      Methylprednisolone started working. The muffling is gone. The ringing subsided too. Oh what a day... I hate lawns so so much. Plant flowers!

        Did the prednisolone get rid of all your t or just helped lower it?

      Using Google maps to find a city with the least amount of lawns. Villages in death valley look so depressing but not a single lawn in sight!

      I got prescription for prednisolone, hope it will help. I'm considering moving to Arizona or death valley in California. Lawns are evil...

        Did you suddenly lose your hearing in one ear because of the lawnmower this morning??? I hope the medication brings it back. So deeply sorry about this.

        Hello @ECP ! Yep, this situation is so dumb. Fortunately, methylprednisolone seems to work. My muffled feeling is gone and ringing is back to normal

      I found the only lawn-less apartment in my city. 3 more months and I'm in. But I won't survive this long in this apartment. Holy shit why

        Does your apartment complex have a predictable schedule for landscaping and lawn maintenance, for example, every Friday? If so, try to avoid being home that day if possible. If the schedule is not predictable, see if your landlord can give you a heads-up the day before so you have time to prepare.

        I can relate because they use leaf blowers and lawnmowers every Tuesday at my apartment. And I had crazy-bad luck because my husband and I have only one car, and although we both work from home, Tuesday was the only day of the week he needed to go into the office.

        So I'd be home alone every Tuesday, moving from room to room throughout the day to avoid the noise. Even with ear protection, it was distracting and painful. I felt like a moving target.

        it's terrible! my neighbor is at it again mowing his barely any inch grass. can hear him even from a few houses away. Worse is those people have no tinnitus!

      Many people say clonazepam helps them tremendously, but for me it's my ADHD meds. Maybe my ADHD is what makes habituation harder?

        Conazepam can become far less effective after using regularly for a short time and cause even bigger problems. ADHD and OCD could make it harder to habituate, or if you have severe T.

      My ADHD meds (dextroamphetamine) somehow make me ignore my tinnitus COMPLETELY. I can hear it only when I think about it. Feels so good...

        Yep. Very strange how once it starts, it doesn't seem to stop. They build up, sometimes go away, and sometimes become louder.

      Can't sleep. It's just too loud. 6 months in and still almost zero habituation :/ It's not even the loudness, it's the frequency...

        I dishabituated when I turned severe 27+ months ago. It's always severe and getting worse with time, but the squealing high pitched single tone days are the worst. I can't sleep well, even with meds.

      I've got a new static tone in my right ear. It's around 5-10 db. Hearing this is so weird because my other tones are around 60-70db...

        60-70db? Compared to last month when you were 1/10? What went wrong? My effected ear is 60-70db and I could never habituate.

        Hi @Thizzle, unfortunately I had no improvements at all. Probably my hyperacusis is less bothersome, but my tinnitus is getting worse by a little bit. I am getting new tones every 2-3 months even tho I protect my ears as much as I can :/

        When you say new tone do you mean like a new sound you can hear or like a pure tone

        Only a 1? That should be easy to habituate to. My mild to moderate tinnitus of a few years ago in the 3 to 4 range had me pretty much habituated all the time compared to when it jumped to 7 - 9 over two years ago, and I dishabituated.

        Today is finally a day. I wasn't able to sleep at all these past weeks. I can't believe today is (maybe) the last night when I sleep 5 hours instead of 7! I hope it will work. If not I'll buy another sound dampening blankets and hang them in front of the others lol. I will make my room sound proof one way or another
