        @Farida yeaaaa I’m sure I will. The initial anxiety of a spike is always annoying

      having less random pains when exposed to too much loud noise. Still have earplugs but it’s nice to not have to suffer if Im not fast enough.

      Hello, checking in again. Ive been having a problem where 1 ear canal feels hot & hurts sometimes. Normally it’s on days when T is louder
    11. JLong

      Pretty shitty of T to get louder when you’re stressed, bc of course it would. thanks T

      I want to say I can only hear the T now in a quiet room! Knock on wood but the improvement feels so good

        Congratulations!

        If you ever stop hearing it, even in a quiet room with earplugs in, please let us know.

      Anniversary with T was yesterday. I tried to do something fun instead of thinking about it. Hopefully by next May 19th it’ll be a whisper

        I LOVEEEE the sound of projectors, it perfectly masks my t at collage. It’s not too loud or quiet, perfect!

      Playing video games is one of the only ways I can fully ignore the tinnitus. It takes almost my full attention and it’s kind of soothing.

      Small update: some days I don’t notice it, some days I hyper-focus on it. Finally can fall asleep without a noise in the bg to distract me

        Did it fade, or did you habituate?

        I still have ringing, it’s quiet now but I’m no longer at the point where I obsess over it. I expect it to fade so here’s hoping!

      Tinnitus has become quiet hissing/crackling in the past week. Hopefully some sort of hurdle has been reached

        Dude I have Severe Tinnitus. It is so bad. I dont understand why you want to have this. If you want to listen to music, listen to it over the laptop.
