I got my latest spike a month ago when I went to a bar and club while wearing earplugs (I made a separate post about it). I kept the earplugs in the entire evening, spoke with them in, and even did a bit of jumping around (me dancing), all while keeping the earplugs on. Afterwards, I noticed...

I experienced a severe spike just over a week ago, and I am currently using ChatGPT as my virtual support partner. Every day, I share my progress with it—both the good moments and the difficult ones. I also rate my days with a score, such as “Today was a 7.3 out of 10.” I highly recommend...

It has been a while since I have been here. About three years, actually. I have had my tinnitus and hyperacusis for about six years now, and honestly, the last couple of years have been good. I found a new passion after quitting music, and I have enjoyed my life more than I did when I had...

It's been over 3 years since I got tinnitus & hyperacusis. It's been a long fight and for the last 6 months I have barely even noticed my tinnitus or hyperacusis anymore, they were almost gone. I was happy. Then last weekend my friends asked me out for a night. I thought "Oh well. It's been...

I am so happy. I bought myself new pair of Bluetooth speakers and suddenly I noticed that I have been listening music for hours on normal volume levels for days now. 80s music, jazz music, game music, all kinds of music! I am so happy I could scream! Well here it goes...

I was stupid enough to go inside a nightclub yesterday. It was this newcomers party at my school I started. We spent evening in a nearby park, no music there, but then people moved in to a nightclub. So, as I knew I didn't want to spend hours in nightclub, I just went into nightclub for about 40...

I've been gone from the forums for a while. I've been taking vacation from my problems (thanks to the movie: What About Bob?) and I've been taking baby steps back to normal life. I have even been to the gym again! My ears could finally handle all the sounds of metal (music and weights). So it's...

There was me before tinnitus and after tinnitu. Ever since I got tinnitus, I've had much more problems concentrating. I used to have plenty of ideas and my thoughts were clear...

This is new to me. I woke up and it was so silent I even forgot I had it. It's still there but much more silent than usually. Also, world seems to be quieter today. As it has been so loud ever since got tinnitus. But today it seems... Quieter. What is this? I even listened to music...

[fade in] Generic trailer voice: You cannot escape from it. You cannot hide from it. It rings. Rings and rings. 24 hours a day. Until you... Die. From the DIRECTOR OF "I Know What You Did Last Summer" and from the producers of "Scary Movie" This summer... You will hear... Only... [fade in...

Ever since tinnitus I've had too much time on my hands. My hobbies used to be: Creating music Playing videogames Listening music Jogging / running Gym Now? I can only do the jogging. Still haven't been to gym since my financial situation is not the best and there is usually some loud music...

I have some good days and bad days. Currently I cannot relax to concentrate on anything. I am tired. Exhausted. I want out from all this (not kill myself). My mind is racing 24/7 figuring out ways what to do with my life, how to move forward. I've always had days where every external sound from...

I have Cola, candy, chips, tinnitus and old PS1 games. This is going to be one Easter all right!

I have noticed that pseudoephedrine does increase the volume of my tinnitus. Does it have to do something with cochlear blood flow? I am pretty sure this sound in my head is blood flow related even if I got hearing damage. -exercise increases tinnitus -pseudoephedrine increases tinnitus...

I read a topic from Reddit and someone mentioned a medicine that increases blood flow in inner ear and it helped his tinnitus. Has anyone heard (no pun intended) about such medicine and what's it called?

I caused this to myself. I hate myself for it. But what I hate even more that the small scientist inside me finds this condition so fascinating. I can't sleep well. Can't make music. I am angry, irritated, tired. I miss silent mornings. I miss silence. Yet why still I find this beast inside my...

I was on a mall yesterday, had 2 spikes and when I got home I noticed it felt strange under my ear. When I pressed it, it felt like in ear infection sort. of feeling. Tingling and pressure. It was strange. Anyone else with something similar?

Is this a good sign? I feel almost like a radio now trying to find a station. Today my tinnitus has been very active. Of course I've done some cleaning today, cooked food and listened music on very low volume from TV while cleaning. Sometimes I feel almost normal, then it comes back loud, then...

Why is this? I am now vacuuming without earplugs, and now I took a amall break and I noticed there was a moment of almost complete silence. Now as the silence continues, the tinnitus noises are coming gradually back. Can someone explain this?

My ENT gave me Prednisolone. 80mg / day for 7 days 40mg / day for 2 days 20mg / day for 2 days Now I am on day 3 of Prednisolone. Tinnitus has lasted about 2 weeks. I got it from exposing myself to too much music during several days. Improvements: -High pitch noise has reduced. -I can...

At first my tinnitus was this high pitch steady noise. Now it's more like hiss and white noise and the high pitch whine has moved to background. Is this good? Also I noticed the hissing is in my right ear and when I bite my jaw together it disappears a bit. It sounds like deflating tire. Also...

Life works in mysterious ways. Once in my life I took a risk, changed a job and found a GF. Once I got fired and during unemployment I made my first officially released music track. I damaged my hearing and now I am here. You are here. Every decision in my life has led me to this exact moment...

What are most annoying symptoms for you having tinnitus. Mine are: not able to sleep well and sound sensitivity. I hate this high pitch sound in my head too but I hate even more that I am sensitive to certain sounds. Even birds singing feel bad in my ears :<

Hi all, This is my electronic music project and unfortunately it is now at halt because I got my tinnitus few weeks ago. I am still in the beginning of my career and this tinnitus is not a good thing to have right now... If you are interested, go give a listen. :) any feedback is more than...

I have never heard my jaw muscles in my ear. But after getting tinnitus, I can hear a hissing swoosh when I clench my jaw together. It seems tinnitus amplifies the sounds that are inside our head. At least that is how I feel. I have normal hearing according to an audiogram.

Or the sound of my operating system. Actually it kinda is. I've always wanted to be a robot. Or cyborg. I had to invent this for myself to keep myself going. It helps. For a moment. Role-playing.

Helps for me at this moment.

I could've avoided this. This was my own stupidity for doing too long hours and not letting my ears rest. I hate myself for this. I've done pretty stupid things in the past but this.. I can't enjoy anything. I've even noticed I have been more distant to my girlfriend. If I hug her, I don't...

I have noticed my eardrums become sore during the day, and at evenings they are sore. Why is this?

Hello everyone, This is my first post here and the reason I joined a foreign forum is because I think I can have more knowledge and support from larger forums. I am 35-years old (turned this February) and I've never had a tinnitus in my life. Now I got tinnitus. Why? Because of my own...
