I don't have to relearn every day. And this is probably because my T is usually the quietest upon waking. I'm sure if it were louder upon waking, like it is for some people, then I probably would have to rehabituate every day. Or it simply would've taken me longer.

Exactly my experience. My dad also has had it for over 30 years from the military. Only I did not know he had it until I got mine and started complaining about it. But I figure if I knew so many who had it and they could habituate, then so could I. It brought me comfort to know I was not alone...

For some people, yes. Some people are able to habituate while others can't. I can only speculate that the reasons for this are varied... Some people genuinely have it worse than others. Some people have other factors apart from tinnitus that make hsbituating difficult or even impossible, etc...

True, but this doesn't exactly follow. When I got T and opened up about it, I found out that many people I know have it including my own dad. They either just never complained about it to me, or perhaps I was off in my own little world and wasn't paying attention. But once I developed T, I saw...

If you really do have liquid behind your ear drum, I'd look into getting that treated. I know fluid in my middle ears have been able to make my tinnitus get very loud. But once it went away, my tinnitus went back to baseline. As long as you have a real, physical and treatable problem, I...

Have you tried to see if hearing aids would help?

So basically there is no reason to look forward to it for most people on here.

Well at least your doc had some intelligible things to say and possibly an idea. When I went to my first doc, I pretty much knew I was screwed when he had to look up what tinnitus was on Mayo clinic right there in front of me.

What's next for you, AM-101?

What drug?

He asked what we think, not when. Obviously we can have an estimated time without making a definitive claim, such would be with the length of string.

lol that seems kinda weird to say since you took it regularly.

Just curious, but what sport did you okay? Was it your living?

Well what I don't get is why does this bother you so much? So he has to put a pill bottle under a pillow to put the cap on... so what? I can see how that'd be a hassle for him, but I'm puzzled why this bothers you, as it's not like it's an inconvenience for you. But let me say this: if this...

If it remains a 3 without drugs, then that's very amazing. I hope it was the drugs and not because this would've happened no matter what.
