Just put your headset on and bang out some music grin No, to be honest, tinnitus isn't a nice thing to suffer from. Some people suffer from it continually, where as others just get it now and again. I would hate to suffer from that. I've never heard of people that suffer from tinnitus say that they hear "voices or music" just more of a "hissing/ringing" sound in their ears dunno

Some are not easily divulged, as society has stigmatised it...

Ask any professional musician or woodworker who is around machinery and not wearing hearing protection... hissing/ringing sounds that don't go away.

The only 'voices' is from you talking to yourself saying "Why didn't I wear ear protection sooner?"

For me, it usually happens when I'm stressed or when I go up to a high place.

I suffer from tinnitus blues a buzzing all the time.

If i keep busy it is still there but does not disturb me, its when i am not doing anything it can be very disturbing, sometimes it feels as if it competes with sound around me and tries to get higher (competing) grin i have to keep smiling or it will beat me and i can,t have that.

German composer and conductor Robert Schumann had it so bad that he unsuccessfully committed suicide by jumping off a bridge into the Rhine River. He was put in an asylum after that until he later died. sad flower

Hearing voices, or other meaningful sounds like music, with no external source is a common human experience. For the most part it is not associated with mental illness. but with sleep, fever, grief, etc.



Tinnitus is hearing non-meaningful noise with no external source, such as ringing, buzzing, crunching, etc.

I have a whole cacophony of tinnitus noises, some loud enough to hear over factory floor legal noise limits. It doesn't bother me as long as it's constant, but I can see my noises (synesthesia) which probably helps.

I am bothered by a intermittant tinnutus noises, or a sudden increase in volume due to wearing my hearing aid, or being in a noisy setting.

I like it when I hear meaningful noises, but that's always been sounds from my memory like a 1960's phone waking me up, or loved ones calling my name.

I don't see the stigma in tinnitus, although I agree, most people probably don't like to admit to hearing meaningful noises with no external source because of it's over-association with mental illness.

The stigma has in part been propagated by the idea of violent offenders fueled by auditory hallucinations. It's rare for this to happen, so the fear created by fictional and news entertainment is disproportionate.
