    Hi @mknature. How are you? And do the hearing aids to the trick with your T? Hope it's going e-ok

    Hi @Christiaan Honestly while the hearing aids help, I can hear the T over other sounds and adjusting to the amplification, the feeling of the aids in my ears, and the T has got me feeling not great. I had low t before but this is plain torture.

    How are you doing? Looks like your T is new too. Please tell me it gets better. Is yours reactive? How do you tell?

    Ey there! It's a shame that your T has increased recently in volume. But there's always a chance that it will settle down in a couple of months. Like many on this forum, I had a spike and a few new tones in the mix but the volume went down a bit after a month or two. So fingers crossed it will go the same way for you too!

    Reactive T? Do you have that as well? I had that a few months ago, but thank to God got rid of it. It’s one of the nastiest buggers imaginable. One of my T was sensitive to certain high pitch electric devices, like a radio or gas hob. Every time I was near such a thing, my T would change in a higher pitch. The weird thing is that after two months the T dropped its reactivity, luckily enough;)

    Oh, it changes pitch? Mine seems to get louder when I run water, take a shower, or have a fan on, no pitch change though! Maybe I'm just thinking it's louder but it isn't. I would love for the volume to go down on its own! Fingers crossed! I'm about 3 weeks in at this point, it changes volume daily.

    Ey @mknature, just saw an alert of your reaction weirdly enough. Yeah, it was both a pitch and volume issue.

    That sounds bothersome. So you don't have anything to mask your T or something else for relief? Relaxtion is the holy grail when dealing with Tenacious T. Anyway, I hope you're doing alright despite the recent change. I'm rooting for you:)

    Finally able to load TT properly today; my ISP isn't playing nice with it...thank you :) I've started daily guided meditation and playing jazz music seems to calm me and distract me a lot better than rock (something about the voices?). The only thing that seems to mask it is the shower. I'll be extra clean forever! :P Also the cicadas are coming out soon and I'm hoping they'll mask it too. Rooting for you too!

    Hey MK!And thank you too. To the sound of it, you’re probably so squeaky clean that even darn covid will slip right off of you. At least that counts for something right;) Great to hear how you deal with it. Jazz is freaking A. Personally, I wouldn’t let go of rock. It’s too dear to me and everybody needs their happy place right? Keep meditating and hopefully you reach enlightenment in no time! Namasté
