    @Ryan Scott you bet, remind me do you deal with multiple tones and reactivity?

    @ErikaS I do have more than 1 tone I think maybe 2 or 3. Or maybe it just seems to change frequency sometimes I'm really not sure. I think I may have some reactivity because the more I do the worse it seems. But then again I honestly live like a hermit and don't do much.

    @ErikaS For instance my family is cooking and swimming at my sister today but I am staying home because I don't want to chance it. The only thing I really do is drive to town to get food.

    @ErikaS I try to stay positive but as you know it can be pretty dang hard, all things considered its pretty miserable. I am starting to think the AC unit may be causing some reactivity, but what can I do just turn it off and sweat everyday. Then I can't work remote much longer but also don't think I can tolerate driving for 2 hours on the interstate every day.

    @Ryan Scott do you wear ear protection at all or do you take in ambient sounds of home? I am so sorry you’re in this position. Do you go on walks around the neighborhood when it’s quiet? That is good auditory exercise when ready.

    @ErikaS I do not wear ear plugs in my house at all, I try not to over protect. I was walking like 12 miles a week but the crop dusters have been flying so much lately I haven't. Really need to start again though.

    Well you are not alone, @Ryan Scott , even though I know it feels so lonely and isolating 24/7. We have to believe we will come out of this, and 1-3 years from now we will say "holy crap, that was so awful, never did I think I'd improve so much and live life again". I cry just about every day since my setback from Mexico, but each day down is one day closer to relief.

    @ErikaS I've been doing a lot of crying lately again too, but I agree, each day is closer to at least habituation. <3
