly hard to break. But, not impossible!

So, how do you break a bad habit?

There is only one way to do this. Add habit forming positive routines to your day that are equally habit forming. When you do this, your new habits will override your old ones.

This process is much much easier when you are fully aware of your destination. Even though life is not about the destination but about the journey, knowledge of your true destination makes it easier to focus every day on doing something that leads you to that destination. When you do this your mind will turn away from the negative tinnitus and be turned towards doing what it is you really want to do.

What do you want? I’m mean really want? ie: fame, fortune, peace, success, money, companionship etc etc…. Take some time and figure out what it is you really want and then make daily habits that lead you to that destination. Good habits. Because, good habits are just as easily formed as bad ones.

Let’s step away from tinnitus for a second and talk about another easily formed bad habit. “Lack of Exercise” which is a big problem in Western Society. You know it amazes me when I ask people at the gym, “how are you?” or “how’s it going.” Most of the time I get the response, “not bad,” or “I’ll feel better when I’m done” or “I hate the gym and I can’t get out of here fast enough.”

For those people I know that I will see them very very infrequently. Why? Because, you can’t be good at something you hate. It’s impossible. When I first started going to the gym it was hard at first but I made it into a habit. Now, everyone around me knows that from 8:15 am to 10am every Monday, Wed and Friday I’m at the gym. No one questions that. Why? Because it’s a habit and everyone respects that. As a result, it’s something I can count on to give me time away from work, from family and friends to be by myself and doing something good for my body.

That’s how to make anything a habit. Learn to love what it is you don’t necessarily like to do, because it’s good for you! And, it is leading you to the destination of healthy living.

Now, let’s take a look at life. If I have a really big goal it makes it so much easier for me to form habits that chase that goal. What is my goal? To play at Carnegie Hall! Now that’s a big goal. Will I ever get there? Who’s to say, but I believe I will. But, even if I don’t, I’ll get 5,000 percent further than if I never adopted that goal or ever learned anything about actually achieving it. And, it doesn’t matter anyway. Why? Because I’m focused on the goal and forming good habit to meet that goal that takes my mind of the negative stuff like Tinnitus.

What’s the really good news? You tinnitus will actually get better (lower in volume) by not focusing on it. Trust me, I know this works.

One final word. Avoid saying things like, “I fear that I will have to suffer the rest of my life with it.” This is the worst thing that you can do is say something like that. Why? Because you’re focusing on what you don’t want…and you’re just going to get more of it whether you like it or not.

Right now, form a new habit by putting your intention forward and adopting new phrases like…”somewhere someone has been cured from their tinnitus, tomorrow it could be me.” The universe understands what you want and what you don’t want equally. When you weight your statements on the side of what you really want you’re going to get more of it!

I noticed that you downloaded my “6 Top Ways to Reduce the Ringing” eReport. You’re only on chapter 2. Have you adopted the first 2 lessons? Can and will you make them a habit. I promise that if you make them a habit you will heal over time.

Lessons 3 through 6 are also new habits to be formed. You must do them. If you do not take the initiative because of your “fear” then there is little I can do for you. But, I have a feeling that you can and you will adopt these habits. Your sanity depends on it.

Have a most happy, joyous and tinnitus-free day!

Nearly a third of the population suffers from Tinnitus; ringing in the ears. And, of that third about 25% percent have it seriously enough to seek medical attention. So, for the millions of tinnitus patients; the ones who are suffering on a daily basis, the focus of this article is on you. I’ll be sharing with you an amazing secret which will control your tinnitus volume like nothing else out there. The catch is; it may just be the hardest thing you’ve ever had to learn. 

It’s hard because most people do not understand even what it is that’s making your ringing louder; let alone how to deal with it. You hear it talked about all the time. Many people know the symptoms of it but, the vast majority of people have no idea how to deal with it. And, believe me, it’s your worst enemy as a tinnitus patient. What is it? What’s this dreaded monster?

STRESS!
I can feel you getting stressed out just by reading it. But, by far the #1 way to reduce your tinnitus volume is; “Get rid of your stress.”

REDUCING STRESS = REDUCING VOLUME
Why is this so hard to do? Well for starters, most people have no concept of what stress is. Most people think it’s the symptoms ie: anxiety, anxiousness, being up-tight, feeling anger, resentment etc. The truth is the symptoms are not stress. And therefore, once you learn the real definition of stress, only then can you learn to rid yourself of it.

So, here’s the definition of stress…Stress is; “The amount of energy you put into resisting your situation.”It’s not the situation that’s causing you stress, it’s the energy you put into resisting the situation. So, how do you not resist it? Well, there’s really only 2 non-resistant choices you can make in any stressful situation and that is to either; a) accept it or b) remove yourself from the situation. Do you know how many people misunderstand this concept? Staying and fighting only makes the stress worse because you’re acting out of fear and your ego wants to win. You cannot win, especially at the expense of others.

So, let’s talk about tinnitus and stress. Tinnitus actually causes stress because of the constant ringing in your ears. The worse part about this is; when you’re stressed out your tinnitus volume goes up and you get more stressed right? That’s why tinnitus is such a hard thing because you’re constantly caught in a vicious loop of stress and constant ringing. That’s no way to live, is it?

How do you reduce the stress? Stop hating tinnitus. That’s a very hard concept for your to accept but the fact is hating tinnitus causes more stress because you’re resisting it. Don’t! Tinnitus is your friend. It’s here to tell you something about your life that you don’t already like. It’s here to tell you that you need to be taking better care of yourself. You need to be doing what you want to do instead of what others expect of you. Acceptance of tinnitus is the key to healing. When you accept your tinnitus you will reduce the stress and anxiety that it causes and therefore you will reduce your volume. Remember, reducing stress = reducing volume. Guaranteed!

Knowing the definition of stress will help you a lot and knowing that you need to accept tinnitus will help but, it won’t give you the weapons you need to win the battle. I can’t teach you that in one email. That’s a journey you’ll need to take over a period of time. But, there’s no better time than the “now” to start anything. When it’s 2 weeks from now it will be NOW! So, it will always be now and therefore you can only start, NOW! Are you confused now?

What I’m really trying to say is this; I know you can get a handle on this thing if you just make a clear conscious choice to learning everything you can about acceptance. If you don’t try, you’ll still be completely stressed out and going crazy with Tinnitus many years from now. You don’t really want that now do you?

Tinnitus Ringing In Ears Driving You Crazy?

Recently my story was published in “Tinnitus Today” the journal for the American Tinnitus Association. It’s an authentic account of my six year journey in search of relief from Tinnitus.

I suffered from a severe and chronic ringing in the ears and a slew of other symptoms like lack of sleep, depression, physical pain in the head, and hyperacusis. However, over the years, I have stopped being a victim of tinnitus. I now live what I like to call “a Tinnitus Free Life!” Click here to read that article.

Paul Tobey and Wife Nancy Houle

As a result of that article, I’ve received many emails and letters from people all over who are currently suffering from tinnitus and are looking for help. That’s why I’ve decided to put together this professional package entitled “A Practical Guide to Tinnitus Free Living.” Quite frankly though, I don’t want to give the impression that what has worked for me will work for everybody. While I do give valuable information, you must remember that I am not a medical professional, I am not a Dr., I am not an audiologist. I am someone who has conquered his fight with Tinnitus. Everybody’s healing journey is different. However, what I teach may resonate with you and lead you to your own tinnitus free living success.

My professional career as a pianist is constantly in the public eye and for that very reason I hesitated to put this package together. I feared being appearing vulnerable to those who do not understand the plight of the Tinnitus sufferer. However, my intention is to help people.

I now live a 100% Tinnitus Free Life. That means that the Tinnitus no longer controls me. I’m out of the vicious loop of stress, anxiety, no sleep, and chronic suffering. I have chosen to not take anti-depressants, and I found a life of abundance. And, you too have the power to do exactly the same thing. Will it take some work on your part, you bet! But anything worthwhile takes some effort, don’t you agree?

I once spent $4,000 on Tinnitus Retraining Therapy, thousands more on natural meds, shamans, healers, messages, and all sorts of potential cures. I had to find my own healing. I share how I did that very candidly with you, in hope that it may serve as a beacon for you to find a Tinnitus Free life.

Click here to get your “Practical Guide to Tinnitus Free Living.”

I’m still getting emails in response to my tinnitus story that was published by the American Tinnitus Association. Some are wonderful testimonials of chronic Tinnitus sufferers who have found relief by making serious life-style changes. I too made those life-style changes which healed alot of my suffering. I talk about this very candidly in my audio seminar. You can order it now by clicking tinnitus help.
Sadly, many of the emails I get from Tinnitus sufferers are expressing fear, anger, depression and withdrawal from life. Though I try to write back to everyone personally, I can only try to inspire from the perspective that I was once a chronic victim to Tinnitus. I am not a Doctor, Psychologist, Neurologist or Audiologist. The only thing that qualifies me to speak on the subject of Tinnitus, is that one time, my chronic suffering created a downward out of control spiral into massive depression. I remember with great clarity what that “feels” like. However, I did manage to climb out of that vicious circle of stress, no sleep, severe tinnitus, etc. I can share insight as to “how” I did it, and perhaps some of the things I say may resonate with you. Perhaps some of the things I did could be useful in your own life.

If you are suffering from chronic Tinnitus, and it is causing you to spiral into depression, please consult your physician, or contact your local Tinnitus Support Group.
