    Severe Two-Week Tinnitus Spike After Vacuuming Despite Wearing Earmuffs

    Yes, I definitely agree with this. I’m currently going through a spike because of a brief situation where I didn’t use hearing protection. The noise was around 70 to 80 dB, metallic and close range, lasting about 30 to 45 seconds. It felt loud, but I think stress is just making the spike worse...

    Desperate for Help with Severe Reactive Tinnitus and Life Impact

    Reactive tinnitus usually takes a lot of time and effort to improve, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy can be helpful. But you can absolutely get much better. I’m living proof of that, now six years down the road. You also have to remember that this process is not linear. It never will be. I’d...

    Lenire — Bimodal Stimulation Treatment by Neuromod

    This is it. Companies like Neuromod make no mention of natural improvement over time or the placebo effect. Avoid Lenire.

    Yeah. But I think it was a bit worse this time, I was right next to a loud sound source probably closer to 90db for like at least 30-45 seconds without proper hearing protection, only a hood, if you can even call that protection :/ I'm of course hoping this passes like all the other times but...

    Yes my wardrobe incident made a huge setback but now im on track again. I think 99.5% of my setbacks probably are just temporary and i think the brain is alot to blame about that. Had 2 "loud" incidents today but i just goofed it off saying "there is possibly not a reason to worry" and sure as...

    Severe Two-Week Tinnitus Spike After Vacuuming Despite Wearing Earmuffs

    My spike was bothering me even more, and I ended up doing something drastic. I’m okay now, although the spike has only slightly improved. It has gone back up, but it’s hard to describe. It’s not yet at my previous baseline, but that intense hell it was has eased somewhat, even if it hasn’t...

    How to Manage Reactive Tinnitus Setback?

    The stress certainly made it a lot worse. It sounds to me like the tinnitus increases with external sounds and then returns to normal soon after they stop. The Meniere's is unilateral in my left ear only, and it appears the reactive tinnitus affects my left ear. I've considered wearing an...

    Seven Months After Acoustic Trauma: Tangled Between Progress and Fear

    I remember seeing your thread as I’ve moved around the boards. I’d like to keep following your story since we’re on such similar timelines and experiences. The hardest thing for me is the guilt. Knowing this didn’t have to happen if I had just stayed out of the furnace room. I don’t know why the...

    M31: Tinnitus After a Work Event Night Out

    Yeah, it can unfortunately be hard to tell when you need protection. But if your first reaction is that the noise makes you uncomfortable, that’s probably a clear sign. I’m no medical professional, but this is just what I’ve observed. Sometimes you can also be more sensitive to certain...

    2024 US Presidential Election

    Hey dummy, you should probably read up on history. The Democratic Party were the ones in the hoods with burning crosses, riding horses, and hanging Black people. Do better if you want to stay relevant while bashing the greatest president to ever hold office.

    How to Manage Reactive Tinnitus Setback?

    I think reactive tinnitus is caused by damage-beyond-damage. Your brain hears a lot of different frequencies from 'traffic-noise'. The brain is perhaps filling in the spaces for the numerous frequencies you have lost hearing, hence the reaction. This is similar to how the blindspot in your...

    How to Manage Reactive Tinnitus Setback?

    Ditto. My neighbors just love their leaf blowers, too. Can't even walk in the neighborhood anymore. Honestly, my tinnitus will react to something like going into a store (not stressful) and then stay elevated until the next day. Or maybe the stressor is just the hearing loss I have, but...
