    New University of Michigan Tinnitus Discovery — Signal Timing

    It's marginally off-topic, but the entire FDA is getting gutted, apparently. The last time Trump was in office, he cut a tremendous amount of red tape within the FDA. Regardless of your politics, this should be good for us, right?

    2024 US Presidential Election

    "Flubbed" is putting it kindly. She was driven to depression and suicidal after that response. I think the point is that the majority of Trump voters are low-information, low-intelligence voters. Of course, there are always exceptions, but it allowed Trump to win.

    @twa I need to undergo an oral surgery. A cyst in the upper roof of my mouth needs to be removed. They will be sedating me. After that I will need to take antibiotics as well as pain killers. Did you too take either of these post your surgery? If yes, what was the impact on H/T ?

    @Nick47 also currently doing .25mg during day and .5mg at night just from illness and very hectic work week. I will also say the mindset of keeping myself occupied/distracted very much helps me. Distortions are much quieter and crazy sounds that came on in August have calmed down a lot.

    What Actually Causes Tinnitus Distress?

    I'm not sure why you'd think that, given that most (though not all) of us are born without tinnitus. Then, at some point, something happens—acoustic trauma, illness, toxicity, etc.—that damages our hearing system, and tinnitus appears. We are not naturally meant to live with a constant...

    @in_the_shadows, if it helps, the type of sound—though sometimes more distressing—is actually meaningless. I experience all sorts of sounds that vary. Without any treatments, the specific types of sounds don’t really matter. Unless I’m missing something? Please correct me if I’m wrong.

    How to Cope with Irregular Tinnitus Sounds?

    Reactive tinnitus isn’t very common, even among those seeking help on this forum. In fact, some people refuse to acknowledge it as a real condition. If you mention “reactive tinnitus” to an audiologist or ENT, it’s likely the first time they’ll have heard the term.
