Apparently overprotection like listening to TV super quiet and wearing earplugs were the problems. I only use an earmuff now

To the extent that you can, try to minimize the number of pills that you take...

@Bill Bauer May I ask why? Are they dangerous?

Based on what I read on this forum, it is my understanding that one could get addicted. As time goes on, one needs to increase the dosage to achieve the same effect. If one gets addicted, it is hard to break the habit - withdrawal is torturous.

I don't think that would have mattered much, most music is produced to have the simillar frequency content. Volume and type of headphones matter more

Try not to worry about it. In the end, it doesn’t even matter.

hi

Hi!

i have a friend on antipyschotics who told me they are pretty much causing depression.

I've been taking them more than 2 months. I get very sleepy when I take them.

Absolutely. Happened with me. It went down after two weeks though.

What do you have?

It's Sound Oasis s650.

And also a horrible distortion in the sound I hear. It went fine but it's so sad there is not a one thing I can control.

I hope that it's not serious and that you are feeling better.

Thank you. It wasnt anything I should worried about, after all.

I am always surprised to see how Christian americans still are. Here in Western Europe literally no one reads the bible anymore

Letter From an Unknown Woman by Stefan Zweig :)

It is not good for my heart... And I am not writing this negativity to bring down hopes of other people. Just a genuinly record of my 'phantom' symptoms. Hope you adapt to where you are.

I am glad I have at least good literatures to indulge into. Makes me absorbed in them.

Let's wait five years to see where I end up in. Make it a good research on myself. I will let you know!

The apartment where I live is newly built and when you're not opening the window it's very quite. There are big roads besides here so we nearly didn't open the window at all for about 4 years except for about 30 minutes for ventilation. I wonder this has caused my condition to become worse?

First onset of hyperacusis happened after I moved here for 6 months. Because of the fear, wearing earplugs when going out became a natural thing. Not much noise exposure and could it be possible that this sorely is the cause? I'll have to open them at least 5 hours a day for 4 months and see what happens.

Otherwise, I resort to earplugs

Which games will you play?

Thief2, Cities: Skylines, Amnesia: the dark descent and the like. Do you know any good games to play?

Amongst my favorites are the Bioshock series, Mass Effect series and Skyrim. I also have Cities Skylines lying around, I will give it a try soon :)
