Tinnitus is a difficult medical condition, but not one that cannot be successfully managed. Many patients — including many with extremely burdensome cases — have found relief through the use of tinnitus management treatments. With perseverance and the guidance of medical professionals trained in tinnitus management, these patients have lowered the burden of their tinnitus, allowing them to live better, more fulfilling and happier lives.
ATA has compiled a series of true, first-person narratives from real tinnitus patients, discussing their efforts to find tinnitus relief. We hope these stories provide others with a sense of optimism and inspire fellow tinnitus patients to actively try one or more tinnitus management options.
Many of the stories included below were previously published in Tinnitus Today, ATA’s membership magazine.
If you would like to share the story about your own experience with tinnitus, please contact the Tinnitus Today Editor at editor@ata.org. While ATA is not able to publish all submitted content, we we include selected contributions in Tinnitus Today magazine and the ATA website.
