    I worked today. T started off bad. But it seemed to level off throughout the shift, and now it's much reduced... I don't need to mask at all.

    I've noticed this is a common trend. Days where I don't work usually means terrible T all day. Days where I work... I'm OK once I get back.

    This isn't a matter of, oh, I'm noticing it less - it's objectively quieter.

    I wonder why this happens, and how to replicate it on days where I don't work?

    About four months into a nasty spike. It began with an increase in my right ear beep (one of the first sounds I heard back in 2020). The usual masking noise didn't work, so I started adding crickets on top. More bad days than good, and the bad days are bad. Started a new job; usually T is less bad after working a shift. A few good days but it seems even the good days aren't back to baseline. The major change: louder static in both ears. Trying hard to cope with the Back to Silence Method, which helps, but I usually just end up masking ...

    But [knock on wood] the beep is slowly fading back down. The increased static is more resilient. Oh well. Here's to more good days!

    This is such an awful process. I know I'm getting better, but it's just so dang slow. I started a new job in July, too, when it was still in its worse stages. Adapting to a new job while going through this is not fun at all.

    Today's my four-year tinniversary. Yay! When do the perks start kicking in? Amazon Gift Card? Free McDonald's coffees? Anything?

    I'm entering a bad phase again. Goddamn it. I had the better part of a month there where I could focus on other things.

    I am also in a very bad phase. I can't even watch TV or play videogames. I hope things get better for us!

    Your profile name would be so fitting for me.
