brightlotusmoon:alianoralacanta: roseverdict:roseverdict: sushinfood: mieaouy: queerly-tony: This is the best description I’ve heard for this method, I always thought it was bullshit because I never heard a description that actually explained how to do this other than “tap your head 20 times”. I have anxiety-induced hissing, which sounds/feels different from sound-induced tinnitus (which I have also experience). Sound-based tinnitus actually sounds like you’re “hearing” something in your ears, whilst the hissing I have feels like it’s “inside my head”, if that makes sense. But this technique still helps!! Here’s a visual I found because I couldn’t understand the instructions well My ringing just went away for the first time in years. What is this blissful quiet. wait wait i gotta try this, i don’t think i’ve had Actual Silence since i was like 5 HOW THE FUCK Turning “blue Redditor”‘s comment into listed instructions for those who prefer it:1) Put your palms on your ears2) Check your fingers face backwards3) Wiggle your thumbs (you’ll use these next instruction)4) Gently put pressure on the neck, where the thumbs are (it will be soft)5) Return thumbs to original position6) Repeat 20 times (this should take 10-15 seconds). 7) Use any song with a 90 bpm - 120 bpm beat if you need it to keep rhythm (think “CPR playlist”, but with more choice). Silence is fine too.8) Enjoy having more freedom to hear clearly. WELP.That’s amazing. Both the tinnitus and the hissing went away.Also, I might have a new stim. -- source link
