Tinnitus Support Derbyshire will help you to understand your emotional reactions to tinnitus (which may be stress and anxiety) and will help you to retrain your responses to it, and
give you advice on ways to manage your tinnitus.
As well as providing advice and information about tinnitus, we are here to listen.
Talking to someone about any anxieties you may have about tinnitus and any distress it may cause,
can be therapeutic in itself.
Tinnitus is the conscious awareness of a sound that is not due to an external source and affects about 1 in 8 of the population. Tinnitus is rarely a sign of a serious underlying condition. For some people it may come and go and only be a minor irritation. However, it can sometimes be continuous and have a significant impact on everyday life. Severe cases can be very distressing, affect concentration and cause problems such as difficulty sleeping (insomnia) and depression.
