Gita Bhattacharya Tossing turning and putting her hands over her earsshe was trying to convince herself that the sound she was hearing was notthere This had been going on for several nights now Unable to sleep shesearched the internet and started doing a little research She discovered thatshe had tinnitus and that there was currently no cure
One of the first websites she found was ATAorg One of the things thataffected me most Gita told us later was a video created for ATA about thedangers of loud music It scared me to learn that listening to music at loudlevels can be a main cause of tinnitus Gita was scared but determined not
to let her tinnitus stop her from doing the things she enjoyed I playedpercussion in the marching band jazz band and drumline for years It really hurt me to reathe music I loved could be the reason for my personal agony
As Gita learned more about her condition and began to adjust to life with tinnitus she turnATA for help I tried to figure things out on my own she told ATA staff I was scaredconfused and frustrated I felt alone No one could hear what I was hearing and the soundwere getting louder Working on the problem was something that helped me through it all ATA was there for me when I needed them
