I have taken Flucloxacillin for an infection on my skin that wouldn't go away and didn't notice any change. I took it for a couple days (max a...

I have the first model of the SONY NC MDX version and I mainly use it just for the NC function and don't have music or any sound on. I had no...

I have been at GamesCom twice due to work, and it is loud but I used earplugs and it was fine. I did not stay at the actual convention very long...

I haven't tried the Bose ones so I don't have much to compare it too. I use the Sony ones mainly for NC, I think the sound sounds fine, and I am...

That's an entirely different thing to want to die if you're already chronically ill to the point that it's not if you will die, but when. Seeking...

Don't tell me what I know or don't know. My sister killed herself by jumping from a 7 story building. She sure found a way to die.

You mean assistance to murder? Suicide is not illegal everywhere.

There is no such thing as dignified death. You die or you don't. The perception that death is somehow "dignified" is entirely made up. Before...

Depends how you take care of it. Mine are two years old and still look new. The higher end has better quality to be fair, mine is very flexible so...

I use the SONY WH1000XM (first gen) as I purchased these before the new models were released. I used it for the same reason as you, and I agree...

I would use medical olive oil instead. There are ear drops to lose wax that is based on olive oil or similar oils. Not harmful and it would just...

It was stressful the first few times because I wasn't sure how loud it was because I never reflected on the noise level prior to tinnitus. I have...

I have NC headphones that I use while traveling, train, subway, flight (especially flights!) because they cancel out the usual low hum noise...

The only person who likes to start things is you, to be honest. If you disagree, then you're very welcome to do so.

Glad we agree on this! :) I hope I don't come across as trying to be argumentative, but I really try to understand what people mean and sometimes...

@Autumnly Let me give you an example, I see people here giving advice all the time about sound machines and masking. When I use white noise...

No, I understand you fully, I am asking since there seems to be some kind of unspoken rule where members are attacked for saying something that is...

And would one say "Most people habituate over time" be an over-generalization?

I read that thread, and no, that person didn't claim to be a professional. You, and some others said that person's advice was garbage because that...

I can show you proof very easily in another thread (I don't wish to stir up anything or throw anyone under the bus so I will refrain from doing so...

I find this interesting, so in another thread, there are people arguing that other members' aren't professionals so their advice is garbage, yet...

Maybe you should direct your anger to sit next to a live band for 2 hours rather than Ed for suggesting there might be another reason to your...

Hey! It's hard to say when it might fully go away, everyone recovers differently. I've had a cold after my tinnitus started and it could be...

Video games for sure :) It has been my savior in reliving anxiety (not only tinnitus but even before that) because I get 100% focused on something...

@Jack Straw I'm sorry to hear that, and you're expressing much better what I tried to convey. Thank you for writing that! It's true what you say,...

You speak about truth @Jazzer and claim your truth is your own, and my truth is my own. I never said my truth is your truth or anyone else's here....

I am referring to people that want to dwell in additional misery because somehow it feels better for them to be negative about everything. But my...

Let me rephrase, some people love to add more misery to their lives :)

That's not entirely true. Some traumas you can never heal from, which is evident from us all being here at this forum.

So what made it go away then?

I think the only thing that is toxic for you guys is the way most of you behave here on this forum. It's just negativity and hostility, I'd worry...

I've had drops to dilate my eyes, found no correlation to my tinnitus. I have a really hard time understanding how these are correlated at all?...

No he is talking about this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrenal_insufficiency Adrenal insufficiency is a condition in which the adrenal glands...

Hey! I am doing fine, haven't been back for a while but popped in here since I got a DM :) It was a very slow worsening, I just noticed that it...

Remember that it is not used in every country. My country rarely if at all, prescribe prednisone for traumas. The drug does not cure anything, it...

Not everyone here has severe hyperacusis, I can understand in those cases. But if you have mild or medium T but chose to live a life where you are...

I haven't been clubbing for maybe 7 years now. I stopped going years before my T started, at most I go to a bar now and then, but not the loud ones :)

I have to agree with everything @Ed209 have posted so far. I haven't been on this site more than a handful times the past year. Why? Because I...

It does at ovulation but mainly justs before my period and during it. Sometimes I can just feel that it got louder and then I see I got my period...

I don't remember to be honest, but I believe I did once we were on cruising altitude and then took them out a bit before we started to descend.

Yes it was, it tooks a few weeks but it went down to normal.

I don't think we should speculate in respect for his family (not sure if they would come here but if they do) how Danny died. Of course, there is...

Maybe you should learn how to try to ignore it when it sets off? Because you will probably encounter times when you are thinking about it and it...

Ed, You will be missed! I'm more than grateful for all the support and advice you have given me and other members here. Please do not let bitter...

I disagree with your statement but it doesn't really matter because the only person who knows is the woman herself. What you talk about doctor's...

When my tinnitus started and the times that I really got obsessed with it, I would hear it everywhere at work. But as soon as felt more calm and...

Usually, it is some kind of catalyst (usually a negative event or new/more stress into your life) that sets off the suicidal plans. You can have...

I agree with this, I became much more neurotic after Tinnitus, something that I was not or at least very little before. I think it is more about T...

ISTJ - retook the same test that I did over 1-2 years ago and got the same results. [ATTACH]

I took both earmuffs and NC headphones with me on a 10h our trip to Asia last year. The earmuffs just in case my battery on the headphones would...

Donated :) As the others said, if I am picked, please donate the money to TT! (Sorry I've been late on this!)

I got the full vaccine (3 shots) at age 25 (was free for all women in my country up to 26) and I had zero issues at the time and now from it.

I have Sony MDR1000x NC headphones. Been using them last year or so. Mainly just to block out noise when I go to work and during flights. I...

I agree with @Ed209, all my tinnitus worries and anxiety dropped the moment my sister died of suicide. I remember my ears screaming that night...

I understand that it is very difficult for you right now, we've all been through that. You, wanting to end your life is a very permanent solution...

No, I haven't encountered any spikes or issues with it.
