Hearing for your Mental Health: Tinnitus
Did you know that tinnitus can contribute to poor mental health and psychological disorders?
Tinnitus causes a permanent ringing or buzzing in the ears which can be debilitating in day to day life. It can affect job performance, cause insomnia and even create feelings of fear, anxiety and anger in individuals. Together, this can lead to depression, anxiety and even exasperate symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder.
Despite the lack of a cure for tinnitus, there are available therapies, including hearing aids with tinnitus masking features. Talk to us today to learn more about tinnitus and what you can do to treat it.
