    Ear Pressure and Pain After a Restroom Hand Dryer and Child Screaming

    @Trafalgar D, this is a really informative post, well done. I was wondering how I could find those two German forums on hyperacusis, the links aren't loading for me. I'm also not sure if I'm at the right place to access the Tinnitus-Liga Forums. Thank you.

    Me too. Honestly the noxacusis and tinnitus spike is probably due to the undetected noise exposure more than anything, it's just that I started the CBD isolate at the same time as the noise exposure started so I originally thought I was experiencing ototoxicity. So I'm seeing some behavioral...

    The Mechanisms Underlying Tinnitus and Hyperacusis: A Comprehensive Overview

    Yeah, I don't think the problem is hearing loss (some of us with noxacusis don't even have noticeable hearing loss), it's definitely something wired into us specifically that changes our bodies' reaction to sounds.

    Did Cannabis or Loud Music Through Headphones Cause My Tinnitus?

    So I don't bother with spectrum anything. I just take CBD isolate, there's nothing else in there except for Cannabidiol. I find it helps me with sleep and calms me down. It's definitely different for everyone tho.

    Did Cannabis or Loud Music Through Headphones Cause My Tinnitus?

    It might be because of the THC? It's known to spike tinnitus in some people. It usually goes away though. CBD isolate seems to have no effect on mine at the moment, I'm up to 25 mg in a day.
