i am suffering an UNHOLY BITCH of a ringing in my ears and researching as much as i can about self-massage techniques. i know about the retraining techniques but i think a lot of this has to do with my tmj. it is really scary to have a noise that won't turn off in my ears that's loud enough to be oppressive in the daytime with outside noises going and music on. it makes me frightened of silence, because then it is perceived as a deafening rush. off to stretch neck muscles. i have a doctor's appointment, though i don't expect much from it. this has happened in the past but nowhere near so loud; i hope it eventually dies down as it did before. it's distracting and makes me frightened of my own head.
