Abstract
Many tinnitus sufferers are told they need to learn to live with it. In some areas there may be no local services that provide competent counseling and sound therapy. In other cases, a sufferer might simply choose to help himself or herself. We provide a detailed example of a program to facilitate a self-help approach to tinnitus. This includes: 1) a description of tinnitus; 2) comments about what causes tinnitus; 3) a description of treatments available; 4) a discussion about things tinnitus sufferers can do to help themselves; 5) advice on seeking professional help; 6) strategies for assessing claims of new treatments; and 7) a positive discussion of hopeful future directions and approaches.
