I've had it all my life but lately it's been worse

Meditation and sound therapy (8000hz) in one ear helps.

How do you manage yours?

Had for many years, I've got hearing aids that are supposed to help, but they don't, so I don't wear em, other than that I guess I just put up with it,

Trying to sleep is hard some nights when the whistling is in tune with your heart beat

Sometimes it's there and I frikken hate it, other times not so much. At one point I wondered if everyone has the same annoying high pitched whistling in the head.

Something weird during Christmas, dark conservatory lit by flashing twinkling lights caused the noise in my head to attenuate. I started googling why that might be the case but no answers.

How do I deal with it? I don't. Sometimes playing back any noises reduces it.

That's my tinnitus. It's about 8000hz maybe more and it's a high pitched whistle almost hissing. It's not the noise more the sensation around my ear

At night I don’t manage it. I just grin and bear it!

There’s nights where it’s not as bad as others.

Alcohol makes it a lot worse.

Daytimes is easy as music makes it disappear but I dont like to fall asleep with music on.

Stress, alcohol and smoking make it worse

I believe that the common advice is to avoid silence, external noises hive you a distraction from the internal noise.

There is a support organisation "tinnitus uk" who offer all sorts of help. I'm sure google will show you their website.

Hearing aids have really helped me but it's just something we have to live with. I avoid alcohol completely and try to avoid stress

Posture doing neck exercises alignment, balance. helps the (oxygen flow) through the ear cavity/channels

Yes you can breathe via your ears or air passes through if anything if you push it out

I have had it now for the last 6 years or more after having an ear infection (otitis externa).

A very high pitched whistle constantly day and night. I tend to have music/sound on most of the time with headphones just to sort of mask it out.

Sound exposure therapy to control the anxiety, pink noise to sleep, filtered earplugs for nights out, and masturbation for distraction lol

Yeah my neck isn't great lately. Text neck and wanking can cause issues but yes, neck exercises I'll try

I’ve had bouts in the past, mainly due to hearing damage from my wild and reckless youth

Was shown a technique years ago that seemed to help. Place your hands behind your neck, push your index finger in to the hollow behind you earlobes then press/massage the top of your spine/base of your skull with your thumbs.

Was something to do with nerve disturbance IIRC?

As strobing is a known trigger for epilepsy and has also been used for psychological torture, and light therapy is also a well known medical treatment, might not be that unusual for your head jelly to like it

I have tinnitus sometimes I bothered me a little but a I soon forget and treat it as white noise I can still work with it But it’s good insurance for an earlier than expected retirement

Had it for many years(apey) and now have hearing aids that do help, years of server rooms with 100+gb ambient noise and not wearing hearing protection. Worth asking a specialist though, as may well be treatable.

Apple air pods noice cancelling and brown noise or white noise at night help me sleep.

Absolute game changer on terms of sleep quality

Grin and bear it. It's progressively getting worse. I cant really go a day without noticing it. I try to see the positives (always glass half full) and when it gets to a certain level and the clicking appears I know that my stress levels are high and I try to chill out.

I went to get my hearing tested a few months back and there are interesting developments in the US but it will take 10 years to clear medical trials.

So I think he said. I could see his lips moving.
