Migraines can be different for different people, same as tinnitus. If you don't think tinnitus can be debilitating, just stop mocking people who are suffering. The thread is closed.

For some, tinnitus + hyperacusis can be severely debilitating. Do you also go to other health forums to tell those people that their conditions aren't that bad?

Scroll down to see the post from the Visual Snow Initiative! :)

It's a campaign by the BTA!

"Besides, even if it stays, your perception of it will change for the better over time, as your brain gets more used to it." - Except if your tinnitus gets worse :)))

"Tinnitus is not that bad compared to many other physical conditions. I know. My tinnitus super loud, it's not fun, but it's not like cancer." Thanks, I'm cured. Maybe having severe hyperacusis that leaves you bed-ridden or developing 5-7 new tones would change your mind :)))

"CBT, TRT, mindfulness etc. will help us manage or reduce T for some folks" Only for some? Didn't you proudly proclaim that CBT & TRT reduce tinnitus for everyone and that everyone can learn not to perceive their tinnitus anymore?

These "horror stories" are real. Yes, they can be scary, but you probably won't "end up like these people".

Some people still struggle after years because these conditions can be debilitating, their suffering is not optional.

I wouldn't advice new sufferers to read those stories but I think people should be allowed to share and talk about how brutal t/h can be. How else are they supposed to make other people understand and take them seriously?

"I go to parties and don't wear earplugs and my tinnitus doesn't get worse!" - maybe you're just lucky, my friend.

„phase I will be completed after 2 years, phase II will go on for another 2-3 years and then we hope that the molecule will be available for everyone“ yes, hi, hello there, I’m all for it, start phase I nowwwww

Really hoping that those upcoming five years are going to be different (and actually make a difference) compared to those 5-year phases we had before.

*5 years by now :))
