Seems like the tinnitus is really flaring up now and mostly on the ear i hit with the rake. Im feeling very low at the moment and sad, im really struggling to find the tools how to make progress with both H and T that keeps spiking and i would say in the last 2 months it got like 20 % louder. :(

Urk im so clumsy. Was out in the shed with earmuffs to remove all the leafs that blow in during the winter. Stepped on a rake that went up with full force and hit my earmuff... Little bit panicky now since it was very loud on the plastic but hope it will not make a spike.

I think it was around a week! :) Now, sadly, I’m experiencing a spike because my college roommate slammed the door with full force while I was only one to two metres away. It felt like a gunshot in my bad ear. I hope that will subside as well!

Did you get tinnitus immediately after the incident, and how close were your ears to it?

Man im so frustrated. We got these old doors at my work that are "hard to close". You need to close it and then push very hard for it to stay closed. My IDIOT college was closing the door right next to me but instead of doing it the right way he takes and close it by just smashing it shut super...

My tinnitus has been elavated for like 3-4 weeks now and i cant really find why it got louder.

Its hard to do stuff in the garden atm. Need to cut stones with a grinder so i have had my dad come to cut them for me since its to loud for me. Tried drill and use a chisel but got around 110DB so i didnt dare to challenge it. Third time my dad is here now to help me cut for like 2-3 minutes...

Ive actually had 2 days of VERY calm and good tinnitus. Ive even manage to hammer down conrete stuff that you walk on with a rubber hammer (ofc with earplugs) and no spike! So nice being outside in the warmth and do "labour" and just be able to be to good use for once! :)

Urk. I was outside walking with a coworker and they saw someone on the other side of the street so the one next to me litterally yelled STRAIGHT INTO my ear at the top of hes lugns for the other person to come join us. I reminded him to not do like that and he just brushed it off with "oh i...
