I just ran into this site while googling something, now not even remembering what the initial search was to start with! Oh well, guess your site took priority of importance.. I decided to tell my story here and see if anyone comes up with something else for me.. I've had tinnitus, anxiety, depression for months now and thought I was having heart problems also. The doctor told me she thought it was anxiety and prescribed something for me to relax which I still have yet to try. I hate the thoughts of taking something that will change my personality. Worried about
that.
anyway, Today I was reading a book, while sitting up, with my head tilted down, then the side of my face started to feel numb also. I had the starting of a crown put on a tooth on that side of my mouth 2 weeks ago. Will have that finished tomorrow. I took some ibprofin about
a 1/2 hour ago and it does seem better now. But the tinnitus ringing in my ear will never go completely away. I was told by an ear doctor that the hairs in my ear are starting to flatten, meaning that deafness is occurring. Really strange to learn.. I said, do you mean to tell me that even though it means I am going to go deaf in one ear that the constant ringing will always be there there???? He said, yes.. What a life..
Meanwhile I have tried different meditation CDs.. for different things, but basically all alike in that they are meant to RELAX.. At least I seem to be getting a restful sleep at night now.
Just my personal input, because it sounds like everything is in relationship to what I've been going through for the past 7 months. It all began after my last loved one of mine had passed away, I had never felt anxiety depression etc.. or at least not to this extent that I knew of. I guess I have been trying to be strong for the past 4 years from my loss of another loved one of 23 years.. and my body finally said to give it up already. :-(
The worst was when I had decided to quit smoking out of it all. Now I have started again, it was just getting to be to much.
Good luck to everyone, Linda
PS: by the way, the meditation CDs that I've been using were Self hypnosis ones. I like them, they make me feel relaxed. but I find that I have to switch to another off and on because I get bored with it being for Quit smoking, weight loss, etc.. LOL
