        @Karolina I COULD try earmuffs but I doubt they’ll do much

        You can use the silicone ones. The ones that don't go into the ear canal.

      that normally has a veryyyy loud setting, if I have to use ear plugs then I will, but I guess I’m just nervous because I’ve never used (2/3)

      Does anyone know a way I can protect my ears without ear plugs? I don’t know why I fear them but I do— and I need to attend an event (1/3)

      Maybe if I treated tinnitus as a part of me, as a friend, as a carved, wonderful flaw in my body, I’ll be able to get a long with it well.

        Look up "kintsugi", the art of repairing broken pottery using gold, thus fixing them and making them more beautiful and whole in spite of their flaws. Even if the tinnitus never leaves, you can be whole, you can still be you <3

      Lately I’ve been paying way too much attention to my T, enough to make my heart drop for a hot second and the anxiety to rise for a few mins

      I think it’d be much more rewarding if my T switched to like.. the noise you hear in a seashell or something, but that’s impossible

      I feel like it may be because I’m up at like 4 am and super tired that’s why it’s gotten that bad, it’s never sounded that annoying before

      My tinnitus has been laying low For a while now, I hope it continues to do so. I barely notice it at night too as I’m always distracted

      I don’t know what spiked my T but it came out of the blue and ever since I can’t seem to push any habituation up front. It’s so loud.

        @4Grace man :( I would’ve understood if I used earphones or been somewhere loud but I haven’t and that’s why I’m confused as to why it’s spiking all of a sudden

        That’s a great sign. I know a lot of people that have T and have been going out for years, they get a temporary spike then after a while it always comes back down. Not saying you should not be careful, happy it came back down for you.

        Did you wear earplugs? Always carry them you ans have them on hand for situations like that.

      On a positive note, I’m so much more positive than I was when I first got t. I thought my life would be torn away, but t would never!!

      I’m also really sleepy and really tired .. so that makes it much more louder.

      It’s been getting louder these days. One thing I found helpful is raining & fire crackling ASMR, but how do I build that in my head..

    ☕️ hello!! the names frills or lantern. Despite my name, I’ve never tried coffee before!
    I’m a big animal lover & a bookworm. Favourite animals are red pandas & deers! I love the Redwall series by Brian jacques. My favourite quotes are;

    “You will find joy, frustration and sorrow in your quest. Never forget that friendship and loyalty are more precious than riches...Happiness can be brief, but it knows no time in the land of dreams.” - Pearls Of Lutra

    “Don't be ashamed to weep; 'tis right to grieve. Tears are only water, and flowers, trees, and fruit cannot grow without water. But there must be sunlight also. A wounded heart will heal in time, and when it does, the memory and love of our lost ones is sealed inside to comfort us.” - Taggerung

    i also play both rhythm & otome games! Some of my favourite otomes are obey me & ikemen prince. Some of my other favourites which I don’t play but watch are; cafe enchante, collar x malice & piofiore.
    I play arcaea, phigros, cytus II, enstars, arb (hypmic), bsts (blackstar) c more !! Most of these are set on high speeds ^_^
