Drachen

I find it regretful that the only times I have been able to feel "normal" have been while asleep and in the shower. Is this living life?

Going to start going back on supplements again since I'm feeling terribly off them as well. I want to hope I get at least some benefit...

This could be my most piercing day yet. I can't even begin to isolate a cause. How do I escape this? I am really in quite a rut right now.

Seeing an ENT tomorrow. Feels like a lot has built up to this, but I have little to no expectations of what's to come.

This is all so exhausting.

My ears continue to feel intermittently itchy and uncomfortable after I take a shower. My eardrums are secure, so what's the deal?

Limited quality sleep and feeling in poor health certainly does not make handling this any easier. Massive yikes.

Thinking about dropping ginkgo biloba. No effect after a month, and some claim it could make things worse. Any thoughts?

Starting astaxanthin as well today. Vitamin D3 also confirmed to be low by lab results. Not sure if I want to keep taking it...

Going to start NAC today. I've read several good things about it, so I hope I don't have any negative side effects...

One month down tonight. I can't say I'm pleased with my progress so far, as I don't feel very adjusted. I'm quite concerned for the future.

Today has been incredibly trying. It felt almost like one of the first days. It's frightening to experience this sort of whiplash.

A bit shaken this morning as I quite possibly had my worst evening last night since onset. Very concerning, and I have no idea of the cause.

Starting on ramelteon tonight in an effort to improve my sleep. Already averaging about six hours per night, but I'd like to see eight!

One day at a time, folks. Slowly but surely!

Tried to go most of today without any ambient masking or enrichment. Can't say it's been a great experience.

Tonight is going to mark three weeks from onset. Still struggling, still searching for answers...

Seeing the audiologist in just a few hours. What will come of it, I wonder? :P

Seems like yet another depressing day. I really want to fix my sleep.

Left ear noise is quite loud tonight. Mood starting to crash. :(

Not sure how to feel today. A very awkward mood that's neither positive nor negative nor neutral? I'm all over the place.

Seems like another bad night. My left ear is being particularly naughty. Trying to distract, trying to distract...

Just another early morning/afternoon of feeling down in the dumps. Not how I wanted to start my 2021! :(

Sleep was very intermittent and scattered last night. Come on, man... when is this going to end?!

This new fluttering (?) sound in my left ear is causing me quite a concern. Not sure if this bout of change is good or bad.

This may have been my worst night since everything began. Really need help if it can be offered here. I'm in a bad spot.

My sleep seems to be improving with each passing night. Progress!

Primary care visit was less than pleasant. Lots of time waiting in a quiet room. My ears were clean, and I got some meds to try for sleep.

It might be a good time to actually leave my room at some point...

Feeling pretty low tonight. I am not handling the anxiety well. Need to figure out how to calm down...
