Tinnitus: “Just Get Used to It?!”
Please note: the following information does not constitute professional medical advice, and is provided for general informational purposes only. Please speak to your doctor if you have tinnitus.
Ever been frustrated when others tell you to “just get used” to your tinnitus?
Originally, Tinnitus Retraining Therapy was developed as a method to cause unhabituated individuals to become habituated to their tinnitus. There’s evidence that this works, but it won’t lower the volume of your tinnitus.
Habituation is a process whereby an individual’s tinnitus tone no longer bothers them. Habituation has been shown to lower the distress caused by tinnitus, but unfortunately, many people do not experience habituation.
