Learn how anxiety, stress, and mental fatigue may affect your Hearing Health and what you can do about it.

If you've ever experienced a sudden ringing in your ears during a stressful moment, you're not alone. Your mind and ears are more connected than you think. How Stress Affects Your Hearing Under stress, your body reacts as if it's facing danger. This raises your blood pressure, tightens muscles, and increases cortisol levels — all of which can affect the delicate structures in your inner ear. Some stress-related hearing issues include: • Tinnitus (ringing or buzzing in the ear) • Sudden temporaryHearing Loss • Sensitivity to noise • Difficulty focusing on conversations Can Anxiety Make Hearing Feel Worse? Yes. Anxiety can cause both physical and psychological changes that interfere with hearing clarity. Common experiences include: • Feeling like your ears are “blocked” • Trouble processing speech in noisy environments • Overreaction to loud sounds
