Thank you, it has been the same since it all began, it was just a matter of adjusting all over again. No more boosters/vaccinations since then, I...

Signed! (y) By the way, I like your GC Christmas avatar. Now that's the Christmas spirit. :LOL: [ATTACH]

I love his red shoes, @jcb. :LOL: Be careful the next time you venture out into your garden, he is a big guy! So nice to hear from you....

A fast taper is very unwise, instead, a slow and steady taper is advisable. Cold turkey is never suggested when coming off of a benzodiazepine....

Yes, this is the best thing we can do. We can also try to comfort one another when the chips are down and hopelessness sets in, rather than...

So sorry that you are upset, @Greg Sacramento. :huganimation:

I truly understand your struggle @DaveFromChicago. :huganimation: I was told to go home and "google" CBT.

Yes, everybody is different, isn't this the truth? The frustrated and suffering members on this forum may find it very difficult to see their way...

I agree, Pitseleh. There is no cure. For me, acceptance is key to living my best life. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

I believe that a cat always wins, @Michael Leigh. ~.~ The mouse that my cat swallowed was a baby, tiniest thing, ever. It all happened so fast....

I think all benzodiazepines help with the anxiety that we experience with our tinnitus and much less to do with the actual lowering of the volume....

Great story, @Michael Leigh, I thoroughly enjoyed it. The photo of your cat perched on the balcony railing made me a bit nervous. Cats and high...

You are stronger than you give yourself credit for, I feel. Those who suffer with catastrophic tinnitus and continue on, doing their best to...

Thank you, @MindOverMatter. Your username is quite appropriate for this discussion. ;)

Thank you, @SonOfUhtred. Also, thank you for this discussion, we can never get enough information. It is so important to share our experiences...

You are welcome, @Lane, it is nice to hear from you, as always. No, I have not heard this adage, unfortunately. May I ask what your thoughts are...

Thanks for not using the term "malarkey." "Ridiculous," though? Nobody in this discussion referred to a "one size fits all" approach....

Don't be so quick to judge what may work for someone in their journey with tinnitus, @AnthonyMcDonald. Seriously speaking, our minds are a very...

Keep your hope, @SonOfUhtred. Keep going, stay positive, eat healthy and exercise. Suicidal despair is not for you.

Hello, @shrimp. How encouraging to hear that you are doing a bit better, progress is progress and this is a good sign. I am doing well, thank-you...

If I may say @Mins, you are not letting anyone down, this is something that happened to you, it is not your fault. My coping strategy has not...

Yes, I have read much the same information and I agree that the impact for hearing loss is much worse in unvaccinated people. Yet, here I am,...

Hello, @linearb. You are so fortunate to have your substantial spikes actually go back to baseline. It is hopeful to hear this, thank you for...

I am wondering if your Mum is too elderly or even too ill, to maybe visit you at your home? The reason I ask is because it may give you some much...

Left ear for me for sure. Fleeting tinnitus will give radio frequency in both, when it happens. Always an all over head buzz, though.

No apology is needed, @Mins. :huganimation: This forum is here for all of us and without it, I don't know that I would have made it through my...

I feel the same, @shrimp. You have been down this road, like I have, and I believe that we will indeed survive this once again. ❤️

So sorry to hear this, Mnewt2022. I like to think that those who have had tinnitus for a shorter time, may be able to overcome it. Hope is...

Day three seems to be the common denominator, here. Best of luck, hoping your tinnitus will lower, it doesn't seem like too much to ask, we just...

So sorry to hear this, kingsfan. Time may well work in your favor, these spikes can take several months to back off, yet they very well can subside.

My timeline was much the same as yours, my spike became noticeable around day three. I, too, was comfortable and accepting of my tinnitus, so I...

You are welcome. :huganimation: It took almost three months for me to notice an improvement, post booster. I am still far from my original...

You are welcome @Mins ❤️ My heart goes out to you as I completely understand your struggle. Your story does resonate with me, but on a different...

Here are two discussions that may interest you. Omicron Infection — Did It Make Your Tinnitus Worse? Post Your Experience Will You Get...

I am not at all offended, @StoneInFocus so no worries. Another perspective is always needed and welcomed, even. The movie villains weren't always...

You are most certainly allowed to chip in StoneInFocus. We do disagree, this is more than obvious, which is also certainly allowed. "Hope" is...

This was a wonderful read, thank you for posting your thoughts.

100 percent unrefined, organic, cold pressed coconut oil. Great for skin and hair care. Keep it in the fridge and it will last a very long time. I...

WHO: Pfizer vaccine potentially linked to hearing loss

You are welcome, Daystar. Both of you not really wanting to let go means that there is hope. There can be no danger in wanting, and therefore...

Break-ups are so very hard to endure. We all endure this heartache at some point in our lives, some of us even more than once. The one bright spot...

You too, Lane? Welcome! :welcomesignanimation: :D

I have been well, Jcb. Thanks for the sweet compliment. This place was instrumental in helping me navigate my journey with tinnitus, so I always...

:huganimation:Jcb it is lovely to see you on here. How are you?

Religion is belief in someone else's experience. Spirituality is having your own experience.

Thanks, @bobvann. I, too, am triple vaxxed, yet when I got Omicron I was double vaxxed. I did get an increase in loudness with the virus, but it...

Hello, Once! I take long breaks but I will always have much love and gratitude for this forum and its members, many who I will forever call my...

Oh my, you have endured so much for so long. I sincerely hope that something will change for you. Welcome to the forum, and like @Exit said, I...

I believe you are a compassionate and helpful man, @Greg Sacramento :huganimation:The information that you shared in your previous post, is more...

I am in agreement with Dave when he said, and I quote... Five years is a long time and I certainly feel your frustration, it is four years for...

Apology not necessary in my very humble opinion, @bobvann. Bad days can affect us and push us to our limits, everyone here understands.

Yes, this is something that we can all do, Dave. :huganimation:

This is lovely, Tracy. :huganimation:

“Keep your dreams alive. Understand to achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication....

~Your body's ability to heal is greater than anyone has permitted you to believe~

It was a short time after, perhaps three weeks or so. The good news is that my tinnitus has shown some improvement in the last two days, finally....

@glynis and @Elmer B Fuddled These cats could be related!

It took me a good 4 weeks, from beginning to end, to lose the cough and for my voice to sound normal. Even now, if I go for a walk in the cold...

We have something in common, Elmer, only a slight bit of a difference in the timing. I got Omicron "before" my booster. After my booster, give or...
