In this episode, I sit down with Stephanie, a long-standing member of MyTinnitus.Club and the mentor behind our community’s buddy program. Stephanie shares her deeply personal journey of tinnitus habituation – not once, but twice.

After initially habituating, Stephanie faced a relapse that brought her back into the thick of tinnitus distress. But through Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and the support of our community, she found her way back to peace and resilience.

In this conversation, we explore:

• The difference between habituating once… and losing it

• How Stephanie rebuilt her mindset through ACT and community support

• The tools that helped her most (including music and mindfulness)

• Why success isn’t an endpoint, but a process of inner alignment

• What advice she has for anyone afraid they’ll never find relief

Whether you’re new to tinnitus or worried you’ve lost progress, Stephanie’s story is a powerful reminder that habituation is possible—again and again.

🎧 Tune in now for an honest, hopeful, and healing conversation.

Hear you in the next one!

Hey Tinnitus Friends & Family,

When people hear “You have to accept your tinnitus”, it often sounds like giving up. But what if acceptance is actually your most powerful tool for breaking the tinnitus–anxiety loop and finding lasting relief?

In this episode, Tinnitus Coach Frieder unpacks what real acceptance means and why it’s not about resignation. You’ll discover how Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps you retrain your brain, regulate your emotions, and reclaim your life — even if your tinnitus is severe.

What you’ll learn:

• Why acceptance is not the same as giving up

• How fighting tinnitus keeps your nervous system stuck in panic

• The neuroscience behind habituation and emotional flexibility

• Why thoughts and feelings—not the sound—keep the cycle alive

• A 3-step ACT-based shift to help your brain stop reacting

• How to start experiencing relief right now

“You don’t need to feel good about the sound. You just need to stop fighting it. That’s the path to freedom.”

Is there finally a tinnitus cure in 2025? A real solution that stops the ringing for good?

Let’s take a deep dive into the current state of tinnitus treatment research — and what actually works to reduce suffering and help you habituate.

In this episode, Tinnitus Coach Frieder (deaf in one ear, severe high-pitched tinnitus in the other for 16+ years) explores the most up-to-date scientific developments in tinnitus research as of July 2025 — including:

✅ Objective biomarkers for measuring tinnitus distress

✅ The latest on vagus nerve stimulation, brain-based therapies, and gene repair

✅ Why regrowing hearing cells might help — but doesn’t always fix the loop

✅ The overlooked power of Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) to rewire your brain’s response to tinnitus

💡 ACT-based behavioral therapy continues to show the strongest evidence for reducing tinnitus distress — and it’s the cornerstone of Frieder’s 12-week coaching program.

⸻

🧠 Tinnitus doesn’t have to be cured for your life to begin again.

Through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), you can retrain your brain and nervous system to stop overreacting to the sound.

This is true tinnitus habituation — and it’s how Frieder has helped over 500 people move from bothersome to non-bothersome tinnitus.

Hope you enjoy and hear you in the next one!
