CureTinnitus.org Tinnitus Tip: Onset Incident or Cause?
Exposure to loud noise
Anaesthetics, surgery, operations
Side effects of some medicines
[wcm_restrict]Overwhelming emotional situations
Too much excitement
Great fear
Anger and frustration
Overtiredness
Too much change
Too much responsibility
Stress
A blow to the head
A bad cold/head based bug/virus
Overstimulation
Intense anger
Long term worry e.g. court case, divorce, money problems
Working overseas
Long-haul flights, frequent jet-lag
Exhaustion
Syringing your ear
Focussing on the ear
Silence
Jaw problems & major dentistry
Lack of being looked after or supported
Early mothering difficulties
Being too compliant and not being allowed to say NO
If these things are onset incidents, which both JCH and Dr. Greuel (plus find more research) corroborates, then they are “onset incidents” and NOT “causes.”
Your unsupportive spouse did not CAUSE the tinnitus, and neither did the explosion, the loud music, the stress, the intense anger, or whatever it was.
Your immune system is not in a “normal” state, where it can regulate and release the tinnitus, as it most likely did at some point in your life.

Well I got the e mail for this topic even though it says that it’s only available to members… and I AM thinking about the “join us” option, but I want to comment anyway.
I see so much that’s connected. My eyesight (at one time I ordered a program to help my eyesight) my TMJ problems, high blood pressure, hypo/hyperglycemia issues, arthritis. From my perspective, they are all symptoms of the same thing. Not taking care of myself. I identify with so many of the triggers, it’s amazing I can hear at all. No wonder tinnitus screams at me:
Overwhelming emotional situations; Great fear; Anger and frustration;
Overtiredness; Too much change; Too much responsibility; Stress; Long term worry e.g. court case, divorce, money problems; Exhaustion; Jaw problems & major dentistry; Lack of being looked after or supported;
Being too compliant and not being allowed to say NO
So yes I fit the profile. I also have a strong aversion to being touched, making the body work difficult. I have a long time friend that does acupuncture, however, and I have been working with her, it has been easier to let her touch me. So I feel like I am making progress. I also have an appointment with a counselor next week. I’ve been doing body awareness work before bed and sleeping much better, especially after moving into another bedroom. My ear is still screaming; not quite so loudly. Feeling more relaxed although a long way to go.
Thank you for your open and honest comment. We are in this together, and my heart goes out to you. It’s clear that you can already see the light at the end of the tunnel. You know the work that needs to be done…as do I…we are here to support each other with the leadership of experts. We are here to follow in the footsteps of those who have succeeded at getting to where we want to go, and who know very well “where we are” right now, because they’ve been through it themselves.
what came 1st? the chicken or the egg? either way, the road back is based on a life long program of self care. and that’s the good news.
Very explanatory – continue to spread the word.
I would love to join you. I cannot afford your monthly fee at this time. There is nothing left that I can cut except groceries and I need that $80.00 each month for food. I hope I will keep recieving your emails, they do help!! Thank you.
