Abstract
About 20 percent of individuals with tinnitus experience substantial distress because of their condition. Some of these individuals go to a psychologist. Some try self-help books. There is evidence that cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy can help individuals cope with tinnitus and evidence that self-help guides, together with a therapist’s support, are beneficial. However, there is no published evidence that self-help books on their own can help reduce distress.
