@@debwaite3752 Changing my diet in order to reduce inflammation was helpful. I cut out processed foods and sugar. The most helpful thing was changing how I reacted to anxiety. Learning how to calm my nervous system and address the things that were making my anxious quieted my tinnitus gradually, but over time, very significantly. Finally, I religiously wear hearing protection in loud environments. I hope that helps!
@@debwaite3752 I don't think there is one answer, for me the relaxing techniques Julian teaches- like the Clench and release - and yoga nidra found on youtube, I was able to relax my body and gradually step out of fight/flight/freeze mode. That way our brain can let go of the hyperfocus inward, and start to again look outwards, and the sounds can be faded out as they are no longer considered important by the brain. 💖
Hi Julian. MY TIME HAS COME! I had extreme severe tinnitus for 22 months. Now i can say that its gone. I have gained back my peaceful life. And by god do i have to thank you for your advise and hope! For your game changing sience that made so much sense to me! Thank you and god bless you friend! Leave your ears alone is what you said and this is what i did for the last 12 months. People let me tell you no matter what caused your tinnitus it doesent mean it stays for your whole life. You just have to free yourself of its grips and be patient. I work in a loud factory everyday. I go to the shooting range and did it even when my ears were ringing constantly because i didnt care anymore! I wanted to gain my old life back again. And i ate and drank wathever i wanted because i didnt want it to link it with tinnitus and ending up thinking of it every day! Enjoy your life and time given to this world against all odds. Change your behaving towards stress and negative influence. Find your very personal calmness. Be kind to yourself. And you will see the end of the tunnel one day. Whenever my tinnitus was at its worst i told myself: MY TIME WILL COME!
Really glad to hear this. Its such a relief isn't it! If you would like to leave a short video in my positive tinnitus story section please get in touch here: pinfo@juliancowanhill.co.uk It really helps others hearing positive tinnitus stories.
This is also my experience - I just had to go through horrible anxiety and insomnia for almost a year before I actually could manage to start to care less. So much with the help of Julian and learning to relax. After 2.5 years it's only audible at night and I have "my life" back.
Yes I've lived a largely quiet life since 2002. You could learn about the practicalities of how to do this on my app here: www.quietenapp.com or you can read my in-depth story of how I went to Hell and back and recovered here: www.amazon.co.uk/Long-Tide-Silence-Julian-Cowan/dp/1718949936/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=julian+cowan+hill&qid=1653032215&sprefix=Julian+cowan%2Caps%2C59&sr=8-2
I just wanted to thank you Julian, your videos saved me, possibly even my life. 1 year ago the stress from self isolation and a bad work review combined with the way I have always internalized life stress and ratched up stress on myself triggered a heavy bout of Tinnitus that wouldn't stop for the first time in my life. I didn't realize but the more I focused on it, the louder it felt, and as a musician with eagle like hearing I found it extremely terrifying, waking me up in the middle of the night so I couldn't even get a night's sleep. I was in terror and I was so tired I just wanted it to stop any way I could get it to do so. I went to an audiologist and they said I just had to live with it - the worst thing anyone can tell someone with a new bout of persistent Tinnitus. It wasn't until I went on a hiatus and moved temporarily back home to my home town and started watching your videos that I started to understand what was happening and how my brain was reacting and developing a sort of hyperacusis... my father would take me for a ride in the car and I was even terrified of the sound the car made when it was going over little bumps or potholes in the road - thinking it was so loud it was damaging my hearing worse (which sounds crazy, but my brain was playing tricks on my and hyper focused because I was so terrified). If it wasn't for finding your channel especially, as well as other positive youtubers like Joey Remeny & Ben Thompson to give me hope I would probably have lost my job, and ruined my life - at best. But thanks to you, I started realizing that just by watching your videos for a few minutes the ringing would start to go down, to a point where I can now go days without it bothering me at all. Sometimes I can literally stop and say "Can I hear it?" and I hear nothing at all. Other days it's harder to completely ignore but your techniques help considerably - and once I ignore it, it often goes away. I have totally changed my approach to tinnitus, and changed the way I deal with stress in my life overall, thanks to you. I'm getting back to going out and doing the things I love, like going out to bars (with earplugs!), and sometimes playing my piano - slowly, and steadily, testing the waters, because I don't want to trigger a new bout of crisis - I thought it would never go away, and it has gotten MUCH significantly better. Your teachings have changed my life and taught me to change the way I allow my brain to deal with stress, which was having negative repercussions on my relationships as well (no one wants to be around a stress case all the time anyway!) I often now describe Tinnitus to people who don't experience that as similar to when you're a child and scrape your knee - if you don't notice it, you don't even feel it, but the moment you look down and notice it, it's the more painful thing in the world. So thank you Julian, you are kind of a true Shaman of sorts, a guru and a healer of souls... Thank you for your vital assistance that you have given to me and everyone else who benefits from your channel, personal story and wisdom. God bless and thank you humbly. ✌❤🩹🙏
Thank you so much for sharing your positive story. It will be really inspiring for others. Maybe you could send me a video of your experience and I can put it on the video section. Really happy that you are doing so well. Good for you. Keep up the good work on yourself! Wishing you well Julian
Listen to what this man says. He’s absolutely right. I’ve had tinnitus for 12 years. I’ve recently had a massive spike which sent me into a depression and anxiety state. I have it in my left ear. I had it habituated for about 11 years. It completely shocked me when it came back as strong as it did. You have to accept it and realize that it’s a part of you. Unfortunately it is very hard to do but that’s the way to get better. You have to learn how to live within it instead of fighting it every second. Fighting it will only make it worse. Your mind will get bored with it eventually and move on. Trust me, it will happen and you will get through it. Just have faith and don’t give up. You are not alone. Everyday I’m getting better and stronger. What has helped me is my belief in Jesus Christ and the support of my family. God bless everyone and I hope and pray for everyone’s wellbeing.
Great thinking, I have had tinnitus for18 years learned to accept it after a very hard time for over a year. But this last 16 years have been fine until now. A serious ongoing family issue has set my tinnitus spiking, it's hard, you are right but with help and right frame of mind it will settle.
After following your sage wisdom and "T" storm copping stratagies for many many years , I can honestly say Julian. This has truly taught me how to re-adjust my re-action filters. I wish I could blow that graph up and put it on my wall..Honestly.. the most useful road map to homeostasis a 20yr "T" bird like me can follow. Thank you Julian...From the bottom of my ears !
Just an absolutely amazing video. Julian is by far the individual who has helped me the most with Tinnitus and Hyperacusis. Keep on the good work - it is so deeply appreciated!
This man saved my life. My tinnitus was a 2-3 then shot up to easily an 8-9 after I had a loss within our family. I stumbled across his videos and what Julian’s said made perfect sense to me. I followed all his videos and nothing else. These days I don’t ever notice the tinnitus unless I’m in a silent room and I think hard about it!
Hi Julian. Just wanted to say that I am improving and I am very happy with my progress. More importantly, I wanted to say THANK YOU, for setting me on the path to healing. It’s been a long journey since I first reached out to you in early 2017. I took your advice (from our telephone chats) and your RUclips videos, and built on those suggestions. Some worked, some didn’t, but I kept pushing onward and I am so glad that I didn’t give up. Keep publishing these videos. They are a tremendous help to all of us.
Really glad to hear the information is helping you. Keep going! For more help and support without all the negativity on the net please download my app here: www.quietenapp.com There are live question and answer sessions there once every two weeks. Cheers Julian
Glad to hear it. You can also download my app where you can join question-and-answer sessions and listen to other people getting better too. www.quietenapp.com I tend to offer sessions every other Friday either at 9 am UK time or 6 pm UK time. Hope to see you there, best wishes Julian
Really glad to hear it. Keep on track and you can get back to quiet. If you want more up-to-date help, live-support or useful information please download the app www.quietenapp.com Come along to one of our live Q&A sessions every two weeks. Hope to see you there, Julian
You got me thru my first bought of T in mar of 2019 lasted 3 months finally habituated kept myself really busy thru it. Was really tough nonetheless took me to some dark places. Low and behold fractured my pelvis in 4 spots in Dec 2021 then finally got the covid Jan 2022 and all the sudden the T came back like a race car roaring it completely debilitated me for 2 weeks thought life was over but after processing everything and now 2 months in and your videos and Quieten app and Ben I’m getting on again. Meditation has helped me immensely I will continue with it the rest of my life. Thanks Julian.
So useful, Julian. I'm recovering from tinnitus but going trough so much tension in my eyes and I was looking for info that could help me understand. Thank you so much for this video. I'll watch it many times.
I’ve been having an existential crisis for the past few months (which has contributed to my tinnitus). Since I know your videos are soothing, I searched for a video on spirituality on your channel and fortunately there was one. I would love to hear more on that topic from you if you’re comfortable with sharing more.
Thank you Julian - your videos have been an inspiration to me. I have had mild tinnitus since my 20s but a month ago, I developed an echo in my right ear and my tinnitus in that ear went off the scale. I have an appointment with an ENT specialist but not until September. I am in the middle of a nasty divorce and my stress levels are so bad. I stumbled across this channel and I have now subscribed to the Quieten app. In the last couple of days I have managed to bring my stress levels down and I am trying to relax into the tinnitus. Today, I have been working all afternoon without my sound therapy masking app for the first time in a month. Although the sound is still with me, I find it a lot less irritating. I have a therapy session booked with a cranio-sacral therapist on Friday and I am feeling much more confident that I can cope with this.
So happy to hear your reactivity is coming down and that you are managing things better. This is a good step in the right direction. Understanding how it works and feeling less anxious helps a lot. Wishing you a wonderful CST session. I recommend highly doing the evening face massage on level one techniques on the app and the boatmast meditation on level four techniques every day. www.quietenapp.com Feel free to contact me if you would like to organise a session here: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk
This is a fabulous video..,so informative. I have Visual Snow Syndrome, high pitched tinnitus and disassociative disorder...I feel unreal all the time, like I'm completely numb ...It's been constant for 8 months. This has really helped. Thankyou 😊
Really glad you found it helpful. Sounds like you are in freeze mode. Can you find a good craniosacral therapist near you to help you settle back in? Also I recommend connecting with a therapist who does focussing work. There are many focussing groups around the work you can join. This gives you a way of anchoring into your positive resources first and then letting the difficult stuff process through gently in a very manageable way. If you would like more information about this please get in touch here: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk I want to reassure you that this is a changeable situation you are in. I have been through these experiences too. Wishing you an increasing sense of safety and well-being.
Very interesting and helpful for many - and many different levels to tinnitus. A person with ptsd and very loud Tinnitus with hearing loss can be a challenge!! Hearing aides do help but most ptsd suffers have a tendency that loud music or noise or some one drop a book or a child start screaming can cause you to about jump out of your skin.. the hearing aides are usually turned up all the way to decipher conversation amongst loud tenitits. Lisinting to green sound during sleep has given me from 4 to 5 hrs a night sleep to 6 to 8 hrs a night. The sound has to be louder than the tinnitus for my brain to tune out the noise. In past 12 years I fill I came a long way in past year listening and studying these broadcast. Thank you and continue. Fight or flight would be great with that off button as you say.
Thanks. You might like to watch my "What makes tinnitus loud?" video on my app. I looked at a lot of medical research regarding tinnitus, and drew some obvious conclusions that are very much in line with what I've discovered in my practice over the last 20 years. www.quietenapp.com I hope you find the information helpful. Best wishes Julian
Hola Julian antes que nada gracias por tus videos y consejos. vivo en México, estaba pasando por ansiedad y estrés y hace 10 días me dio Tinnitus, duermo poco por el zumbido en las noches que incrementa, y además siento que mi sensibilidad a los ruidos está en Fight flight mode desde hace unos 5 días. ya empecé a tomar CST y adicionalmente descargué tu app Quiten y estoy empezando a hacer las clases de Yoga que tienes ahí. Estoy seguro y dedicado a aliviarme de este síntoma Una pregunta, Saliendo del Fight Flight mode, se puede volver a un estado normal? Es decir, salir a un bar o a un restaurante sin problema ? Y las segunda pregunta, poniendo en práctica meditación, yoga y las terapias CST en cuánto tiempo puedo empezar a tener resultados satisfactorios? Tiempo estimado Gracias !!
Gracias por tu mensaje. Sí claro, puedes volver a la normalidad. Normalmente suele tardar seis meses más o menos. Te consejo de practicar el masaje en la cara todas las noches. Lo puedes encontrar en el Matrix en mi aplicación tocando la barra roja. Es el vídeo número ocho creo. Se llama the Evening Face Massage. También te consejo de practicar la meditación Boat Mast qué puedes encontrar en la cuarta sección verde en el Matrix. Es importante salir del Estado, luchar o huir Y también es imprescindible cambiar el modo de pensar completamente. En vez de buscar el zumbido por favor date un masaje en la cara, Y ten un buen estiramiento y bosteza y después seguir adelante con otra cosa. Espero que eso te ayude. Mando a mis saludos a México fantástico! Saludos Julian
good sir i wish you all the blessings i’ve been watching your videos and downloaded your app even though i’m sure my tinnitus is temporary.. you still gave me comfort.. help me understand that the only way there’s a light at the end is if you make on and go for it.. i still have trouble but i’m on day 7 and after getting my ears cleaned my T went from 7-8 to about 4 so assume mine isn’t so bad i just need to be more careful which i will.. thank you for the one thing that heals everyone.. hope.
Glad you find the information useful. Please find a really good hands on Therapist to help you relax deeply and practice some of the techniques on my app to help distract your mind away from the ringing and settle your nervous system. www.quietenapp.com Hope this helps, best wishes Julian
Thanks Julian. so.. let's forget about Mindfullnes? My question is this: What sticks is when in a calm mode the brain filters out what we do not need. Paradoxically enough when practising mindfullness or types of meditation you do the opposite: actively focussing on your senses to be more present in the now. I indeed found out this works counterproductive (!) to my hyperacusis. Desensitising due to a calm focus on work (using my prefrontal cortex) does much more for me in becoming less sensitive to sounds.
Hi Julian, thank you for this video. Do your suggestions also apply to pulsatile tinnitus? I've had numerous tests and scans and nothing serious was found. I've had regular tinnitus for years that I've dealt pretty well with, but the pulsatile tinnitus is very disturbing. I appreciate your advice! Thank you very much for your time.
Yes this applies to pulsatile tinnitus too. When your internal sensitivity calms down the sound gets filtered out of your awareness. Sometimes we can hear our heartbeat but most of the time we cannot. The heart doesn't stop beating. The awareness or monitoring of it switches off.
Julian, I have been tinnitus nearly free for 3 months (after a 3 years long battle and support by TRT) and unfirtunately a spike has arrived... i have gone back to your videos and I know I get the monster back to silence! God bless you!
Hola Juliann!!!por favor lo podes traducir al español el video?? Tengo tinitus y algunos que estan en español pero no este gracias gracias cariñis desde Argentina 🇦🇷
Puedes conseguir los subtítulos en español. Si haces clic sobre el botón "cc" y después puedes elegir el idioma de los subtítulos. Espero que esto le ayude. Saludos Julian
29:05 Hyperacusis ... can this be caused by as you explain being stuck in the flight and flight , or can it ALSO be caused by normal physical sound/hearing damage too?
Yes of course. It is still hypersensitivity. When it causes pain it is hyperacusis, when it causes noise it is tinnitus, but both are still the central nervous system ramping up the receptivity of the auditory system. Normal hearing damage causes deafness. Into the gap the brain overcompensates with tinnitus. With work distracting the focus away from the ears and settling the nervous system these temporary overcompensation patterns can settle too.
Hi Julian. The ringing in my ear started nearly 2 months after I self injured the side of my head out of anxiety from family issues, which caused wax to fall in my ear and the ringing started in one ear and came to both later, along with occasional pain in my neck, head and ears. I had my ears irrigated last week and the wax came out, but the ringing remains, even though I mainly just hear it at bedtime, morning or sat down. Do you have any advice on how to get back to silence again?
Yes. My app www.quietenapp.com is all about how to get back to silence again. Watch the first things first videos and then click on the matrix and click on each colour and work your way through the levels. It is really helpful to start practicing the techniques in each level. Please build up a toolbox of coping strategies to help shift your focus and settle the nervous system. If you need personal support please email me on info@juliancowanhill.co.uk and we can set up a session. Hope this helps and wishing you well, Julian
Yes, many. We need to clear ear infections asap. Go to your doctor and get help with this. Once the infection has cleared then any residual tinnitus can then settle.
@@JulianCowanHill I am under the care of an audiologist & GP. I am on my second round of antibiotics. Both ears infected and congested. Right ear chronic ringing and there is fluid build up. Ringing started after a sinus infection travelled into my ears. I am scared to death. 31 years old and trying to start a family. Having to put things on hold because of this mess and I don’t see any way out.
Once your infection has cleared it may be helpful for you to do some fasting and to take probiotics. If you have any history of candida or thrush then it may be useful to go onto a candida diet for a while. This is very detoxing and healthy and clears the ear nose and throat system really well. I recommend giving up sugar immediately and keeping your salt intake low. If you would like to talk about this in more detail please contact me here: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk and we can set up a session. I have a lot of personal experience with this myself. Wishing you well, Julian
I have been dealing with depersonalization and derealization for three months now but last week I had a panic attack and developed tinnitus. Is this something I can recover from if I bring my body back to rest and digest ?
Yes. Body-based therapy or body-based psychotherapy can be very helpful with this. Please get in touch with me here as I can help you find someone: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk
Yes. Work your way through the First Things First videos on my app www.quietenapp.com and this should help you understand what is going on and what to do. Best wishes Julian
My tinnitus has gone up lately and I can tell I have very much moved into a freeze state. It is hard to maintain hope that it will go back down. I have a massage scheduled for this evening. How can I move back into a safe state (and hope and pray the volume goes back down)? Thank you for all you do Julian
The whole of my app is an answer to this question: www.quietenapp.com If you want to organise a one-to-one session to talk this through in more details please get in touch via email here: info@Juliancowanhill.co.uk
Same approach but it takes longer to back off in my experience. Sorry to hear you are battling with this. If you need more support please get in touch with me via email: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk
Yes. Fear of sound is incredibly common when tinnitus is blazing. It is unusual in my mind not to be ultra-sensitive and fearful of sound while we are going through the acute phase of loud tinnitus. Many people have got better following the guidance and support, techniques and practices on my app www.quietenapp.com I have collected positive cases of people getting better for the last year or two and have collected a list with about 100 positive stories now. You can see this in the documents section in the "Positive Feedback" document or in the Positive Stories section at the end of the videos.
What is it when I lose ability to hear during very high stress situations? Or at least the ability to process sounds is gone, or sometimes ringing starts and just seems to overwhelm everything? Body feels heavy, difficult to move, difficult to take a full breathe, very heavy. Is that hyperarousal or hypoarousal?
Yes this is me, i got tinnitus in november it came after 14 days of little sleep becuse of hypnic jerks and brain zaps from stress and anxiety, now im in a state if a needle hit the floor at night, i Jump

What about a fluttering in your ear? My T is finally low I barely notice it. But for the past few months only once or twice a month I have a flutter that comes and goes. I’ve had a pretty rough 4 months. Had a miscarriage and two D&C surgeries. I was on some pretty potent antibiotics but have been off them for about 2 weeks. Is all this advice the same for the fluttering??
Sorry to hear about your struggles. Your system is bound to be a bit overwhelmed. Could you get some craniosacral therapy to help it settle? Fluttering could be stressed or tired auditory muscles quivering. Please do the evening face massage on my app level one techniques in the matrix every evening. www.quietenapp.com Good to take probiotics now you have finished your anti-biotics. Get in touch if you need a session to talk things through: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk Best wishes Julian
@@JulianCowanHill thank you SO much for replying!! I was waiting for you to answer! I will do as you suggest. Do you think it will ease up and go away?
Yes, if you help your nervous system settle and feel safe, calm and relaxed and learn to shift your attention away from your ears and learn to self-soothe there is a very good chance of getting better. You can learn how to do this from my app and by practicing the techniques here: www.quietenapp.com
As I am a survivor of SRA/MKUltra I would not normally buy a book from somebody with the name Rothschild but this looks absolutely fascinating and I will certainly be watching this video a few times. I ended up with tinnitus and deep vein thrombosis during lockdown and shortly after my dog died and I thought it was vaccine shedding after being in a car with vaccinated people but not so sure now as I was eating far too many carbs like everybody else at that time and I think it was probably related to insulin. I don’t know how to do links but you may be interested in a video on Dr Berg’s RUclips channel. “Tinnitus ringing in the ears is an insulin problem”, and also on his channel a video titled “dietary guidelines and junk science”- Dr Berg’s Skype interview with Ivor Cummins. Around 20 minutes into this they refer to Tinnitus and insulin. There was so much Tinnitus after the jab rolled out that I thought it was an adverse effect but, I am now thinking it may be more likely that it is all the comfort eating that everybody was doing during Covid that caused this. My sister has had tinnitus for some years and is a carb addict and so am I and I am doing intermittent fasting in fact OMAD one meal a day to deal with the insulin problem but struggling to give up the carbs. It was interesting the other day that when my cat escaped into the Central London streets, my Tinnitus stopped completely until I found him, so the adrenaline must have stopped it. I have never resolved the problem of living in fight flight freeze as a result of child abuse, and after 30 years of very determined recovery I am still an adrenaline junkie but more often in freeze from sheer exhaustion and age. I am determined to succeed with the low carb eating even if I can’t quite manage keto so will report back with my unscientific findings. Namaste 🙏
I think I could help you regarding the fight or flight response resulting from child abuse. So sorry to hear about that. If you are interested please can you get in touch with me here: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk I have a lot of experience in this area working as a psychotherapist. Wishing you well, Julian
Julian do you maybe know if sound sensitivity is similar to tinnitus? Cause I have both tinnitus and sound sensitivity, I hear sounds from one ear like a half broken radio. Is it coming from my red alert state as well? Do you think the sound sensitivity can go away like tinnitus?
Yes. All of this is about the sensitivity being ramped up. When you come out of fight or flight and the whole system settles down the brain stops listening to the background buzz and the sound sensitivity comes down.
@@JulianCowanHill thank you for the response. I think I am noticing a difference lately in that as well now that I doing my best in calming down my system.

I was in this flight mode since 2 years ... n which resulted in tinnitus... n it had become a loop... like anxiety tinnitus then anxiety n louder tinnitus . .. when i started relaxing n stopped getting anxieted ...my anxiety went down drastically.. tinnitus is still loud but i dont care it much now
I'm 17 yrs old in 1/25/2021 my left ear suddenly ring 3 days later it went to my right ear but no longer ringing instead buzzing I also fell unbalanced while walking but not dizziness whenever I swallow my saliva my ears clicking I already go to doctor but he only give me vitamins for unbalanced sorry for my English I'm still studying I'm sure my ear have fluid
Hello sometimes when my alarm goes off in the morning i keep hearing it when its stopped domt know weather its in my mind or what but its scares me anyone else experianced this
This is called an "ear worm" add is a common response to stress. This is only a temporary symptom. This is a common sign of stress. You are temporarily activated and so alert that you are hearing the memory system within your auditory network. Music can keep playing in your head for awhile. Please practice the techniques on my app. www.quietenapp.com Go in to the matrix and work your way through levels 1,2 and 3 and you will find certain practices that are really helpful for this. In essence the mental processes are dominating at the moment and you need to ground yourself back into the physical experience of the body. Try doing very slow movement for 20 minutes about the house or walking very slowly in a circle for quarter of an hour or the "sack of potatoes technique” at the end of level two, or the clench and relax technique in level one techniques. As you relax, settle and switch off the mind will stop racing and you will become more grounded in body-based experience. All hands on therapies can help this switch off and relax.

My 1st doc gave me bitahisten but not worked And 2nd doc gave me vit b12 pills My tinnitus is gradually getting better but i want complete silence While posting this comment i have a spike Plzz help me sir im 19 year old and wanted to be doctor but this t is affecting me im not able to study
Hi Julian, I'm hoping you can clarify your hearing loss in both ears. I know the loudspeaker was responsible for a 90% hearing loss in one ear. Curious about the hearing loss in the other. You had mentioned a time of great stress decades earlier. Is it possible you had an undiagnosed Sudden Hearing Loss? I know this can be caused by excessive stress and would explain the hearing loss and ensuing Tinnitus. Thanks for yet another excellent video.
I had lots of ear infections and glue ear as a child. I also had heavy duty 1970's style antibiotics which I believe may have damaged my hearing. I also have recurring candidiasis to this day which blocks my ears and head up for periods of time. I had a stressful childhood which no doubt contributed in some form but I don't remember suddenly going deaf.
Thanks for your reply. Any chance you'd consider a long form video dedicated solely to Tinnitus caused by hearing loss? If the number is to be believed then 80% of Tinnitus is caused by this and seems to be the trickiest to manage.
Happy to organise a session with you online if you'd like. I have hearing loss myself and have worked a lot with this..I charge £80 per hour. Please get in touch here if you are interested: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk
Whem i am at work using power tools if im stressed the sound from the power tools spikes my tinnitus even with ear defenders, and when im not stressed it never spikes. I first tuned into it 4 years ago i have moderate hearing loss in right ear which meanis i can tune it into a lot easier i managed to tune out for two and half of them years now im back in again. I spent most of my life in flight or fight mode (gad) i never step over any line and i would always worry what other people think about me.
Here's a funny and crazy storing. I watched an Instagram video of a man who went to the hospital because of his tinnitus. In the next video he said they found cancer in his spine. That video Disturbed me that night. I couldn't sleep and the next morning I've had tinnitus for 2 weeks now. Strong high pitch like I've never had before. Proof that this stuff is directly linked to anxiety. Now I'm just waiting for it to go away
@@ela88883 I had it before about 2 years ago When I was going through about of high stress symptoms. I was getting dizziness and blurred vision, weird skin sensations and I had tinnitus. I didn't even care about the tinnitus then and it just went away on its own. Turned out everything was just stress and I've been good for 2 years up until now
Thank you so much for your video I’ve suffered from tinnitus for 12 years I also have severe panic attacks I lost my 32 year old son in 20019 very tragically 🥹
So sorry to hear about your loss. Please accept my condolences. If you would like to have some support I can offer you online sessions. Please get in touch by email here info@juliancowanhill.co.uk wishing you well Julian
My tinnitus has reduced DRASTICALLY over the past couple of years. Healing is possible. Thank you Julian.
How?
@@debwaite3752 Changing my diet in order to reduce inflammation was helpful. I cut out processed foods and sugar. The most helpful thing was changing how I reacted to anxiety. Learning how to calm my nervous system and address the things that were making my anxious quieted my tinnitus gradually, but over time, very significantly. Finally, I religiously wear hearing protection in loud environments. I hope that helps!
So happy for you - mine has reduced drastically too 💫 I am also appreciative beyond words for what Julian has done for us all these years 💖
@@debwaite3752 I don't think there is one answer, for me the relaxing techniques Julian teaches- like the Clench and release - and yoga nidra found on youtube, I was able to relax my body and gradually step out of fight/flight/freeze mode. That way our brain can let go of the hyperfocus inward, and start to again look outwards, and the sounds can be faded out as they are no longer considered important by the brain. 💖
Mine too. I don't even notice it anymore even when i am spiking
Hi Julian. MY TIME HAS COME! I had extreme severe tinnitus for 22 months. Now i can say that its gone. I have gained back my peaceful life. And by god do i have to thank you for your advise and hope! For your game changing sience that made so much sense to me! Thank you and god bless you friend!
Leave your ears alone is what you said and this is what i did for the last 12 months. People let me tell you no matter what caused your tinnitus it doesent mean it stays for your whole life. You just have to free yourself of its grips and be patient. I work in a loud factory everyday. I go to the shooting range and did it even when my ears were ringing constantly because i didnt care anymore! I wanted to gain my old life back again. And i ate and drank wathever i wanted because i didnt want it to link it with tinnitus and ending up thinking of it every day! Enjoy your life and time given to this world against all odds. Change your behaving towards stress and negative influence. Find your very personal calmness. Be kind to yourself. And you will see the end of the tunnel one day. Whenever my tinnitus was at its worst i told myself: MY TIME WILL COME!
Really glad to hear this. Its such a relief isn't it!
If you would like to leave a short video in my positive tinnitus story section please get in touch here: pinfo@juliancowanhill.co.uk It really helps others hearing positive tinnitus stories.
Thank you for your testimony. It gives hope. It's very usefull to read this kind of messages. I will leave mine too at the right time !
This is also my experience - I just had to go through horrible anxiety and insomnia for almost a year before I actually could manage to start to care less. So much with the help of Julian and learning to relax. After 2.5 years it's only audible at night and I have "my life" back.
How did u manage ur stress towards tinnitus n have u wreally got rid og it?
Yes I've lived a largely quiet life since 2002. You could learn about the practicalities of how to do this on my app here: www.quietenapp.com or you can read my in-depth story of how I went to Hell and back and recovered here: www.amazon.co.uk/Long-Tide-Silence-Julian-Cowan/dp/1718949936/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=julian+cowan+hill&qid=1653032215&sprefix=Julian+cowan%2Caps%2C59&sr=8-2
I just wanted to thank you Julian, your videos saved me, possibly even my life. 1 year ago the stress from self isolation and a bad work review combined with the way I have always internalized life stress and ratched up stress on myself triggered a heavy bout of Tinnitus that wouldn't stop for the first time in my life. I didn't realize but the more I focused on it, the louder it felt, and as a musician with eagle like hearing I found it extremely terrifying, waking me up in the middle of the night so I couldn't even get a night's sleep. I was in terror and I was so tired I just wanted it to stop any way I could get it to do so. I went to an audiologist and they said I just had to live with it - the worst thing anyone can tell someone with a new bout of persistent Tinnitus. It wasn't until I went on a hiatus and moved temporarily back home to my home town and started watching your videos that I started to understand what was happening and how my brain was reacting and developing a sort of hyperacusis... my father would take me for a ride in the car and I was even terrified of the sound the car made when it was going over little bumps or potholes in the road - thinking it was so loud it was damaging my hearing worse (which sounds crazy, but my brain was playing tricks on my and hyper focused because I was so terrified).
If it wasn't for finding your channel especially, as well as other positive youtubers like Joey Remeny & Ben Thompson to give me hope I would probably have lost my job, and ruined my life - at best. But thanks to you, I started realizing that just by watching your videos for a few minutes the ringing would start to go down, to a point where I can now go days without it bothering me at all. Sometimes I can literally stop and say "Can I hear it?" and I hear nothing at all. Other days it's harder to completely ignore but your techniques help considerably - and once I ignore it, it often goes away.
I have totally changed my approach to tinnitus, and changed the way I deal with stress in my life overall, thanks to you. I'm getting back to going out and doing the things I love, like going out to bars (with earplugs!), and sometimes playing my piano - slowly, and steadily, testing the waters, because I don't want to trigger a new bout of crisis - I thought it would never go away, and it has gotten MUCH significantly better. Your teachings have changed my life and taught me to change the way I allow my brain to deal with stress, which was having negative repercussions on my relationships as well (no one wants to be around a stress case all the time anyway!)
I often now describe Tinnitus to people who don't experience that as similar to when you're a child and scrape your knee - if you don't notice it, you don't even feel it, but the moment you look down and notice it, it's the more painful thing in the world.
So thank you Julian, you are kind of a true Shaman of sorts, a guru and a healer of souls... Thank you for your vital assistance that you have given to me and everyone else who benefits from your channel, personal story and wisdom. God bless and thank you humbly. ✌❤🩹🙏
Thank you so much for sharing your positive story. It will be really inspiring for others. Maybe you could send me a video of your experience and I can put it on the video section. Really happy that you are doing so well. Good for you. Keep up the good work on yourself! Wishing you well Julian
Wow, this is me thank you how long did you suffer am 7 months in.🙏
Wow thank you am 7months in and struggling badly looking for help everywhere.🙏
Listen to what this man says. He’s absolutely right. I’ve had tinnitus for 12 years. I’ve recently had a massive spike which sent me into a depression and anxiety state. I have it in my left ear. I had it habituated for about 11 years. It completely shocked me when it came back as strong as it did. You have to accept it and realize that it’s a part of you. Unfortunately it is very hard to do but that’s the way to get better. You have to learn how to live within it instead of fighting it every second. Fighting it will only make it worse. Your mind will get bored with it eventually and move on. Trust me, it will happen and you will get through it. Just have faith and don’t give up. You are not alone. Everyday I’m getting better and stronger. What has helped me is my belief in Jesus Christ and the support of my family. God bless everyone and I hope and pray for everyone’s wellbeing.
Great thinking, I have had tinnitus for18 years learned to accept it after a very hard time for over a year. But this last 16 years have been fine until now. A serious ongoing family issue has set my tinnitus spiking, it's hard, you are right but with help and right frame of mind it will settle.
Well said pal ❤️
After following your sage wisdom and "T" storm copping stratagies for many many years , I can honestly say Julian. This has truly taught me how to re-adjust my re-action filters. I wish I could blow that graph up and put it on my wall..Honestly.. the most useful road map to homeostasis a 20yr "T" bird like me can follow. Thank you Julian...From the bottom of my ears !
Just an absolutely amazing video. Julian is by far the individual who has helped me the most with Tinnitus and Hyperacusis. Keep on the good work - it is so deeply appreciated!
Thanks Julian the only true helpful guy on tinnitus, and 2 more ,who helps people for nothing, god bless you 🙏 all
This man saved my life. My tinnitus was a 2-3 then shot up to easily an 8-9 after I had a loss within our family.
I stumbled across his videos and what Julian’s said made perfect sense to me. I followed all his videos and nothing else. These days I don’t ever notice the tinnitus unless I’m in a silent room and I think hard about it!
Sounds like yours just slowly dissipated over time
Hi Julian. Just wanted to say that I am improving and I am very happy with my progress. More importantly, I wanted to say THANK YOU, for setting me on the path to healing. It’s been a long journey since I first reached out to you in early 2017. I took your advice (from our telephone chats) and your RUclips videos, and built on those suggestions. Some worked, some didn’t, but I kept pushing onward and I am so glad that I didn’t give up.
Keep publishing these videos. They are a tremendous help to all of us.
Really glad to hear the information is helping you. Keep going! For more help and support without all the negativity on the net please download my app here: www.quietenapp.com

Once again, an informative commentary. You are a great asset to the "T" community. Thanks Julian.
I just found your videos. Im so thankful to know I’m not alone. Just listening to you speak about it helps. Thank you
Glad to hear it. You can also download my app where you can join question-and-answer sessions and listen to other people getting better too. www.quietenapp.com I tend to offer sessions every other Friday either at 9 am UK time or 6 pm UK time. Hope to see you there, best wishes Julian
@@JulianCowanHill I did sign up. I look forward to learning more. I really want to get better. I appreciate this approach you have. It's soothing
This is crazy just listening to this first video is making it go away. You are a gem.
Really glad to hear it. Keep on track and you can get back to quiet. If you want more up-to-date help, live-support or useful information please download the app www.quietenapp.com Come along to one of our live Q&A sessions every two weeks. Hope to see you there, Julian
You got me thru my first bought of T in mar of 2019 lasted 3 months finally habituated kept myself really busy thru it. Was really tough nonetheless took me to some dark places. Low and behold fractured my pelvis in 4 spots in Dec 2021 then finally got the covid Jan 2022 and all the sudden the T came back like a race car roaring it completely debilitated me for 2 weeks thought life was over but after processing everything and now 2 months in and your videos and Quieten app and Ben I’m getting on again. Meditation has helped me immensely I will continue with it the rest of my life. Thanks Julian.
Really glad to hear this information has helped you.
So useful, Julian. I'm recovering from tinnitus but going trough so much tension in my eyes and I was looking for info that could help me understand. Thank you so much for this video. I'll watch it many times.
Julien, your videos have really really helped me, thank you so very much
I’ve been having an existential crisis for the past few months (which has contributed to my tinnitus). Since I know your videos are soothing, I searched for a video on spirituality on your channel and fortunately there was one.
I would love to hear more on that topic from you if you’re comfortable with sharing more.
I did this one a long time ago! ruclips.net/video/iuA4wb71Z-8/видео.html
Thank you Julian - your videos have been an inspiration to me. I have had mild tinnitus since my 20s but a month ago, I developed an echo in my right ear and my tinnitus in that ear went off the scale. I have an appointment with an ENT specialist but not until September. I am in the middle of a nasty divorce and my stress levels are so bad. I stumbled across this channel and I have now subscribed to the Quieten app. In the last couple of days I have managed to bring my stress levels down and I am trying to relax into the tinnitus. Today, I have been working all afternoon without my sound therapy masking app for the first time in a month. Although the sound is still with me, I find it a lot less irritating. I have a therapy session booked with a cranio-sacral therapist on Friday and I am feeling much more confident that I can cope with this.
So happy to hear your reactivity is coming down and that you are managing things better. This is a good step in the right direction. Understanding how it works and feeling less anxious helps a lot. Wishing you a wonderful CST session. I recommend highly doing the evening face massage on level one techniques on the app and the boatmast meditation on level four techniques every day. www.quietenapp.com Feel free to contact me if you would like to organise a session here: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk
Wishing you a steady recovery. Best wishes Julian
This is a fabulous video..,so informative. I have Visual Snow Syndrome, high pitched tinnitus and disassociative disorder...I feel unreal all the time, like I'm completely numb ...It's been constant for 8 months. This has really helped. Thankyou 😊
Really glad you found it helpful. Sounds like you are in freeze mode. Can you find a good craniosacral therapist near you to help you settle back in? Also I recommend connecting with a therapist who does focussing work. There are many focussing groups around the work you can join. This gives you a way of anchoring into your positive resources first and then letting the difficult stuff process through gently in a very manageable way. If you would like more information about this please get in touch here: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk I want to reassure you that this is a changeable situation you are in. I have been through these experiences too. Wishing you an increasing sense of safety and well-being.
That’s exactly how I feel! Stressed and so anxious and numb plus I have white snow too
Very interesting and helpful for many - and many different levels to tinnitus. A person with ptsd and very loud Tinnitus with hearing loss can be a challenge!! Hearing aides do help but most ptsd suffers have a tendency that loud music or noise or some one drop a book or a child start screaming can cause you to about jump out of your skin.. the hearing aides are usually turned up all the way to decipher conversation amongst loud tenitits. Lisinting to green sound during sleep has given me from 4 to 5 hrs a night sleep to 6 to 8 hrs a night. The sound has to be louder than the tinnitus for my brain to tune out the noise. In past 12 years I fill I came a long way in past year listening and studying these broadcast. Thank you and continue. Fight or flight would be great with that off button as you say.
Great information. Thanks again for making this available.
Greetings ! I Been Watching Your Great Videos On Tinnitus .
Gracias Julián sos lo máximo. Enormemente agradecido por tu gran profesionalismo y tu mensaje altamente positivo
Best of them all for advice god bless you 🙏 Julian
Thanks. You might like to watch my "What makes tinnitus loud?" video on my app. I looked at a lot of medical research regarding tinnitus, and drew some obvious conclusions that are very much in line with what I've discovered in my practice over the last 20 years. www.quietenapp.com
I hope you find the information helpful. Best wishes Julian
@Julian Cowan Hill thanks a million Julian kind regards, hope you're doing great 👍
Great video, Julian.
Hola Julian antes que nada gracias por tus videos y consejos.
vivo en México, estaba pasando por ansiedad y estrés y hace 10 días me dio Tinnitus, duermo poco por el zumbido en las noches que incrementa, y además siento que mi sensibilidad a los ruidos está en Fight flight mode desde hace unos 5 días.
ya empecé a tomar CST y adicionalmente descargué tu app Quiten y estoy empezando a hacer las clases de Yoga que tienes ahí.
Estoy seguro y dedicado a aliviarme de este síntoma
Una pregunta, Saliendo del Fight Flight mode, se puede volver a un estado normal? Es decir, salir a un bar o a un restaurante sin problema ?
Y las segunda pregunta, poniendo en práctica meditación, yoga y las terapias CST en cuánto tiempo puedo empezar a tener resultados satisfactorios? Tiempo estimado
Gracias !!
Gracias por tu mensaje. Sí claro, puedes volver a la normalidad. Normalmente suele tardar seis meses más o menos. Te consejo de practicar el masaje en la cara todas las noches. Lo puedes encontrar en el Matrix en mi aplicación tocando la barra roja. Es el vídeo número ocho creo. Se llama the Evening Face Massage. También te consejo de practicar la meditación Boat Mast qué puedes encontrar en la cuarta sección verde en el Matrix. Es importante salir del Estado, luchar o huir Y también es imprescindible cambiar el modo de pensar completamente. En vez de buscar el zumbido por favor date un masaje en la cara, Y ten un buen estiramiento y bosteza y después seguir adelante con otra cosa. Espero que eso te ayude. Mando a mis saludos a México fantástico! Saludos Julian
good sir i wish you all the blessings i’ve been watching your videos and downloaded your app even though i’m sure my tinnitus is temporary.. you still gave me comfort.. help me understand that the only way there’s a light at the end is if you make on and go for it.. i still have trouble but i’m on day 7 and after getting my ears cleaned my T went from 7-8 to about 4 so assume mine isn’t so bad i just need to be more careful which i will.. thank you for the one thing that heals everyone.. hope.
Glad you find the information useful. Please find a really good hands on Therapist to help you relax deeply and practice some of the techniques on my app to help distract your mind away from the ringing and settle your nervous system. www.quietenapp.com
Hope this helps, best wishes
Julian
Julian youre videos are great. Please keep posting more of those videos… thank you
Just fantastic, what a lesson, thank you Julian
Very interesting, Julian!
Thanks Julian. so.. let's forget about Mindfullnes? My question is this: What sticks is when in a calm mode the brain filters out what we do not need. Paradoxically enough when practising mindfullness or types of meditation you do the opposite: actively focussing on your senses to be more present in the now.
I indeed found out this works counterproductive (!) to my hyperacusis. Desensitising due to a calm focus on work (using my prefrontal cortex) does much more for me in becoming less sensitive to sounds.
Hi Julian. This has been very helpful to me. Thank you.
This explains exactly how I feel
Thank you make me understand what could help me, 🙏
Hayyy Julian after long enough time.thanks for your video.from Pakistan
Hope you like the video. I don't post match on RUclips the stairs as I've put all my new material into my app here: www.quietenapp.com
@@JulianCowanHill I am your regular follower since 2019.your videos helped me a lot in understanding and managing my tinnitus.
Can you tell me how to turn off the flight or fight and freeze response ?
Please download my app and follow the guidance there: the whole app is about coming out of fight or flight. www.quietenapp.com
Hi Julian, thank you for this video. Do your suggestions also apply to pulsatile tinnitus? I've had numerous tests and scans and nothing serious was found. I've had regular tinnitus for years that I've dealt pretty well with, but the pulsatile tinnitus is very disturbing. I appreciate your advice! Thank you very much for your time.
Yes this applies to pulsatile tinnitus too. When your internal sensitivity calms down the sound gets filtered out of your awareness. Sometimes we can hear our heartbeat but most of the time we cannot. The heart doesn't stop beating. The awareness or monitoring of it switches off.
@@JulianCowanHill, thank you for your reply. Your knowledge and encouragement is very helpful. May the Lord bless you!
Buenas tardes Julian gravias por sus videos yo hablo español ..favor enviarlos en español

29:05 Hyperacusis ... can this be caused by as you explain being stuck in the flight and flight , or can it ALSO be caused by normal physical sound/hearing damage too?
Yes of course. It is still hypersensitivity. When it causes pain it is hyperacusis, when it causes noise it is tinnitus, but both are still the central nervous system ramping up the receptivity of the auditory system. Normal hearing damage causes deafness. Into the gap the brain overcompensates with tinnitus. With work distracting the focus away from the ears and settling the nervous system these temporary overcompensation patterns can settle too.
This is extremely helpful
Julian sir how to manage studies besides tinnitus
Great video very informative 👍🏼
Thank you so much. Very helpful. I developed hyperacusis…. I am working on relaxing my nervous system and it is reducing
Hi Julian. The ringing in my ear started nearly 2 months after I self injured the side of my head out of anxiety from family issues, which caused wax to fall in my ear and the ringing started in one ear and came to both later, along with occasional pain in my neck, head and ears. I had my ears irrigated last week and the wax came out, but the ringing remains, even though I mainly just hear it at bedtime, morning or sat down. Do you have any advice on how to get back to silence again?
Yes. My app www.quietenapp.com is all about how to get back to silence again. Watch the first things first videos and then click on the matrix and click on each colour and work your way through the levels. It is really helpful to start practicing the techniques in each level. Please build up a toolbox of coping strategies to help shift your focus and settle the nervous system. If you need personal support please email me on info@juliancowanhill.co.uk and we can set up a session. Hope this helps and wishing you well, Julian
What about tinnitus due to middle ear infection? Have you had any patients with this?
Yes, many. We need to clear ear infections asap. Go to your doctor and get help with this. Once the infection has cleared then any residual tinnitus can then settle.
@@JulianCowanHill I am under the care of an audiologist & GP. I am on my second round of antibiotics. Both ears infected and congested. Right ear chronic ringing and there is fluid build up. Ringing started after a sinus infection travelled into my ears. I am scared to death. 31 years old and trying to start a family. Having to put things on hold because of this mess and I don’t see any way out.
Once your infection has cleared it may be helpful for you to do some fasting and to take probiotics. If you have any history of candida or thrush then it may be useful to go onto a candida diet for a while. This is very detoxing and healthy and clears the ear nose and throat system really well. I recommend giving up sugar immediately and keeping your salt intake low. If you would like to talk about this in more detail please contact me here: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk and we can set up a session. I have a lot of personal experience with this myself. Wishing you well, Julian
I have been dealing with depersonalization and derealization for three months now but last week I had a panic attack and developed tinnitus. Is this something I can recover from if I bring my body back to rest and digest ?
Yes. Body-based therapy or body-based psychotherapy can be very helpful with this. Please get in touch with me here as I can help you find someone: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk
I've got tinnitus since fed. It's got better but. I find it very bad at night. Can you help
Yes. Work your way through the First Things First videos on my app www.quietenapp.com and this should help you understand what is going on and what to do. Best wishes Julian
GOD I hope to be there one day.
My tinnitus has gone up lately and I can tell I have very much moved into a freeze state. It is hard to maintain hope that it will go back down. I have a massage scheduled for this evening. How can I move back into a safe state (and hope and pray the volume goes back down)? Thank you for all you do Julian

Hi Julia. What about tinnitus after covid any input ? This is what I’m battling
Same approach but it takes longer to back off in my experience. Sorry to hear you are battling with this. If you need more support please get in touch with me via email: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk
Have you had anyone make a full recovery from both tinnitus and misophonia?
Yes. Fear of sound is incredibly common when tinnitus is blazing. It is unusual in my mind not to be ultra-sensitive and fearful of sound while we are going through the acute phase of loud tinnitus. Many people have got better following the guidance and support, techniques and practices on my app www.quietenapp.com I have collected positive cases of people getting better for the last year or two and have collected a list with about 100 positive stories now. You can see this in the documents section in the "Positive Feedback" document or in the Positive Stories section at the end of the videos.
What is it when I lose ability to hear during very high stress situations? Or at least the ability to process sounds is gone, or sometimes ringing starts and just seems to overwhelm everything? Body feels heavy, difficult to move, difficult to take a full breathe, very heavy. Is that hyperarousal or hypoarousal?
Sounds like the freeze response which is hypoarousal. Hope the talk helps. Best wishes Julian
T’s and S’s are painful for me to hear due to my tinnitus, anyway to gain relief from that?

Everytime my T Lowers (which is very rare) I tend to feel quite unbalanced. Why this is happening?
What about a fluttering in your ear? My T is finally low I barely notice it. But for the past few months only once or twice a month I have a flutter that comes and goes. I’ve had a pretty rough 4 months. Had a miscarriage and two D&C surgeries. I was on some pretty potent antibiotics but have been off them for about 2 weeks. Is all this advice the same for the fluttering??
Sorry to hear about your struggles. Your system is bound to be a bit overwhelmed. Could you get some craniosacral therapy to help it settle? Fluttering could be stressed or tired auditory muscles quivering. Please do the evening face massage on my app level one techniques in the matrix every evening. www.quietenapp.com Good to take probiotics now you have finished your anti-biotics. Get in touch if you need a session to talk things through: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk Best wishes Julian
@@JulianCowanHill thank you SO much for replying!! I was waiting for you to answer! I will do as you suggest. Do you think it will ease up and go away?
Yes, if you help your nervous system settle and feel safe, calm and relaxed and learn to shift your attention away from your ears and learn to self-soothe there is a very good chance of getting better. You can learn how to do this from my app and by practicing the techniques here: www.quietenapp.com
As I am a survivor of SRA/MKUltra I would not normally buy a book from somebody with the name Rothschild but this looks absolutely fascinating and I will certainly be watching this video a few times. I ended up with tinnitus and deep vein thrombosis during lockdown and shortly after my dog died and I thought it was vaccine shedding after being in a car with vaccinated people but not so sure now as I was eating far too many carbs like everybody else at that time and I think it was probably related to insulin. I don’t know how to do links but you may be interested in a video on Dr Berg’s RUclips channel. “Tinnitus ringing in the ears is an insulin problem”, and also on his channel a video titled “dietary guidelines and junk science”- Dr Berg’s Skype interview with Ivor Cummins. Around 20 minutes into this they refer to Tinnitus and insulin. There was so much Tinnitus after the jab rolled out that I thought it was an adverse effect but, I am now thinking it may be more likely that it is all the comfort eating that everybody was doing during Covid that caused this.
My sister has had tinnitus for some years and is a carb addict and so am I and I am doing intermittent fasting in fact OMAD one meal a day to deal with the insulin problem but struggling to give up the carbs. It was interesting the other day that when my cat escaped into the Central London streets, my Tinnitus stopped completely until I found him, so the adrenaline must have stopped it. I have never resolved the problem of living in fight flight freeze as a result of child abuse, and after 30 years of very determined recovery I am still an adrenaline junkie but more often in freeze from sheer exhaustion and age. I am determined to succeed with the low carb eating even if I can’t quite manage keto so will report back with my unscientific findings. Namaste 🙏
I think I could help you regarding the fight or flight response resulting from child abuse. So sorry to hear about that. If you are interested please can you get in touch with me here: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk I have a lot of experience in this area working as a psychotherapist. Wishing you well, Julian
Julian do you maybe know if sound sensitivity is similar to tinnitus? Cause I have both tinnitus and sound sensitivity, I hear sounds from one ear like a half broken radio. Is it coming from my red alert state as well? Do you think the sound sensitivity can go away like tinnitus?
Yes. All of this is about the sensitivity being ramped up. When you come out of fight or flight and the whole system settles down the brain stops listening to the background buzz and the sound sensitivity comes down.

Hello sometimes when my alarm goes off in the morning i keep hearing it when its stopped domt know weather its in my mind or what but its scares me anyone else experianced this
This is called an "ear worm" add is a common response to stress. This is only a temporary symptom. This is a common sign of stress. You are temporarily activated and so alert that you are hearing the memory system within your auditory network. Music can keep playing in your head for awhile.
Please practice the techniques on my app. www.quietenapp.com
Go in to the matrix and work your way through levels 1,2 and 3 and you will find certain practices that are really helpful for this.
In essence the mental processes are dominating at the moment and you need to ground yourself back into the physical experience of the body.
Try doing very slow movement for 20 minutes about the house or walking very slowly in a circle for quarter of an hour or the "sack of potatoes technique” at the end of level two, or the clench and relax technique in level one techniques.
As you relax, settle and switch off the mind will stop racing and you will become more grounded in body-based experience. All hands on therapies can help this switch off and relax. If you need personal support please get in touch here: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk

@@ІаТ-в8щ How brother. Can you tell me which medicine can you used.please reply me
Hi Julian, I'm hoping you can clarify your hearing loss in both ears. I know the loudspeaker was responsible for a 90% hearing loss in one ear. Curious about the hearing loss in the other. You had mentioned a time of great stress decades earlier. Is it possible you had an undiagnosed Sudden Hearing Loss? I know this can be caused by excessive stress and would explain the hearing loss and ensuing Tinnitus. Thanks for yet another excellent video.
I had lots of ear infections and glue ear as a child. I also had heavy duty 1970's style antibiotics which I believe may have damaged my hearing. I also have recurring candidiasis to this day which blocks my ears and head up for periods of time. I had a stressful childhood which no doubt contributed in some form but I don't remember suddenly going deaf.
Thanks for your reply. Any chance you'd consider a long form video dedicated solely to Tinnitus caused by hearing loss? If the number is to be believed then 80% of Tinnitus is caused by this and seems to be the trickiest to manage.
Happy to organise a session with you online if you'd like. I have hearing loss myself and have worked a lot with this..I charge £80 per hour. Please get in touch here if you are interested: info@juliancowanhill.co.uk
Whem i am at work using power tools if im stressed the sound from the power tools spikes my tinnitus even with ear defenders, and when im not stressed it never spikes. I first tuned into it 4 years ago i have moderate hearing loss in right ear which meanis i can tune it into a lot easier i managed to tune out for two and half of them years now im back in again. I spent most of my life in flight or fight mode (gad) i never step over any line and i would always worry what other people think about me.
Here's a funny and crazy storing.
I watched an Instagram video of a man who went to the hospital because of his tinnitus.
In the next video he said they found cancer in his spine.
That video Disturbed me that night. I couldn't sleep and the next morning I've had tinnitus for 2 weeks now. Strong high pitch like I've never had before. Proof that this stuff is directly linked to anxiety. Now I'm just waiting for it to go away
Did you had tinnitus before? Or you got it for the first time?
@@ela88883 I had it before about 2 years ago When I was going through about of high stress symptoms. I was getting dizziness and blurred vision, weird skin sensations and I had tinnitus. I didn't even care about the tinnitus then and it just went away on its own.
Turned out everything was just stress and I've been good for 2 years up until now
Thank you so much for your video I’ve suffered from tinnitus for 12 years I also have severe panic attacks I lost my 32 year old son in 20019 very tragically 🥹
So sorry to hear about your loss. Please accept my condolences. If you would like to have some support I can offer you online sessions. Please get in touch by email here info@juliancowanhill.co.uk wishing you well Julian
So sorry for your loss x
how awful, im so sorry.
