Tinnitus

These are descriptions of how individuals experienced various symptoms during withdrawal. While everyone's withdrawal is unique and symptoms will be different for everyone, it may be useful to know what others went through.

All withdrawal symptoms can be caused by things in addition to withdrawal. If a symptom is persistent or you are worried by it, it is always a good idea to get it checked out by your doctor to ensure nothing else is going on.

What I've Felt:

"You hear or feel a tinny, high-pitched buzzing or ringing in one or both ears."

"For some people, this is a very pronounced, marked symptom. It hasn't bothered me that much. After the first couple of months I began to only have random, infrequent bouts of tinnitus. Lasting from five to 20 seconds, the noises seemed most like the ringing tones you hear during a hearing-assessment test" - Matt

What I've Felt:

“My tinnitus has been ever present. I did have some on one side before all this started but the more I have tapered the louder it has become and it has graduated to both sides. It is more prevalent after a cut.” - Anthea
