I cant even talk at a low volume with someone. Everything hurts my ears and tinnitus new tones are RAGING. I only tried to have a walk with earplugs and do some exercise (going up and down a staircase)
I get the ear fatigue too. I think it is basically like eye strain for the ears. The thing is...when you get eye strain, you can just close your eyes. Ear fatigue is harder to escape.
I know there are many people on this forum who avoid silence at all costs but because my T is reactive to outside sounds, I actually do much better in total isolation.
I cannot even bear my own voice for longer period of time. How is this torture going to end? How am I supposed to go to the office for work and not loose my job and life? Why is there so many different tones inside my head which are raging for no reason?
Try not to use earplugs at home, it its will only cause stress to your ears, and humidity inside your ears. To beat H you need to expose your ears to normal sounds. It is better if you just hold your fingers to your ears when you need to.
I know how it feels. My own voice used to knock me off my feet. It takes time, bit H will get better. And when H gets better T tends to ease a bit too.
