You got me there bud... :) It was actually a really easy set-up. I approached the real ENT in a hallway and asked him if the rag in my hand...

All good Ed... bed time for me now.

You sir can hold my coat anytime..;)

I know what you said...the way it was worded leaves no room for misinterpretation... unfortunately. Again I have nothing against you personally...

I did Dave...but as I was already explaining above, lot of people do not feel comfortable with having their quotes shared on such public platform....

I'm not shy about speaking out...and when I get attacked, I tend to fight back. All good here bro...:)

Look... I know you mean well, but you did say what that the aim of the guide is for people not to be afraid.

I was asking you a simple question... you answered with bullshit to the sense that somehow I'm supposed to know who the ambassadors are. Well I...

Anytime... after your condescending comments to me, you had earned it. Maybe you are one of those guys who can dish it out, but can't take it?

Yes I was, but then I run into a problem. Turns out some people don't want me to use their quotes because they are not comfortable.....that was...

What he really meant to say was: "let's cure the thing that nobody should be afraid of"

Sorry... I'm not in your little tinnitus "in" crowd.

Your personal attacks do not interest me...and sharing a post is not really too much work for anyone (at least I hope not). Also...getting told...

And who exactly are the real advocates if you don't mind me asking? Is it the people whose AIM is to make sure that people are not afraid of...

That is your opinion... Look I don't really need the cure that bad. My tinnitus is mild to moderate these days... but there are people on this...

And exactly what kind of action do you propose I do? I already told you, I refuse to get involved in projects, that undermine tinnitus... Yes...

I was hoping to plant some kind of a seed and maybe people from here to send it to their friends, whom would maybe send it to theirs. It would be...

I will tell you what I'm doing outside this forum. I'm NOT undermining the tinnitus cause of those who suffer. By doing that I'm already doing...

I did... I proposed an actual no nonsense tinnitus scale and trying to raise awareness that way. What else do you exactly want me to do?

I'm not making any assumptions... the lady herself said that the AIM of the project is for people not to be afraid of tinnitus. Do you know what...

Those are the ones who need support the most... those are the ones whose lives are literally in danger.

Ok you got me... I have no respect for people who downplay tinnitus. The fact that they worked really, really hard does not interest me.

Did you, or did you not say that your aim is for people not to be afraid of tinnitus? That one means literally EVERYTHING. It is a huge deal...

Again... don't try to convince me about your worthy cause anymore. I already explained to you above, what the big issue is. Put it this way......

Again.. as your colleague had stated earlier, your aim is to make sure that people are "not afraid of tinnitus". I'm not sure if I'm in some kind...

You don't need to explain yourself anymore. As I stated earlier, you are doing an excellent job......at delaying any hope for a cure. Thanx again.

Yes but there is a huge difference there Ed...you are actually actively LOOKING for information on tinnitus. Most average people are not...but...

After what you wrote about your aim being "not wanting to scare people", I want nothing to do with you or your projects. If your aim is to delay...

And RIGHT THERE is the reason why nobody will take tinnitus seriously. Why would they? "There's nothing to be afraid of". What you are doing is...

Bingo...if the target demographic are mainly academics, whom don't mind reading some long 500 page essay along with all the sources, this is a...

Well, if this is supposed to be some sort of a guide to tinnitus for average person out there (as I understand it), the fact that most people's...

I hope I'm wrong, but judging by your description it sounds like a very complicated lengthy write-up of sorts?

That is good news...are the Tinnitus Talk members allowed to make suggestions, or is it some kind of a behind the doors private project?

Not reacting to tinnitus is like not reacting to being continuously punched in the face. It is truly sad, that here we are in year 2018 and...

Yes Ed, sorry for late reply, but this is exactly what I'm trying to do. In order for someone on the outside to even begin to understand this...

Reading your post is very heart breaking....yet you are still here helping others by providing all kinds of good information. I hope, that you do...

Thank you for the kind words. There is also another rather eerie Titanic paralell here... The willingness to alienate and sacrifice the lower...

If I understand your post correctly, you are suggesting to focus on the symptoms and leave the emotional distress out. I'm afraid this would only...

The main thing is the intrusiveness....volume is secondary and it is not that accurate means of assessment from what I'm able to gather. At the...

As @Ed209 has correctly pointed out we indeed all are on the same ship. I hope nobody minds too much if I offer another analogy: The ship is...

Another great strategy....you are a real thinker. Compare your opponent to Hitler. I can clearly see, that I hit a nerve with you somewhere......

I think that asking why you contradicting yourself was pretty rational, but I digress. I do understand, that the best strategy for someone in...

You are clearly confused...there is no marginalizing on my part..I only point out the ugly facts. You on the other hand live in a fantasy world,...

I hope you feel great about your little jab attempt at Bam's message. It is exactly this kind of ignorance, that reinforces the beliefs that if...

Yes I have also noticed the chest pounding/crying routine with some individuals. The only somewhat logical explanation would be, that maybe it is...

Just like @Bam, I have no useful advice to give you... but I also understand what kind of hell you are going through. I only encourage that you...

Yes it is indeed very likely, that a scale like that would fail convey your particular situation. But if we want to convey a message to the...

Well, for example if you are unable to sleep, relax or focus because of tinnitus, I would say that the intrusiveness is pretty high and go from...

I would say the level of intrusiveness is or should be the determining factor. Each of us here instinctively know what level we are at (roughly)...

Yes as you had correctly pointed out there are hundreds of stories here just like yours.... You got lucky the first time and you might get lucky...

You need to remove yourself from that environment ASAP. Do you have any other family or friends you could stay with? If so, you need to make...

I applaud your efforts to try to solve this problem through natural means... there are few others here such as @JohnAdams, whom might appreciate...

Tinnitus is the sound equivalent to waterboarding. This is why the likes of CIA and others use sound as a means of extracting information out of...

I'm guessing, that bitching about other peoples bitching must be your "weight" adding strategy?

Would you consider starting your own YouTube channel? Something like a "The Tinnitus Whistle Blower" maybe? Then we all could get anyone who...

Get rid of her ASAP...this person is not a good match for someone in your situation. Even if your spike subsides (which it probably will), it's...

Reading this makes me literally sick to my stomach. I hope that all the tinnitus apologists and chest pounders on this board do read your post...

Ideally, this is a perfect place for a team of investigative journalists to come into and expose this lethal condition for what it is... A short...

That guy is a perfect example of yet another typical medical ass clown... I would like to revert to my old analogy of rigging a cattle prod to...
