    Exactly my feeling! What cant they not say "oh hello Daniel" like a normal person. Why do the need to scream and shout around them... Must be a bad selfesteem thing.

    What is it with these people that have this weird urgue to shout or scream out of nowhere. We are on a meeting... Someone comes in and the person right next to me (about 50 cm away) litterally yell out "HEY DANIEL" VERY loudly. It was like getting a fistpunch of noice right into my right ear and...

    Tinnitus Possibly Linked to Jaw Clenching or Dental Issues

    Search for “somatic tinnitus” and read a lot about the sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle. Try gently stretching your neck in a quiet room and see if you can change the tinnitus. If you can, and if it was not a constant tinnitus at first, I would say with almost one hundred percent certainty it is...

    Hyperacusis/Noxacusis Healed by Tackling Mental Health

    WOW! Thanks for sharing. Did you also experience tinnitus spikes after certain sounds when you were afraid of them? I would love to see a second part where you talk a little more about your tinnitus and how it reacted. I can really relate to much of your progress. I also deal with a tense jaw...

    Really hate that alot of my coworkers got their "hands full" and put calls on speaker phone on max volume next to where i sit and talk. I always cringe for 30-60 seconds then i have to put my earplugs in but still they keep doing it everytime and saying "im so sensitive". It litterally hurt my...

    i 100 % agree with ur last sentence. Seems like somethings just make it spikes even tho the sound itself isnt that loud (or sometimes not even bothersome). Spike is sadly still ongoing. sad to hear about urs also been from loud noise exposure

    @kingsfan most (if any) people are unable to produce sounds over 8000Hz i can almost promise you that. If you take your lips and make really harsh "SHHH" sounds its typically around 4-6000 hertz. Also higher frequencies are often attenuenting more since it has less piercing effect thru objects...

    @MindOverMatter i dont even get superanxious anymore im just getting tired and irritated when the spikes comes more like "man what did i do this time" then they just linger, sometimes even tho i didnt feel like it was "loud" myself.... i would say my hyperacusis is around 70 DB now but still i...

    @MindOverMatter its so sick tho because it wasnt "that loud" and the tinnitus has been BLARING in one of my ears for a week now. So tiring and it makes me scared of going to other "fun" advents or do stuff...
