#2I have tinnitus in both ears. Most of the time I’m not aware of it but at times it’s very annoying. I’m very careful to not let my thoughts about it become dark because I can see a very clear path toward depression about it.
I do hope there is a cure on the horizon.

Likewise. Although I've had it since I was very young and grew accustomed to it. I wasn't even aware that hearing "nothing" was a thing until I mentioned the constant ringing to my parents one day.
If it does begin to annoy me I listen to something calming like ocean waves or raindrops falling (on relatively low volume). It does wonders, especially if I notice it while trying to sleep.

#5Does anybody know why this trial does not show up when you search for "Tinnitus" on PubMed?

(genuine question) How is there a clear path from tinnitus to depression?

I have tinnitus and I can see it too.
Tinnitus is a constant ringing in one or both ears. Constant, as in it is always there. There is no true silence anymore, because the ringing is always there.
There is also no cure, and really no certified treatment. All we can do is distract ourselves with other sounds and try not to focus on it, but it can still be very mentally draining. Without the right mindset, it’s an extremely hopeless and depressing situation.

From what I understand that was one of the more salient symptoms, but there were a few more that caused him to take his life.
