_How do you cope with your tinnitus?_
Vipassana meditation
That’s brilliant Matthew. It’s super interesting knowing that we’re not alone with the tinnitus. Congrats for the interview, it’s amazing👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for watching Carla :)
Great video Matthew & Jamie :) A great in-depth and informative talk
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching. There's far more to come.
Nice work mate! Really interesting
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching Cam!
The clickbait title is misleading!!
From listening to this full interview I have come to the conclusion that he actually still does have tinnitus but has the tools not to focus on it. I have tinnitus for 25 years. Caused by noise induced hearing loss from not wearing proper ear protection. In the last couple of years my right ear has got really bad. The volume of ringing is really high. I will definitely try some of the techniques he has mentioned.
When I go out to the pub to socialize I will wear ear plugs. Everyone should. It's surprising how much easier it is to have a conversation in a loud environment like a crowded pub when using them. You can hear everyone perfect and no need to shout.
When it comes to food I find eating a lot of sugar or salt can make the tinnitus volume high. Just eat good wholesome foods. Avoid added sugar and salt ,sweets, chocolates, fizzy drinks etc.
All the best. JohnO
Hi John
That's for taking the time to comment. I'm afraid I have to disagree, the title is 100% on point. Without being able to go into too much detail Jamie has done incredibly well to detach himself from the negative influences of his tinnitus. Which I can also echo with my experiences with tinnitus too.
I do agree with all of your other points! Thank you for sharing :) Matthew
@@TheHearingGuy Hi Matthew. But he still has tinnitus. This means he can hear it if he wants but chooses not too. No such a thing as silence if you have tinnitus. EXAMPLE: I can hear it in my ears right now as I talk about it to you. This is because I am paying attention to it as I write this comment. In another few minutes when I get busy working again I will not notice it, but it is still there. So there is no such thing as silence when you have tinnitus. :)
@@JohnOsCreations thanks again. No worries we’ll disagree. The main thing is that his tinnitus no longer owns him. Have a great day
I gave up music 13 years ago after getting tinnitus. I really miss it.
I'm really sorry to hear that you've had to change your lifestyle as a result of your tinnitus Aaron.
I got tinnitus nearly 2 years ago. I've slowly gotten use to it however, I'm experiencing intermittent clicking/thumping sounds and it's far worse than the constant ringing, it feels like my eardrum is spasming. I've spoken to an audiologist about it but they weren't much help and just told me to ignore it.
Hey Rupe, I'm sorry to hear this. You need to be sat in front of the right audiologist. I hope that you find someone that can help. Thanks for watching.
Same thing happens to me! It almost feel like a flippin’ creepy little bug in there.
for me it's both stress and sound. i wear earplugs and earmuffs when vacuuming, using the blender, etc. it all helps. white noise machine is good too. good points about not going too loud. i play guitar and every 6 months, when I am feeling great, I turn it up and then suffer for days or weeks after. ive had it about a decade- get used to it most days as long as i don't push it. it's a drag though since i was finally getting good at guitar to be so limited e.g., can't play with a band or I will pay big time afterwards.
Hey DG
Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences. I hope that you are able to stay on to p of your tinnitus. Thanks for watching, Matthew
@@TheHearingGuy I stay on top as much as it stays on top of me. Some days are better than others. I can even achieve silent periods which I value. Not sure the mechanism of action on play there- would like to figure it out, bottle and sell it. When it feels good, like today, I tend to push it e.g., play my guitar a little loud and it comes right back. It's a tricky thing. Wearing ear plugs helps. Stress also has some strange connection to it. In some ways I like it- it's a built in stress detector. It's just a drag not being able to play my music how I would like to (w/both ears and no plugs at a decent volume.) I suppose my condition keeps my wife and my neighbors happy.
@@MOAB-UT how are you now?
Does Jamie use hearing aids? If so, which model?
Hey Mark, Thanks for watching. Sorry I can't talk about specifics on the channel.
I suffering from tinnitus and it ruined my life, now I having serious stomach problems, I tried everything and I don't know what to do, I just this is the end, I lost my job and now I have no place to go, I just sing that Bill Gates or Elunk Musk got tinnitus it will be a CURE,
Hey Erice, I'm so sorry to hear that. Have you been to see a professional about it? Thanks, Matthew
How u doing? I hope you're doing better
Try making peace with it. Tinnitus becomes a horrible cycle because the more you hate it the more it attacks you. Vipassana meditation helped me a lot because it’s about observing the sensations (including your tinnitus) and making peace with it. After I did a 10 day retreat it literally reduced like a 80%. Not saying that the solution is this technique. Just that making peace with it and accepting it makes things much easier. Things will get better ❤️🩹
I wanted to be a noisemaker. Ive played some years and since 2005 my brain became a real noisemaker Indeed. My T is always off the charts. I wanted to be so much a noisemaker like William Reid that God hear it and gave me like 2 Shin Ei fuzz wah in each ear
Thanks for watching theWARMJET!
He looks like Stuart Cable
