    Any TTTS/Hyperacusis Success Stories?

    Hi there Adam, I watched your videos, very inspiring and gives some hope, I'm just starting TRT at the London Tinnitus and Hyperacusis Center. I pray that it helps me. I didn't hear you mention anything in your videos about TTTS? How was yours? I have a vibrating/bass noise that physically...

    Aftermath of a Festival

    I have been to an outdoor festival, only went to 3 nights out of 4.. and mostly hung around the food area, away from the stages... but last night (final night) everybody crowded to watch Prodigy (who were so loud) and I couldn't really move! I thought I'd just brave it out, obviously wearing...

    Changes...

    Hey, I'm new to this place... but not new to tinnitus! I first got it from a loud gig 7 years ago! So you'd think I'd be habituated by now!
