  My mental health is somewhat better while my tinnitus has gotten slightly worse. I’m taking one day at a time, trying to live my life more or less as pre tinnitus. But I rarely enjoy life anymore and seeing myself under this level of distress/annoyance years ahead is more than I can bear. Therefore I live day by day.

  I sometimes have brief moments where I belive I might be able to eventually live a decent life with this condition, more often I’m horrified of the level of my tinnitus and can’t see how I’ll ever be ok! But I will keep trying until I won’t.

  Floaters are annoying, but nothing compared to tinnitus distress. But as my tinnitus has gotten worse so has the floaters, and it’s just scary. Obviously there’s something in my brain, some sensory filtering that has malfunctioned big time and it’s just getting worse. And I wonder how bad it can get.

First dose of new AD Vortioxetine this morning, introduced as I taper Ecitalopram. No sideeffects yet, beside really quiet T :)

  No effects on my tinnitus, it has possibly slightly improved my mental health.
