[Mo...] Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Wondering has anyone who has had tinnitus from benzo, does it go away? Or how long have you had it? Does it get quieter over time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Br...] Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I had tinnitus when I was in withdrawal. It gradually faded away. So yes, in my case it got quieter over time. For a while it seemed to be gone but when I was tired or stressed it would reappear temporarily. I'm almost 4 yrs. post jump and I haven't experienced it in months (knock on wood). I've read that tinnitus can be one of the last withdrawal symptoms to resolve. This was true for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[be...] Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 @[Mo...] yes my Tinnitus did get much better, at times when I am really tired or a bit stressed, I may have a bit. I had it before I tapered, I have Bil Meniere's which means both ears, so I was used to it, although it did seem a bit more while tapering. Thankfully I only have it on the occasions I stated above. For most it does get better with Time...the catch all for most healing post wd and while tapering. Stay Strong. 💖Peace and Healing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[or...] Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 @[Mo...] I got tinnitus during my taper and while it's never completely gone away, it has lessened a lot. I still have it but mostly it doesn't bother me -- it's quieter, I guess. When I think about it, like now, I hear it, but when I'm doing other things like driving, or listening to music, or watching movies, or reading -- something that occupies my mind -- it doesn't bother me. Yeah, I wish I didn't have it, but oh well, part of the benzo gift that keeps on giving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
