How can I stop my tinnitus waking me up and stopping me from sleeping?


I know that all tinnitus sufferers want the answer to this question, so here it is:
It is probably not the tinnitus that is waking you up. Usually tinnitus is the first sound you hear when you wake up naturally during the night. As there is very little background sound, the tinnitus may appear louder because there is no other sound for the brain to listen to.
The RNID Shop sells bedside sound generators that can be used at night to provide background noise. There are other ways to introduce background sound, for example leaving a radio on which is tuned between stations or the noise of a fan.
