I've had tinnitus that acts like that for 20+ years. Maybe you're really lucky and it is your WiFi, but that all sounds like a coincidence rather than a cause. It probably just made you notice it. Were you in a band or anything? Listen to loud music on headphones when you were younger?

I'm really sorry to tell you this, but you've got two choices:

- accept it, you can't fix it

- try and fix it, fail, accept it, you can't fix it

There is no cure for tinnitus. The quicker you get to accepting it, the better your life will be.

Therapy and CBT can help.

Carry on trying to fix it for a few months by.all means, but I'd advise you give yourself a deadline to switch from 'fix it' mode to 'learn to live with it' mode.

By complete coincidence, yesterday my tinnitus went so quiet I thought it had gone. I have a new type of glasses that don't hook behind your ears. "Oh my god, was it my glasses all along?", I thought immediately.

My tinnitus is loud today.

Even after 20 years there's part of me looking for a fix. But it's about how you deal with it, this morning I had a little chuckle at myself, put all thoughts about my tinnitus aside, picked up a book to read and moved on with my life.

I absolutely love going to the beach. White noise masks the tinnitus so well I can't even hear it when I self-test. It's the only time I truly get a break from the sizzling and squealing.

True, it isn't likely going to go away. My hearing aids help immensely, but mostly with tolerance, and not occurrence. It is pretty much background noise to me nowadays, although some things can really set it off. It doesn't drive me batty anymore, at least!
