Living with Tinnitus can be an overwhelming challenge, with the constant noise in one’s head taking a toll on a person’s well-being. Discover how support groups, like the St Helens Tinnitus Support Group, can play a crucial role in alleviating the burden and offering hope to those who share this struggle. Here’s what a member of the group had to say about their experience.
“In 2022 I started to have a loud buzzing in my ear, my doctor said that I had severe Tinnitus, this made me feel very low with the constant noise in my head, so I decided to look online to see if there was any support available.
I found the Tinnitus Support Group in St Helens and gave them a call. The lady spoke to me for 45mins, and this alone made me feel better as I knew I was not alone. She told me about the group that runs every month.
I went to the next meeting and found it a huge help, The people that I spoke to were going through the same thing as I was.
I am so happy that I joined the group just sharing my experience ang getting help and support from people that you don’t really know is a wonderful experience.
One year on, and I can now put the noise to the back of my head and can say its reduced to where I barley notice it.
Thank you to the St Helens Tinnitus support group for giving me my quality of life back”.
