    Is complete silence bad for reactivity? Everything I do seems to make it worse, I don't know what to do anymore. I also have this weird distorded mettalic sound with it.

    Salut, I also have a sort of electric/metallic sound that seems to move around inside my head.
    This is one of the 5 sounds I hear that bothers me the most.
    Complete silence is not good for hyperacusis. Your hears have to get used little by little to noise. But loud noise is definitely dangerous!

    This reactivity is killing me. I can't believe it only started because I paid attention to my TTTS again and built up anxiety. I really hope it gets better.

    I've been under a lot of stress over the last few days, and now I'm getting a feeling of ear fullness in my right ear, accompanied by a very strong reactivity to everything. It's so bad I can't focus on anything. What am I supposed to do in this situation?

    It will pass. Its just to ride it out sadly.

    I can't believe I managed to be sick at this time of year. I don't even know what it is but it sure makes my T insanely loud and reactive.

    If being sick wasn't bad enough then you have T on top of it. Sorry to hear. I'm sure your T will go down once the illness gets better.

    I don't know what to do anymore to protect my ears when I need to go to the city. Ear plugs occlusion is just too much when I walk.

    I have custom molded ear plugs for going to town, and loud places, but unfortunately the occulsion is as bad wearing those as wearing my other ear plugs, or noise cancelling headphones.
    I'd also love to find a solution as my sound reactivity really reacts to the occulsion

    @DeanD I've had custom molds made twice so far. I asked for them to be deep and with the least amount of occlusion each time.

    The second pair is much better than the first pair, but I will admit that deeply inserted foam are still the best. I can get close to 0 occlusion with foam.

    I insert them until there is barely enough to grab to remove them: https://www.profithearing.com/how-to-use-ear-plugs/

    I second @kingsfan. Deeply inserted foam plugs are what you need. Occlusion is barely audible, if at all
