    I'm glad that you don't wake up at night with a loud T, and that your mornings are quiet.

    Thanks Bill, that is a blessing. The one surprising thing for me in all of this, is that I can sleep. So strange, I had chronic insomnia for a solid year in 2018.

    @twa that's strange - I also suffered from chronic insomnia for a year in 2018! Half way through that year, is when my pulsatile tinnitus started. Then after that year, my health rapidly declined. I also sleep absolutely fine now, even though I have regular T as well as PT now.

  My family is so loud. If they had hyperacusis I would bend over backwards to make a quiet environment for them.

    If they don't care whether or not you get hurt, you need to find a way to hurt them bad enough for them to care about avoiding THAT.

    I've had to use my smarts and encourage them to go see the grandparents for a few hours of quiet, except for the dog.

    A few hours of quiet is less likely to promote your healing. Complete silence for months barely promotes it. There is a chance that you will make progress and feel better 2-3 years after the onset despite the noise. However, there is also a chance that the noise will cause you to lose the opportunity to get your life back 2-3 years from now...

  Good night all, praying we wake up tomorrow to the news of a treatment for hearing loss!

  I eat almost perfectly, I take supplements, I walk daily, I go to the chiropractor for therapy, what else can I do?

  My dog jumped on the stove and turned on the gas! We've been outside for 2 hours waiting for the gas guy to turn off the gas. T is loud :-(

  It's the little steps along the way that measure progress. Start a journal page so you can gauge the subtleties in your journey to recovery.

  Three days of doing normal things, going out to pick up lunch, car to the shop, getting a haircut. My anxiety about going out has calmed.

  Best couple of days I've had in 5 months. Tinnitus is still going, but hyperacusis is slightly better.

  We have thawed out here in Texas! Thankfully, most people now have power, heat, water and cable. It was a challenge with hyperacusis.

  We've had to keep faucets running 24/7 so pipes do not freeze, when I turn them off my tinnitus/hyperacusis feels so much better!

  So husband wants to know why I don't go to another doctor to fix the hyperacusis because it's unlivable, for him.

  Five days home during a winter storm with family. I wish they understood hyperacusis and tinnitus.

  I had ear burning this morning. I haven't had burning in 2-3 months. Is this caused from a noise exposure?

  Has anyone been able to go to a large event, sporting, movie, musical, etc. safely before Covid, that is?

  School is closing AGAIN on Monday and then virtual the rest of the week. It makes for louder days inside the house.

  Please reconsider videos and other sounds in your posts and profiles. I encountered one that played automatically and loudly.

  The car duty teacher yelled in her bullhorn just as I was driving by. Glad I had earplugs in!!!

  My family has not been to church in 11 months. I'm going to try to go tomorrow, wear earplugs and avoid the worship service. Thoughts?
