Work wasn't too bad, thankfully. Actually the new kitten comes tomorrow morning. She's a rescue so they have to come to my house to make sure everything is clean and safe for a cat. ❤️ I haven't had a pet in over 10 years and hoping it's an easy transition.
@RunningMan I still have my moments but I'm pushing forward or forcing myself to. I will pray for you to get back to your old baseline. I'm so sorry you're dealing with this.
@BrOKeN_1 Thankyou, I appreciate that. Being upset that I (we) have T won't change the fact that it happened. I try to do research on undoing it and finding the cause, treating symptoms and share my progress with you guys. Life is short and there's no time to waste obsessing about something that...
You have to understand how tinnitus and hyperacusis works in order to understand why the brain does what it does. In short, your brain needs to be exposed daily to everyday noises in order to reassure itself that sound is safe and not hurtful.
@Tryn2BHopeful I understand. I've said that many times too. Soooo many people live with this and carry on and we will too. Does it suck, absolutely but we can only go forward from here.
It's possible. It's so early on with you (us) still. Mines loud but there are times I forget about it and my mind makes the noise stop. Habituation is gonna take awhile to happen. You're doing great, keep going.
Baby steps is key. Keep trying to watch TV with it, relax with it. Try for 15 mins one day, then 30, etc. you'll get there, keep going.
No one said this was easy but you got this.
