Thanks @glynis I’ll keep that in mind. I’ll keep posting throughout the year letting people know how I’m doing.

Sorry it's not got any easier man. Keep staying positive and you'll power through it I'm sure
Had a good month last month but back to normality since the start of august :( but I keep going strong. What about you? Any easier?
Good but nervous! Got a packed weekend end of cricket coming up so excited about that but got results day next week. How are you?
I can empathize with your son. Although I'm slightly older being 18 I'm still a teenager with tinnitus. At 5 weeks in I was just as terrified of...
Thank you to everyone will definitely go and listen to all suggested:D

Have to say all of you here at Tinnitus Talk have been amazing at helping me with tinnitus. However the person who helps me the most is my...
I'm the same with ear plugs in bars. Pubs are generally ok but that's likely due to the fact they are never full anymore which is a shame.
@glynis thank you! And @Philippe79 I understand and agree with what you're saying. Sometimes it does just feel like bad luck. I don't think I'll...
I was finally 18 on Tuesday so I can now buy a pint, go skydiving amongest many other things now. I personally don’t look forward to my birthdays...
Me wearing my team’s shirt/jersey (depending where you are from). As you can see my squad number is 4. Always has been no matter which level I’ve...
“Was that your first driving test?” He said. “Yeah” “I can tell, how do you think the test went?” “Pretty poor” I said. “Yes I’d agree but somehow...
I only watch Eurovision for the excellent commentary of graham norton (UK). Can tell he’s drinking the entire night which I think is brilliant and...
Fun game that’s so easy to relax to. Great to play with friends.
Personally I'd say it depends more on the quality of speaker/headphones than the volume to a certain extent. I have Bose headphones which were a...
I've been to Innsbruck and Salzburg in Austria. Both idelic and beautiful. So many great memories. If you got to Innsbruck definitely try the...
Wales has to be on any list. I may be slightly biased but it is sheer bliss all year around, come rain or shine it’s beautiful.
Some days I feel it and it feels like somethings trying to drag my inner ear out. This is going to sound strange but best way I can describe it is...
I always wear earplugs but never had a problem with the cinema. I love films so it’s important for me to still be able to go.
@Bobby B personally have blue eyes and white skin. Does that mean I have higher/lower levels of melatonin?
22 August 2017, a day which changed my life forever. I loved every second of that festival but I will forever remember it for the T it induced. It...
Just keep moving, constantly staying busy and preoccupied really helps. At night a fan or whatever takes my fancy on Spotify.

I often contemplate the day I got Tinnitus and it leaves me with many unanswered questions. I remember being essentially part of group of...

@Tinniger yeah it'd meant to be about the chemical industry, college think it's more beneficial to me than learning about something that affects...
Long story short in Wales all students aged 18 my do a "research project". I wanted to do mine on tinnitus as I felt it would give me a good...
@Jazzer no I haven't as I don't particularly want to become reliant on drugs to help me sleep but I am tempted to give it a go.
I do agree with @glynis but would like to make it clear I do not find the death of children funny. And certainly wouldn't run them over to stop me...
Why would I not like the quote from Happy Endings? And yes I am struggling to see what is wrong with my example? I couldn't avoid it, it...
@Bill Bauer just realised he's in the wrong so now amending posts, instead of "speak for yourself" it read "it is one of the few things I do find...
Then you're mentally disturbed. You find the deaths of children celebrating a national holiday funny, you are sick. I don't know where you are...
Also @Bill Bauer referencing terror attacks isn’t funny. After practically living in sports changing rooms I’ve heard my fair share of sick jokes...
Now I am aware people are making valid points but this thread is comedy gold. “Install dead ones (batteries)” is a personal highlight. Everyone on...
Struggling to sleep at the moment as my tinnitus is particularly loud as I have a cold and as it’s Christmas I’ve been drinking which also makes...
So it’s my first Christmas with tinnitus. Not really a presant I wanted to get myself this year but that’s life. As it’s the festive time of...
This week has been a week of perspective changing moments for me, however small they appear to others they have definitely helped me change how I...
@Chaz thank you, you're an absolute savour. I'll order a tub now as I'll need more plugs in the future inevitably anyway.
@Chaz thank you, and no that won’t be a problem as I am fairly pale in complexion. How would the foam plugs fair in regards to having a conversation?
I’ve been invited to Filipino “debut” (extremely extravagant 18 birthday bash that symbolises coming of age, yes I’d never heard of one either) of...
@Tinizzy All I can I say is don't worry, I've had T for a shorter amount of time than you but I feel everyday is progress made. Also in the...
@Bobbie7 The interview went well, was challenging and had the longest interview out of the twenty or so there but they offered me a place:)
@Bobbie7 I'll do my best to try and get my personality across. I'll keep you all posted as to how it goes and whether I get an offer.
So at time of writing it is exactly 2 months since I was walking out of the dance tent to the sound I have come to call tinnitus. I knew by the...
Wish you all the best. A reply to one of my posts was the real kick up the backside I needed so if anyone deserves to get lucky it is you. And I’m...
@glynis thank you so much and I'll look into melatonin immediately. I do appreciate the support and I feel like I've gained 10000 friends...
Thanks Michael, I will go and have a re read of the material and thanks for the support
This is my second post and thinking of things to put in this post has been a good strategy to help keep me calm when things have started to go...
Before it's been a dull ringing with sort of a melodic pattern, which has gone after 24hrs or so, this is loud and a constant high pitched hiss....
Thank you @Kolisar so much for your calming words and I will read the links you've put right away. It does mean a lot that people are willing to...
I'm Joe, I'm 17 and had the day off my life at a festival on Sunday! Listened to loud and fantastic music for about 10 hours straight. I left with...
