Your story aligns so closely with my own experience with both tinnitus and visual snow. I'm going through a bad spell at the moment, so hearing someone share such a similar experience is something I can take solace in. Thank you so much for sharing!
@@T-Rexx329 Fortunately I never had it that bad. It was incredibly distressing at first for around a week, but once I got over it it's never been something that's bothered me much. A lot of days go by where I never even notice it, almost like it's gone away. I personally found going for walks listening to ASMR (almost constantly) to be very helpful for me! :)
@@Goober13md so u dont have Tinnitus and VS anymore or is it that it doesnt bother you asmuch.? i got both the things after a misdiagnosis! it was first eye floaters then 20 days later tinnitus! both seem manageable after the air around the misdiagnosis cleared and T doesnt bother me at all after the first week as its volume has been coming down consistently ! eye floater i have 1 black blob and rest transparent dots only visible under sunglight or SUPER BRIGHT LIGHTS! like the one in malls or stores! i was hust afraid i might get VSS! so did these things clear up for you and in how much time did these things go, did you do something in particular to make it go away.?
You're so brave for making this video I have been experiencing the exact same things ever since I started having anxiety syndrome and vertigo attacks. I have been battling daily anxiety attacks which totally wreck my vision with intense snow to the point the white walls in my house give me a migraine. Your tips have helped me out so much thank you!!!!
Hi Alice, my "floaters " appeared long time before my tinnitus. I wish I'd known then, what I know now. Unfortunately, I didn't recognise I was anxious at the time and I started experiencing more symptoms. Luckily, I found you, Julian and Joye and you all have helped me so much along my healing journey. The past week has been hard, and coming closer to Christmas is a stressful time for me at work and with family responsibilities. My sleeping has worsened, my anxiety is high and I'm also experiencing dizziness. However, knowing that these are all symptoms of anxiety helps me regulate and put things into perspective. Thank you again for a great video! You are a true inspiration and a credit to our community. I wish you and your family a wonderful and peaceful Christmas!
Thank you so much for your kind feedback. I appreciate it so much and you are too kind! I am just glad that my videos have been even the slightest bit helpful for you in your journey. I can relate to all of the symptoms that you have described and I know how exhausting it can feel. I have probably experienced about 50 different symptoms throughout my intense anxiety periods. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! :)
@T-Rexx329 Hi! I still have floaters and T. However, tinnitus has gone so much quieter! So much so, that I can rarely notice it in the daytime. I only hear it at night, but the sound is not bothersome anymore. A year ago, I'd never thought I'd be in this place of acceptance and peace. Hang in there, you can get better, don't doubt it for a second. I live a normal, fulfilling life. Tinnitus taught me how to set my boundaries and a better perspective and way of life. As Alice says, "Stay hopeful!"
I have probably generalized anxiety since childhood, and also I have many VSS syndrome symptoms: static, tinnitus, floaters, also blue field sprites, when I focus a bit more, and most worrying of all, night blindness - I have recently been to a forest late into the evening, and as I was walking the path, it was quite dark, and due to my static I could not see the path clearly, and this was making me quite dizzy 😅 On the other hand, even with that static, my vision seems quite strong, and I can see either small details like small letters (but not too small due to static), or something quite far off. Even my eye doctor told me that for a 38 year-old my vision is surprisingly well, and that she very rarely sees such visual coordination 🙂 I guess working with eyes on a computer for years and years made them stronger 🤣 Two things I KNOW I need to take care of, are: 1. my anxiety, and 2. my sleep.
I've had blurred vision floaters light sensitivity twitching eyes eye pressure and tinnitus for 3 years. It's so hard because nothing gets rid of it but I know what I need to do to heal. I'm glad your feeling better
@@alicemoyle Thankyou, I'm sure I will heal one day soon. I try not to think about the face that it's been 3 years but more that I've had time to grow and learn how to heal
@@Raj-m4x has nothing to do with surgery, the brain filters all your floaters did you even watch her video? We need to get back into our bodies as safe selves again and all of this will resolve. Everyone has floaters and brain filters them. Unless you get checked by a doctor and they say you have some physical eye issue that requires surgery then you need to stop worrying
I'm an Italian guy and I apologize for my English. I always go on too long when I talk about my Visual Snow, but this time I'll limit myself to saying that I have all the same problems as you derived from Visual Snow and it's really difficult to get out of this situation. After about 2 years, together with my psychologist, we managed to understand my problem, because here in Italy no one knows he was able to tell me what problem I had. Basically I have other problems, such as Acne (in an advanced state) since I was 11... it's difficult to live a normal life, and at 21 I really feel like a failure. I think the translation wasn't the best, but I still wanted to participate by having my say! I will follow other videos that may be useful to me. I also forgot to mention that it is very difficult for me to study, listen for too long without getting distracted, etc.
Thank you for sharing! It sounds like you have been through really difficult times and I am sorry to hear about your struggles. I hope my videos help in some way and i wish you all the best!
Its very interesting how many symptoms overlap with VSS. Tinnitus, light senetivity, easy motion sickness, anxiety (even if we are aware of it or not), OCD tendencies, over thinkers, critical thinkers, childhood traumas, allergies (gluten, lactose, animal hair, dust, mold, ect), curious were it all connects. Gut health? Hyper sensetive nervous system? An endocrine issue? Vitamin or mineral deficiency? So many possibilities. For myself VSS has been a thing for 15+ years. At this point my brain does a pretty good job zoning it out much like tinnitus, unless I think about it. Only ever had a hand full of floaters before though. And never after images thankfully.
Yes, it is very interesting. I think that there is usually a lot of overlap with these things. It certainly seems like to me that our bodies are trying to tell us something and will show many different symptoms to get our attention. I hope you are doing well!
@@alicemoyle Look into "Candida over growth" and or "chronic inflammatory response syndrome". I Found out I have these from past mold exposure giving me mold mycotoxins. I have since been treating it with an extremely strict "candida diet" along with the medication Fluconazole which along with the many other symptoms it has also greatly reduced my VSS. I am not saying this is what you have but I would look into it.
the Stay Hopeful light you had customed is a beautiful reminder to keep in a optimistic state & mindset. Thanks for sharing another part of your journey, I’m glad that you made it through the roughest parts of tinnitus and this vision sensory issue, I couldn’t imagine having both these issues at the same time. Best wishes to you Alice ❤
I signed up for TRT from Treble Health at the end of November and I received my tinnitus bundle a little over a week ago. I’m on sound therapy for a week as of now, I have ear maskers that I wear daily from when I wake until I go to sleep, that’s when I remove them and put them on the charger. My Dad loaned me a book to read, that he says should help me in this journey. So, I’ll begin reading that soon. Hope you had a nice Holiday Season.
I have tinnitus and anxiety, and all of these visuak symptoms. I can't believe it's not just me! For some reason my worst experience with after-images is when I pull weeds in the garden. I see ghostly radial plant shapes for the rest of the day.
I've had vss since birth, my Vss is only moderately static, I don't know how clear the night sky is. I prayed to God hoping to see a clear night sky like the one I saw on my monitor screen. stay strong, sis, you are not alone
This video literally scared me when it was recommended to me beacuse i was recently researching about this and have been struggling with anxitey for a VERY long time and experiencing visual snow for as long as i remember. Only now i have been noticing these problems within myself and i started researching about it so i really love that this video was recommend to me.
hey guys! i’ve had VSS, afterimages, Alice in Wonderland syndrome, tinnitus, eye strain, vertigo, and many more issues for 7 years. occasional dietary sensitivities, gut imbalances, acne on and off, though all symptoms fluctuate depending on stress levels. All of my problems started with a stressful event that had lasting consequences physically/emotionally/spiritually. Anxiety and gut health are directly linked to symptoms’ fluctuation. But I think it is all due to underlying inflammation and your body’s inability to repair once stress attacks because it lacks the vitamins and minerals it needs to repair that tissue. We are all deficient in vitamins, our food is not nourishing us with the way it is grown, and body can’t produce the minerals alone. After 7 years, i really think everything is due to stress and malnutrition. I’m about to start a 90 essential mineral program, hope to see results. Stay strong everyone!!
I thought I had a brain tumour because of this. I went to an eye doctor who said my eyes are fine, then I got an MRI because I needed reassurance and they found nothing. I guess it’s really all anxiety but I can’t control it
It is possible to overcome intense anxiety and the symptoms it creates. It just takes time, effort and practice going through self work and often mindfulness practices. Just remind yourself that it is possible to feel better and not notice so many visual symptoms! Mine lessened overtime and only pop up when i am quite tired or overwhelmed. Wishing you all the best :)
Thisbpopped ibto my feed and have similar symptoms as you. The afterimages get me a lot. Im not sure what it is. I think its anxiety, however i dont usually feel anxious or very stresed out these days. Oh well ill try to get over thibgs Ive watched a few of your other videos regarding tinnitus and fortunately i dont deal with that very often. However ibreallybappreciate the attitude you have in them. All the best.
@@lilyania6222 The Blessed Virgin Mary came down from Heaven and cured me of this horrible horrible disorder....The Blessed Virgin Mary promised never to leave or forsake anyone who fled to her....The Blessed Virgin Mary promised abundant graces to all who love her
Hey Alice, maybe i have most important message in your tinnitus/visual snow journey. I had both and recovered from both, fully. 100%. Many years i thought it was anxiety symptome, CFS, Fibromyalgia, whatever name we have today for feel like sh-t. What i tried? Well, you know what internet suggest :D You have to meditate, eat strict vegan/carnivore and stay mentaly in safety place, even tho you feel scared to death, exhausted, full of frustration and milions proof a day you are sick broken piece of wreck without future :D Epic state to feel safe :D I lost 5 years with those approaches, because root cause was trivial and obvious. My neck was dying. Yes. My neck + kyphosis back was the problem. Forward neck full of stiffness, cracking popping sounds, grinding. Stiff neck compress your brain stem and tons of other nerves (vagus nerve included). My symptoms were headache, visual snow, anxiety, brainfog, dizzy, tinnitus, random muscle scramps all over my body. I went to xray and my neck curve was lost. I had military straigh neck, almost reversed curve. So i bought denneroll and use it 2x20minutes a day. In my country chiropractors dont know denneroll so i just bought it and use it by myself. In two weeks i had first day after 5 years without headache and brainfog. Immediately anxiety was gone. Since then many relapses came but time when i was symptom free were longer and longer until you forget about it for good :) It was just broken neck. (and let be honest about yours neck and thorasic spine 0:24)
Your comment is really very helpful i have all the symptoms and i believe it can be from the neck Please can i get the brand name of the denneroll you got or a link pls ?
Thanks so so much for this video! 💛 I helped me a lot and was so so informative. I was so stressed about those eye floaters and other visual snow syndrome symptomes after panic attacks 😬. But now I see there is hope to heal from this problem 🙏🏻
Thank you for the great content! I’m 7 months from the onset of Tinnitus and VSS, preceded by years of untreated stress, OCD and anxiety, I’m still pretty much stuck on focusing on those symptoms, in your case how kind did it take after starting mindfulness and positive affirmation to see some improvement? I’m scared it’s too long now and that the symptoms will progress :(
Sorry for the delayed response! You are more than welcome for the content. I can understand why you might feel scared thinking that the symptoms might only progress rather than get better, however, remind yourself that it is possible to get better and overcome these challenges no matter where you are in your journey. It took me maybe around 8-10 months to really get a hold of myself and feel better slowly. It does take time and don't rush yourself. You can get better and so many people have, including myself! you've got this.
hello I have the same symptom since the appearance of my tinnitus, an anxiety invades me after a month I have other symptoms appear like this visual snow in the dark and flash when I close my eyes in the dark it's really annoying and it scares me, I would like to know what it is your symptoms disappeared and lasted how long please help me, I love your videos good luck, and sorry for my English
I had every single visual symptom you had when my mom and dad died and was diagnosed with vestibular migraines and put on tablets. Every time I shut my eyes in a dark room I would see camera flashes and gold swirling images so I had to sleep with the light on. I also suffer vertigo which has come back again the past few days. I am not sure if it's the cranial sacral therapy or the stress of the tinnitus. My doctor has reduced my tablet dose as a side effect is tinnitus but I am going back up on them I think as they were helping. I really needed to hear this today.
I can relate to what you are saying about the gold swirling images with your eyes closed! I would see all kinds of things including that. I have also experienced vertigo. Vertigo was the first symptom I experienced a few years ago tied to the vestibular system. I am glad that the video resonated with you and hopefully it was helpful in some way!
Did you also get halos/glare/starbust around lights?Light sensitivity? Was wondering if it got better or stopped annoying you? I talked to a psychiatrist and she said this was anxiety ( i thought I was going crazy). She did mention obsessions and compulsions so that is interesting
Yes! I have definitely experienced these symptoms. I can still experience them today if I am really tired or anxious. The eyes are closely linked to the brain and impacted by anxiety in many mysterious ways which can feel quite scary! It is possible to get better and experience it less.
hello i do see them too but i see them in the corner of my sight. its like a white and black circle that goes in semi circles but it last like 0.01 seconds. is it the same in your case? sorry for my bad grammar i dont speak english
I don't experience most of the symptoms like I used to when it was really bad! The more I focused on the symptoms back then, the worse they were. Now that I have learned not to focus on the symptoms, they are far less frequent and don't impact my life like they used to. It is possible to get better and not experience the symptoms!
Hello, thank you so much for your video! I had a tinnitus since 2020 and have overcome it with calming techniques. However, a couple of months ago I started to notice floaters during a stressful moment and then I got eye migraine and visual snow. I went to the eye doctor and neurologist. Nothing was found, but my neurologist really scared me. She told me that it can come from high blood pressure, which I don't have at the moment and that patients with eye migraines can have a slightly higher risk to get a stroke. Every time I am at the doctor my bp is really high and its in a normal range at home. Deep down I know that my (health) anxiety and my obsession is causing the symptoms, but the doctor scared me. Do you have any tips how to deal with health scares or if a doctor is not considering the mind/body connection? I really want to get better, but I am kind of in a limbo right now imagining the worst possible future outcome.
Thank you so much for sharing! I can totally relate to what you are saying when it comes to health scares and health anxiety. I have experienced so many scares that I can't even count them all! I am no expert, however, I would say that the mind and body connection is often overlooked and ignored. From everything that I have learned and experienced, the mind and body are completely connected and I have experienced over 100 symptoms from anxiety. Remind yourself that our anxiety can cause so many symptoms. It sounds like you have already sought medical clearance and therefore I would just be doing your best to work on mindfulness practices and being your own best friend when you feel scared. Remind yourself that our bodies do crazy things when we are anxious and many people like myself experience similar things. You've got this!
Hi alice í have recently founded the natural treatment for eye floaters,.. pineapple 🍍 contains bromaline which liquify the collagen which formed like clumps in vitrous gel ...its scientifically proved. Lets try pineapple treatment im also trying
I also have negative after image , visual snow ,eye floaters, light sensitivity for about 8 months .I'm struggling with continuously moving sensation feel like every thing is moving and internal tremors ,and tinnitus for about one year .I have a question how long you took to recover from all the eyes problems ?please ans me give me some tips to recover from eye problems?
Hey there! It took me several months to feel better and to overcome the visual symptoms. I have found this site really helpful! Give it a read and see how you go. www.anxietycentre.com/anxiety-disorders/symptoms/eye-vision-problems/ Wishing you all the best!
Do you still have VSS vision symptoms? I developed VSS after refractive eye surgery. I developed complications from the surgery (many of which are similar to VSS symptoms). I think maybe the anxiety I was experiencing from developing vision issues from the surgery led me to develop VSS which just made my vision worse and further fueled my anxiety. I’ve been dealing with vision issues for close to 6 years and it hasn’t gotten any easier. I just wish some of these symptoms would go away or get better.
I can still get symptoms that come and go when i am really tired or very anxious. I have noticed that the more i think about them and focus on them, the more they will appear. The more i accept them and don't worry about them, the more they disappear. I found this website really helpful when going through countless symptoms from anxiety and this page is helpful regarding eyes! It might help :) www.anxietycentre.com/anxiety-disorders/symptoms/eye-vision-problems/ I wish you all the best :)
hey, years ago I had a chemical burn in both my eyes and developed bad anxiety post-trauma. ever since then i’ve had VSS (and many other symptoms). it really is true that the more you ignore them, take supplements, spend time outdoors, have a healthy schedule, etc, the easier it becomes to manage/forget the problems. I hope that your conditions start to improve my friend. live and enjoy life as best you can and things might start to get better :)
@@alicemoyle pls help me out! i started to notice floaters at the time of a misdiagnosis around my eyes and then some 20 days later i got tinnitus a night before my tests were scheduled! after someone told me about VSS i statted looking out for symptoms and see bfep on white walls or a sunny sky now! do u think i can get visual snow.? my T is now some 50+ days old. i freak out periodically. pls help
