Tinnitus Sad Story

Careful. This is just his wife's interpretation of events. As the police said, there was no note or any clue at all as to why he actually did this.

To be honest, "promoting awareness of tinnitus" is the worst thing you can do. That's the very thing which what causes it to be a problem - thinking about it and analysing it. And I speak as someone who's had it for as long as I can remember. Combine it with the fact my deafness has now reached the stage that the last verbal conversation I will ever have with anyone was a couple of years ago, and the last thing I'd want is to have people insisting I'm "aware" of my condition and all those crazy sounds in my head that will never go away.

Just get on with other things instead, and you'll find life ain't that bad.
