    getting T was so easily avoidable (for me). and then it worsening, and worsening, and worsening, was so easily avoidable. but nope, it all had to happen didn't it. with all kinds of physical pain now too. safe to say i did NOT handle T well.

    I've been producing music everyday for nearly a whole month now, just on my laptop speakers, mostly quiet. i used to produce a lot of music before in headphones (and never got T from that). Anyway, it's the only thing that makes me not wanna die and I don't hear the T during it, I helps me forget my reality. That's the beauty of music. But overall I think it's making my T worse so I need to take it easy :(

    @tobyharrixon It's been years. I was signed to a Universal imprint label for a while, then played in the hardcore scene in San Diego—shared a practice space with Lower Definition and some of the guys from Of Mice & Men—then did some live session work in Los Angeles with an up-and-coming Warner Records artist before settling down with a family. Anything after that has been just messing around, playing covers, etc. I can't really play at all anymore, even unplugged, with hyperacusis/noxacusis troubles.

    @tobyharrixon Don't have to keep the session as a whole short, just take lots of breaks to give your ears a bit of a rest.

    my 30th birthday is 30th January, planning to return up into the stars & asteroids then. Tinnitus, unexplained foot pain & crippling depression is too big a hole and I can't face what my life has become.

    Have you had some improvements since then? Was it the acupuncture that made it worse the most?

    improved after initial onset, then had shoulder injury and stupidly decided to take mirtazapine & zopiclone to sleep, made things worse. got a bit better after that but then worse after random high pitched pure tone exposure from my phone - that was the worse spike, introduced new very high pitch T and T no longer went quiet in mornings after. . also dabbled in benzos, and tried trazodone once which didn't do any good either.

    Foot pain currently bad and hard to sleep but really don't want to take any more meds so loading up on herbal teas and valerian and magnesium etc but feel like even some of that causes spikes.

    if i hadn't had shoulder injury and avoided meds, i'd be a lot better or even healed by now.

    Last year I took three minimal doses of Lexapro, and it made my T so much worse. I'm not exaggerating when I say it took months to subside, so hang in there. You can and will get better.

    how does marijuana effect your tinnitus? Admittedly, i was never a smoker, but I tried edibles once and it made my T go through the roof.
